BMW Steering Wheel
This is a steering wheel from a BMW car. It has buttons that let the driver control music, speed, and other things without taking their hands off the wheel.
What does it do?
The steering wheel lets the driver turn the car left or right. The buttons on it let you control the radio volume, change songs, set cruise control, and answer phone calls. This makes driving safer because you don't have to reach for other controls.
Who built it or used it?
BMW is a German company that makes cars. They started in 1916 making airplane engines. Now they make luxury cars and motorcycles. The driver of a BMW car uses this steering wheel every time they drive.
How does it work?
The steering wheel is connected to the car's wheels through a system of gears and rods. When you turn the wheel, the car's front wheels turn. The buttons send signals to the car's computer, which then does what you asked, like turning up the volume.
Before and after
Before, steering wheels were simple circles with no buttons. Drivers had to use separate knobs and switches. Now, steering wheels have many buttons, and some even have touch screens or can sense your hands.
Modern version
Modern BMW steering wheels have more buttons and can even heat up in winter. Some have paddle shifters for changing gears. The design is made to look sporty and feel comfortable.
