The good, the bad and the ugly: EVs and off grid forecasting
When the Mayor of London plans a ban on parking in all new apartment blocks, it is best not to assume, that car sales will go on up forever. Factor in trials of autonomous taxi-buses from Switzerland to New Zealand and the rise in internet shopping using electric delivery vans. They are all going to hit car sales, including taxis. Bill Gates’ Belmont new city in Arizona is being based on more space-efficient, safer, less expensive alternati...
Duo collaborate on automotive radio frequency connections
HUBER+SUHNER, supplier of electrical and optical connectivity, and KOSTAL Kontakt Systeme, provider of automotive contact systems, have reached a framework agreement for a strategic collaboration with a focus on the technology fields of cables and contact/connector systems.
The solution to stop drones from crashing has arrived
At the CES 2018 show in Las Vegas,Leti, research institute of CEA Tech, will demonstrate its low power, low cost 3D anti-crash, fusion-sensor solution for drones.Leti’s 360Fusion software, in combination with miniaturised sensors, collects, analyses and transforms millions of incoming 3D distance data items into relevant, actionable information.
NTAG SmartSensor for smart logistics
NTAG SmartSensor are single-chip Solutions combining NFC connectivity with autonomous sensing, data processing, and logging.
Software enables robots to be controlled in VR
Even as autonomous robots get better at doing things on their own, there will still be plenty of circumstances where humans might need to step in and take control. Software developed by Brown University computer scientists enables users to control robots remotely using virtual reality, which helps users to become immersed in a robot's surroundings despite being miles away physically.
Tiny robots programmed to think like insects
While engineers have had success building tiny, insect-like robots, programming them to behave autonomously like real insects continues to present technical challenges. A group of Cornell engineers has been experimenting with a new type of programming that mimics the way an insect's brain works, which could soon have people wondering if that fly on the wall is actually a fly.
Driverless cars coming to a city near you in 2019
There's a reason there are consumer autonomous systems already being rolled out for highway driving without an equivalent for city driving. Cars on a highway behave rationally for the most part, which makes it easier for the artificial intelligence that controls an autonomous system to operate since it is programmed logically.
