SAE, the international engineers’ association, has released a revised set of definitions for autonomous driving.
The new version keeps SAE’s original six levels of automation, from 0 to 5, but provides more clarification.
The organization explains some aspects of it in its new document, available free on its website. [Read more…] about SAE releases new autonomous car definitions
Determined not to miss out like it did on the smartphone revolution, Intel is developing 100 of its own autonomous cars.
Intel is still the largest chipmaker in the world in many sectors but in mobile computing technology, other companies have taken the lead.
But there’s not many things as mobile as a road-going vehicle, and newer versions of them need more chips than ever. [Read more…] about Intel to build fleet of 100 autonomous vehicles
Newly appointed US Transport Secretary Elaine Chao says the Trump administration will have a catalysing effect on the autonomous car industry.
Chao made her first public remarks on the subject while speaking at the National Governors Association, as reported by Reuters.
Chao said: “This administration is evaluating this guidance and will consult with you and other stakeholders as we update it and amend it, to ensure that it strikes the right balance.”
She added that the Trump administration wanted to ensure it “is a catalyst for safe, efficient technologies, not an impediment. In particular, I want to challenge Silicon Valley, Detroit, and all other auto industry hubs to step up and help educate a skeptical public about the benefits of automated technology”.

The International Standards Organisation and SAE International, the engineers’ association, have entered a “pilot agreement” for the joint development of new technical standards and harmonization of existing standards.
The new Partnership Standards Development Organization (PSDO) cooperation agreement will apply in two areas, Road Vehicles (ISO TC22) and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ISO TC204).
David Schutt, CEO of SAE International, says: “This important agreement is a response to the transformational changes taking place in many global industries, including mobility engineering. Increasing technological complexity must be addressed through collaborative efforts in standardization to avoid duplication and reduce cost across the global network of automotive business partners.

Global association of engineers publishes guidelines on vehicle-to-vehicle technology
SAE International has published two new technical standards that standardize the data message sets used in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications and establish the parameters for a vehicle communication system to receive and transmit the message sets.
In a statement, SAE says these new “cross-cutting” industry standards allow vehicle OEM’s and other developers to build interoperable V2V systems that will ensure that vehicles from different manufacturers are able to successfully communicate with each other.
