The idea of building Hack Road came to McCoy.

Hack Road uses new hardware approach like like 3-D printing.
His idea was to leverage machine learning.
After all, the Internet of Things, all these trillions of computers, are bored.
Theyve got sensors….theyre starting to form their own opinions.
[And] whats in self-driving cars today are in your shoes tomorrow.
ThatsMoores Law, explained McManus.
McCoy saw that the Autodesks reality capture can be used to build a complete car.
They came up with a car resembling Shelby Cobra and powered by a Ducati engine.
