Cybercab has an internal Photo Booth application you can play with while taking a ride

After your ride ends, Tesla uses the cabin camera to check whether the Cybercab is ready for its next passenger. That includes whether the cabin is clean and whether you left anything behind.
@wholemars
Cybercab has an in cabin radar mounted above the dome lights. It is used primarily to control how airbags should be fired. The radar is sophisticated enough to identify passengers size & weight and optimize airbag response based on that.
@wholemars
The Cybercab two seats move forward or backward together, but can recline independently.
@wholemars
Cybercab’s motorized seat belts do more than tighten themselves. They can vibrate or pulse to provide haptic feedback and get the passenger’s attention. They can also proactively tighten when Cybercab anticipates or detects harsh braking, loss of traction or another sudden road

Cybercab UI is built on Unreal Engine. Tesla specifically credits Epic Games

$TSLA just released a new Cybercab launch video declaring “the future has arrived.” The messaging is clearly shifting toward Cybercab as a product Tesla is preparing to put on the road. https://t.co/StB6HQ2WNl
