SAE International launches 12-week robotics for autonomous vehicle systems training ‘Bootcamp’

April 14, 2021 by Elaine Leave a Comment

Virtual 12-week experience provides career development opportunities for engineers entering the fast-growing autonomous vehicles industry

SAE International has announced the new 12-week Robotics for Autonomous Vehicle Systems Bootcamp for recent graduates and/or entry-level mechanical, electrical and computer science engineers joining the industry to support autonomous vehicle (AV) system development.

In partnership with Clemson University and Argo AI, SAE designed the rigorous, virtual-only workforce development experience to provide participants with an in-depth technical understanding of how to build autonomous systems.

“Companies can spend upwards of 10 months onboarding entry-level AV positions, which in this fast-moving industry can directly hinder the development and deployment cycles. The Robotics for Autonomous Vehicle Systems Bootcamp aims to support both employers and professionals by bridging the training gap through an accelerated 12-week bootcamp,” said Elizabeth Melville, director of learning at SAE International.

How do self-driving cars work?

November 18, 2020 by Liv Leave a Comment

Self-driving cars are gaining more and more attention in recent times. They are an incredibly brilliant invention that proves how vastly technology is shaping our lives.

Sure, they are expensive, but their impact is far greater than probably any other AI or technological innovation. They have already been tested and proved to be safer than human-driven cars.

Are you ready to know more about this revolutionary travel miracle? Then keep on reading! [Read more…] about How do self-driving cars work?

Mercedes-Benz pioneers new automated driving software

October 30, 2020 by Liv Leave a Comment

Mercedes-Benz stands out among its competitors in the race for autonomy in one important way, reports the Economic Times – in its reliance on its own engineers (rather than the general public) to validate its new advanced driver assistance system.

Most recently, the German firm announced that it has developed a similar system to Tesla’s Fully Self Driving Software. This system is currently being tested and promises to reduce accident rates in a dramatic way, since computers have an ability to react to road hazards much faster than human beings do.

What features does this system promise and when is it likely to appear on public roads? [Read more…] about Mercedes-Benz pioneers new automated driving software

How Smartphones Can Impact Autonomous Vehicles

June 30, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

With the recent advancements in technology, the world is expecting more impressive breakthroughs in the future.

Even though some of the major tech companies around the world have been experimenting with driverless technology, and a couple have also released vehicles that offer users the feature, it still needs more improvements.

The changes in traffic can lead to much safer and more organized roads, as the steering wheels will be replaced with technology. [Read more…] about How Smartphones Can Impact Autonomous Vehicles

6 Ways Autonomous Vehicles Will Impact Life As We Know It

June 22, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

In 2015, Google, under Alphabet Inc, produced the first autonomous (self-driving) car, and today we have more than 19 autonomous parts manufacturers in the world. In the US, automated vehicles have already started roaming the streets and integrated with self-driven cars.

Based on that, researchers have moved from wondering if these cars should exist to observe how they potentially impact cities and their residents if all vehicles become autonomous. Additionally, it’s been estimated that by 2035, 10 percent of road vehicles will be autonomous, and by 2050, that number will increase significantly to over 50 percent. This will, no doubt, impact life as we know it.

In this article, we will further examine the ways autonomous vehicles will impact our lives, from little things all the way to the big ones. [Read more…] about 6 Ways Autonomous Vehicles Will Impact Life As We Know It

The Future for Contactless Delivery

May 27, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

By D. A. Rupprecht

The future for contactless product delivery is already here, and a pandemic seems to already be moving this trend forward.

It just needs companies to implement and customers to accept the new delivery and tracking methods, along with other innovations, that will make this so.

When this happens, we may one day look back and quietly thank the lowly coronavirus for catapulting us into a brighter future. [Read more…] about The Future for Contactless Delivery

Bosch and Daimler to pilot automated driving in California

August 16, 2019 by Anna

Bosch and Daimler have chosen in a city located in the San Francisco Bay in Silicon Valley, California, as the pilot location for a first test fleet developing fully-automated and driverless driving.

Bosch and Daimler will offer customers a shuttle service with automated vehicles on selected routes. Daimler Mobility Services is envisaged as the operator of this test fleet and the app-based mobility service.

The pilot project will demonstrate how mobility services such as car sharing (car2go), ride-hailing (mytaxi) and multi-modal platforms (moovel) can be intelligently connected to shape the future of mobility.

Volvo Trucks autonomous vehicle to link logistics centre and Gothenburg port

July 18, 2019 by Anna

Volvo Trucks’ electric, connected and autonomous vehicle Vera will form part of an integrated solution to transport goods from a logistics centre to a port terminal in Gothenburg, Sweden.

The assignment is a result of a new collaboration between Volvo Trucks and the ferry and logistics company, DFDS.

The purpose of the collaboration is to use Vera in a real application, enabling a connected system for a continuous flow of goods, from a DFDS’ logistics centre to an APM Terminals port facility in Gothenburg, for distribution across the world.

The cooperative car: Intuitively knowing what the car is planning

February 22, 2019 by Anna

Autonomous driving is going to be an integral part of mobility in the future. Mercedes-Benz considers empathy and trust to be central factors for the acceptance of self-driving vehicles.

Because for people to have trust in the machine, they must immediately and intuitively be able to recognise what an autonomous vehicle intends to do. Mercedes-Benz is conducting research into this “informed trust” with the help of the “cooperative car”.

The cooperative car is based on an S-Class, and features 360-degree light signalling. Turquoise lights on the roof indicate autonomous driving mode, and provide information on what happens next:

Toyota Research Institute unveils P4 automated driving test vehicle

January 17, 2019 by Anna

Toyota Research Institute (TRI) showed the TRI-P4 automated driving test vehicle at CES last week. The P4 is based on the all-new fifth-generation Lexus LS flagship sedan and will be used in TRI’s two-track Guardian and Chauffeur automated driving system development.

The P4 has Lexus’ new generation of chassis and steering control technology, which provides greater agility and allows for more responsive and smoother manoeuvres during automated driving.

It has two additional cameras to improve situational awareness on the sides and two new imaging sensors―one facing forward and one pointed to the rear―specifically designed for autonomous vehicles. The imaging sensors feature new chip technology with high dynamic range.
