ADAS and autonomous vehicle testing: what does the future hold? It has become an almost unavoidable cliché to say ADAS and autonomous vehicle development is evolving at an accelerated rate. Self-driving car trials are under way in many cities around the world as governments and the automotive industry itself strive to make roads safer. But as the automated systems and sensor arrays become more complex, so too have the methods required to develop, test and evaluate them. So what does the future hold for ADAS and autonomous vehicle... [Lire la suite]

TELEMATICS MARKET - GROWTH, TRENDS, AND FORECAST (2019 - 2024) Market Overview The global telematics market is expected to register a CAGR of 20.7%, over the forecast period (2019-2024). The focus shifted from vehicle location and routing to solutions focused on drivers and their respective safety. By monitoring the driving behavior, vehicle health and maintenance intervals, telematics solutions help minimize accidental incidents, the number of speeding tickets, and downtime. The mobile resource management (MRM -... [Lire la suite]

How China will help fuel the revolution in autonomous vehicles If the driverless-car phenomenon takes off in China, the payoff could be in the trillions of dollars. Self-driving cars could steer China’s automotive industry into the passing lane. From driverless taxis to automated cargo trucks, autonomous vehicles (AVs) will change the nature of on-road driving and, in the process, revolutionize the automotive and mobility industries. Within this mix of opportunity and uncertainty, we believe AV players (from... [Lire la suite]

Self-driving cars have long road to travel before they go public Visitors try out Bosch's autonomous shuttle bus concept model at this year's Shanghai auto show. [Photo by Long Wei/For China Daily] Private autonomous vehicles will not hit public roads soon because of safety and cost, according to a senior executive at leading supplier of technology and services Bosch. "It still has a long way to go, 2050 will be too far away. But not in 2022 or so, like some others say," said Peter Tyroller, a Bosch board member responsible for... [Lire la suite]

Minimum Cost Matching for Autonomous Carsharing Carsharing programs provide an alternative to private vehicle ownership. Combining car-sharing programs with autonomous vehicles would improve user access to vehicles thereby removing one of the main challenges to widescale adoption of these programs. While the ability to easily move cars to meet demand would be significant for carsharing programs, if implemented incorrectly it could lead to worse system performance. In this paper, we seek to improve the performance of a fleet of shared... [Lire la suite]

AI-Based Automotive HMI Software Market to Reach $4.6 Billion Worldwide by 2025 Voice and Speech Recognition Applications Will Be the Major Driver of Growth, Followed by Driver Face Analytics, Emotion Recognition, and Gesture Recognition As vehicles grow increasingly connected and become packed with sensors, artificial intelligence (AI)-based technologies have the potential to play a significant role in the human-machine interface (HMI), according to a new report from Tractica. Voice-enabled smart assistants for car controls,... [Lire la suite]

Autonomous Trucks Could Radically Transform U.S. Logistics Within a Decade A new report predicts fully autonomous trucks being used in regular operations in little more than a decade. (Above) Test trucks run in a truck platoon on a closed course for evaluation purposes earlier this year. Eight years. That’s how long McKinsey & Company, a global logistics think tank based in the United States and Europe, predicts it will be before autonomous trucks with no humans on board could be routinely running routes in North America. ...

GAUGING THE DISRUPTIVE POWER OF ROBO-TAXIS IN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING The self-driving taxi could ultimately take the global auto industry on a wild ride. Our use-case approach reveals why. Personal mobility could change profoundly in the next two decades. Consumers, who increasingly view mobility as a service, want more choices for traveling between points A and B, including ride hailing, car sharing, and perhaps even self-driving “robo-taxis.” For automakers, the proposed changes could replace the industry’s traditional emphasis on...

Disruption that makes autonomous driving level 5 possible : SafetyNex technology Most consultant and experts on automotive prospection tend to postpone the arrival of full autonomous driving. Their method is simple : they consider the current level 3 autonomous systems, and they estimate the number of examples in a database and the number of operation calculation should be done to improve the level 3 and cover "every" use cases. But this method is wrong. Indeed, the current AD Systems can be described as a chain as follow... [Lire la suite]

Aftermarket ADAS: A Huge Growth Projected in Recent Study “The aftermarket segment for ADAS systems in the United States currently is approximately a $976-million opportunity, growing to $1.51 billion at a 9-10-percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in 2021,” a recent study produced by Ducker Research for the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) states. The SEMA Advanced Vehicle Technology Opportunity Study provides industry members with an in-depth analysis on the current and forecasted shape of the... [Lire la suite]
