Microsoft and NXP have enabled a self-driving car in Las Vegas
NXP Semiconductors and Microsoft along with partners IAV, ESRI, Swiss Re and Cubic Telecom showcased their collective vision of safe and secure end-to-end mobility through a highly automated driving demonstration and experience on the streets of Las Vegas during CES.
In order to handle the real life, real time traffic conditions, the car had to overcome several challenges, including slowing down to avoid pedestrians, counting down to green lights and avoiding road construction. At the same time, the car navigated the city, made dinner reservations at nearby restaurants, enabled in-car purchases and even secured insurance for the passengers. The technology enabling all of this includes Microsoft's Azure cloud, Microsoft Cortana personal assistant and NXP’s automotive RoadLINK products for V2X.
