General Motors and Red Hat partner to develop software-defined vehicles

August 10, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Automotive giant General Motors and open source software provider Red Hat have formed a partnership to “help advance software-defined vehicles at the edge”.

The companies expect to expand an ecosystem of innovation around the Red Hat In-Vehicle Operating System, which provides a functional-safety certified Linux operating system foundation intended for the ongoing evolution of GM’s Ultifi software platform.

The collaboration between Red Hat and GM is a significant moment in the convergence of the transportation and technology industries, with Red Hat’s cloud-native, enterprise-grade open source operating system accelerating the development of GM’s software-defined vehicle programs following Ultifi’s initial launch.

Embark demonstrates its autonomous trucks’ emergency vehicle interaction capabilities

August 5, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Embark Trucks, a developer of autonomous technology for the trucking industry, has completed a public demonstration of its emergency vehicle interaction capability.

Working closely with the Texas Department of Public Safety and the Travis County Sheriff’s Office, Embark developed the capability for Embark-powered trucks to identify and stop for law enforcement vehicles in situations such as traffic stops, and built communication protocols and standard operating procedures between autonomous trucks and law enforcement officers.

This represents the first-ever public demonstration of an autonomous truck being pulled over by law enforcement and participating in a routine traffic stop on a public highway. [Read more…] about Embark demonstrates its autonomous trucks’ emergency vehicle interaction capabilities

Interview: BlueBotics brings warehouse robotics experts to your screen

July 17, 2022 by Abdul Montaqim Leave a Comment

BlueBotics has been around for 20 years. And in that time, it has become one of the leading providers of navigation technology for warehouse robots such as automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots. In doing so, the company has become something of a fount of knowledge about the subject, and thought it would provide that knowledge as an online resource through its newly created website ANTdriven.com.

In this interview, conducted by Abdul Montaqim, Robotics and Automation News speaks to Matt Wade, head of marketing for BlueBotics, about the ANTdriven.com resource as well as wider issues relating to the entire warehouse automation sector.

This interview is available in video form on our YouTube channel, and is embedded below. Questions and answers have been edited for clarity and brevity. [Read more…] about Interview: BlueBotics brings warehouse robotics experts to your screen

Junk car buyers and why you should consider them

June 29, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

One of the worst things anyone can experience at a random moment is a lack of cash. This can be further compounded if you have a piece of damaged heavy machinery lying around and taking up real estate. This piece of heavy machinery is almost always a car and it can be a problem that no one wants to deal with.

This is where the junk car buyer Junkcarsus or a salvage yard comes in to help you. The Junkcarsus businesses specialize in the buying of old or damaged cars which can then be salvaged for parts or resold as a whole.

Such dealing opportunities are essentially a way out for people trying to be relieved of the burden of having a beat-up car taking up space. At the same time, they will give you a quick payday for something that you don’t even want. [Read more…] about Junk car buyers and why you should consider them
