Driverless Cars

Advanced Navigation, the world’s most determined innovator in artificial intelligence for robotic and navigation technologies…

Sensors and microchips in pavement markers could provide road condition data and shift part of a car’s processing loads to infrastructure, says a research team at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Western Michigan University.

Automobiles and trucks are increasingly equipped with a variety of sensors, many of which can be harnessed to aid in navigation for autonomous vehicles, Hexagon officials said at the recent HxGN Live event.

The software-defined 4Sight+ dramatically increases spatial resolution by 400% and range by 20% to deliver industry-leading path-planning, obstacle avoidance, and prediction capabilities.

Since June 16, the robotaxi that operates without a steering wheel and pedals has been autonomously carrying company employees in Las Vegas, marking another big step toward commercial launch.

This latest $50 Million Series B funding round bolsters the company’s position as a pioneering company digitizing signalized city intersections to help better adapt infrastructure for the rise of autonomous vehicles.

Using a scientist behind the steering wheel disguised as a car seat, researchers find the most expressive signals proved best.

Late last month the organization proposed a similar rule that would require AEB systems in passenger vehicles and light trucks with higher speed capabilities and that would recognize and avoid pedestrians at night.

Last weekend the Indy Autonomous Challenge student/research teams set autonomous speed records at Monza, with the goal to hold the first multicar head-to-head racing competition in 2024.

Much of the discussion at the 2023 dSPACE World Conference involved the integration of increasingly complex electrical and electronic (E/E) systems in today’s advanced automobiles.
