Applications as diverse as delivery drones, self-driving cars, industrial robots and extraplanetary rovers will depend on this emerging field Developers must overcome strict limits to size, power and model flexibility to enable on-device learning in real time, but new research and new design guidelines may help. Look up “lifelong learning” online, … [continued]
This is the 10th CES that Valeo has attended — making it one of the longest-attending automotive brands at what used to be a show about big-screen TVs and refrigerators that connected to your Wi-Fi. That said, CES has come a long way since those early days of the EV … [continued]
Lidar has also become a powerful tool for reclaiming lost histories and building the sustainable, circular economy of the future, too.
Three years ago, in late June 2020, I wrote about Amazon buying the robotaxi startup Zoox. If you missed that story or don’t remember it well, I recommend reading it first for some useful background on who Zoox is, or was. This year, while many robotaxi companies and projects have … [continued]
California has a new law that prohibits automakers and dealers from claiming a car is capable of self-driving if it is not.
I recently went on an exclusive test drive of XPeng’s “City Navigation Guided Pilot” (CNGP) in the city of Guangzhou, China — virtually. I rode in the car via what was basically a Zoom call (Chinese version of Zoom) alongside an XPeng engineer, PR people, and a “driver.” They had … [continued]
Huawei and Volkswagen are said to be considering a self-driving joint venture.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is preparing to rate semi-autonomous driving systems like Tesla’s Autopilot, GM’s Super Cruise, and Ford’s Blue Cruise. The new standards are expect to take effect later this year. In an email to CleanTechnica, Joe Young, the head of media relations for IIHS, says the … [continued]
