NEXYAD presenting a disruptive approach of real time driving risk assessment for car insurance, fleets, ADAS, autonomous driving The CEO of NEXYAD was a speaker in the car electronics congress CESA Automotive (5th and 5th of December 2018, in Versailles, France). The presentation was about the major difference between ADAS and Autonomous Driving mindsets, even if the skills (sensors, fusion, ...) are quite the same. In particular, was presented the graph tree of driving situations :   Then it was explained that... [Lire la suite]

Free Space detection in real time on standard architectures such as smartphones Here is the demo of RoadNex free space detection on a regular smartphone. Free space is detected in real time. On this version, "distant  sidewalks" are integrated into free space (it is an option) because sidewalks without pedestrians may be a option to avoid accident if it is not possible to brake as short as need and is the street is full of users. No need for a NVIDIA heavy computing architecture, no need for a MOBILEYE chip, etc ... Only the... [Lire la suite]

REAL TIME DRIVING RISK ASSESSMENT MODULE SafetyNex RECUDES ACCIDENT RATE BY 20% SafetyNex is a XAI technology (eXplanable Artificial Inteligence : see DARPA research program) that compute in real time (example : 20 times by second) the risk that the driver is currently taking. . If driver is a human being, applications are :       . Vocal Driving Assistant : alert driver when risk rises too much, making driver slow down and avoid accident (reduces            accident rate by... [Lire la suite]

NEXYAD FREE SPACE DETECTION (RoadNex) : IN REAL TIME ON A REGULAR COMPUTER NEXYAD proposes RoadNex that detects borders of the road with or without markings (important in cities and countryside), that also detects free space. All RoadNex features run in real time on a standard computer (even on a smartphone). Here is free space detection on a dirty road (real conditions ...)   To read and watch more : https://nexyad.net/Automotive-Transportation/NEXYAD_presentation.pdf

NEXYAD real time driving risk assessment for ADAS, Autonomous Driving, Car Insurance, and Fleet Management at INTEMPORA TECHDAY This congress organized by INTEMPORA was impressive and gathered the French community of ADAS and Autonomous Driving around demos and presentations. Congrats to INTEMPORA. The technology SafetyNex (real time driving risk assesment algorithm developed by NEXYAD) was truely appreciated and we could discuss about applications. The MOVEO Groupement ADAS made good présentations too. This was a good congress... [Lire la suite]

Nexyad presenting SafetyNex : application to car insurance at Finance & Innovation Congress in Paris SafetyNex Real Time Driving Risk Assessment is used by car insurers to alert driver and to reduce accident rate by 20%, including personal injuries. The ROI of SafetyNex is then very easy to calculate and it is phenomenal ! In addition, SafetyNex records real “insurance-friendly” data such as RISK PROFILES and USAGE PROFILES already validated on million kilometers. There is work to do from SafetyNex data (by insurer’s data... [Lire la suite]

Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) : a new trend for Autonomous Driving Autonomous Driving is a field of application of Artificial Intelligence, and especially of Deep Learning. But the fact is that Deep Learning cannot explain its behaviour. For Autonomous Driving, in case of accident, it is necessary to understand if the Autonomous Vehicle made a mistake and if yes, to know what this mistake is, why, and how to fix it. Then it is necessary to develop a new kind of Artificial Intelligence system called : eXplanable... [Lire la suite]
