Living on the edge with AI
As Richard Kingston, VP, Market Intelligence, CEVA explains, we have entered the fourth Industrial Revolution. And, like the three that went before it (mechanisation; mass production and electricity; computers and automation), Industry 4.0 is set to change the way we live.
Infrastructure for ADAS algorithm development expanded
Version 2.5 of vADASdeveloper from Vector provides comprehensive support for developers of multisensor applications for ADAS and automated driving. Through graphical configuration of object information Vector's tool quickly and easily visualises sensor data. Users get new display windows and can integrate reference lidar systems in order to simplify the interpretation of object data and the results of fusion.
Don’t let the lawyers stop us saving lives
Steve Rogerson reports from last month’s AutoSens conference in Brussels.There is no single sensor technology that can handle the complexities of data gathering that will be essential if the vision of autonomous vehicles is going to be realised. As such, car makers and their tier-one suppliers are wrestling with the difficulties of finding the best mix of vision systems, radar, lidar, ultrasonics and even sonar to provide the car with the n...
Lights, camera, action – Hollywood gives us a glimpse into the future
The 4th Industrial Revolution will change, and is changing the way we live our lives. Systems are now controlled and monitored by computer algorithms rather than by humans, and this is happening very quickly and across all industries.
RTI joins AUTOSAR development group
The Industrial Internet of Things connectivity company, Real-Time Innovations (RTI), has joined the AUTomotive Open Systems ARchitecture (AUTOSAR) development group as a development partner. It was nominated by an AUTOSAR core partner and was approved by the group’s steering committee. RTI will contribute to the development of the AUTOSAR standard, sharing the company’s expertise in Industrial systems and specifically, autonomous vehi...
Pulsed laser dioes meet high automotive demands
LASER COMPONENTS has announced that the first of its products has achieved qualification for use in the automotive industry. Pulsed Laser Diodes (PLD) with a wavelength of 905nm are key components for the LiDAR technology (Light Detection and Ranging) used in autonomous driving.
Connectivity drives reliability in autonomous cars
Emerging wireless and cellular 5G technologies are bringing a new level of connectivity to cars and enabling many applications to support safety, efficiency, and Internet access. Connectivity is a natural complement to other kinds of automotive sensors that are also being integrated in vehicles.
Project puts autonomous vehicles on the roads around Oxford
On the 5th September 2017, DRIVEN consortium unveiled the first three of its proposed fleet of six self-driving vehicles, a white and blue 2014 Ford Fusion Titanium hybrid, a 2017 Ford Mondeo hybrid and a Range Rover Evoque.
Sensing changes in the automotive sensor market
The automotive market has witnessed many unexpected developments over the past two years, despite its age and maturity. As has always been the case, safety drives the market. Automotive OEMs and suppliers are now investing in technologies to develop autonomous and electric vehicles. Automation will spur the development of imaging and detection sensors like cameras, LiDAR, and radar, while electrification will boost the design of current and therm...
