Battery electric vehicles vs hydrogen fuel cell vehicles: Which technology will power the future?

February 14, 2025 by Mark Allinson

Despite all the hype about electric cars, the vast majority of motorists still drive petrol-driven vehicles – approximately 7 percent of new car sales were electric last year.

And while governments have already outlined the phasing out of internal combustion engines, it is by no means certain that this is something that will actually happen – there may be stronger resistance to it closer to the time and the consumers simply might not want to make the switch, despite their best environmental intentions.

The problem is that green cars – most of which are lithium-ion battery powered – are still not quite as good as people want them to be. Electric supercars aside, general production cars that are battery powered tend to have limited range and lack power. It’s the same problem as several years ago, when electric vehicle sales started taking off.

Embotech implements new automated marshalling capabilities in BMW factories

January 28, 2025 by Mark Allinson

Embotech, a provider of autonomous driving solutions for logistics, is partnering with with Outsight, a LiDAR software solutions provider, and Hesai, a LiDAR hardware manufacturer, to deliver cutting-edge LiDAR technology and perception software for Embotech’s AVM technology deployed in BMW facilities and known internally at BMW as Automated Driving In-Plant (AFW).

Within this AVN solution, Outsight plays a key role with its advanced LiDAR software platform that tracks the vehicle and the surrounding obstacles within BMW’s production facilities, while Hesai supplies its industry-leading LiDAR sensors, renowned for their accuracy and reliability, which act as the “eyes” of the AVM system.

Initially implemented for the BMW 5 Series and 7 Series in Dingolfing, is now also in use for the MINI Countryman and other BMW models manufactured in Leipzig. [Read more…] about Embotech implements new automated marshalling capabilities in BMW factories
