Old folks up in arms against autonomous technology, according to new survey

by

Millions of elderly people are shaking their walking sticks at driverless cars and other autonomous machines, according to a new survey by MIT. 

The New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA) and MIT AgeLab say the results of their joint survey of consumers on autonomous technology and transportation alternatives shows that older consumers are resistant to allowing artificially intelligent machines complete control.

Bryan Reimer, research scientist MIT AgeLab and associate director of the New England University Transportation Center, says: “Penetration of fully automated vehicles into the mobility space is going to take time and will vary greatly across different regions of the world.  [Read more…] about Old folks up in arms against autonomous technology, according to new survey

Airbus is extending its use of Dassault Systèmes’ 3d design applications to its advanced manufacturing operations. 

Airbus, maker of airplanes and satellites among other aerospace products, undertook two years of testing before extending its use of Dassault Systèmes’ 3DExperience platform to its additive manufacturing programs integrating design, simulation and production.

Airbus Group will deploy Dassault Systèmes’ collaborative design and simulation applications as part of the “Co-Design to Target” industry solution experience, for the additive manufacturing of tooling, prototyping and parts for test flights and for production use on commercial aircraft.  [Read more…] about Airbus decides to use Dassault Systèmes 3D apps for advanced manufacturing operations
