I'm looking forward to those things as well. But bicycles don't have brake assist. It takes a very sophisticated collision detection system to prevent right-hooking a cyclist.
Electric assist bikes/mopeds will let most cyclists safely keep up with traffic in the kinds of places where you have to worry about those kinds of collisions, bike lanes will go the way of the dodo and car traffic will no longer have to take right turns across a lane of (bike) traffic.
Having a traffic pattern that requires a right turn (or left for certain countries) across a different lane of traffic is shitty and when a better solution shows up it will probably be implemented.
