Simulating Reality: The Importance Of Synthetic Data In AI/ML Systems For Radar Applications
By Arien Sligar - 09 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) are driving the development of next-generation radar perception. However, these AI/ML-based perception models require enough data to learn patterns and relationships to make accurate predictions on new, unseen data and scenarios. In the field of radar applications, the data used to train these models is often collected from real-world meas... » read more

Why Geofencing Will Enable L5
By Marie C. Baca - 19 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 1

What will it take for a car to be able to drive itself anywhere a human can? Ask autonomous vehicle experts this question and the answer invariably includes a discussion of geofencing. In the broadest sense, geofencing is simply a virtual boundary around a physical area. In the world of self-driving cars, it describes a crucial subset of the operational design domain — the geographic regio... » read more

The great EV ramp EV-related developments are everywhere. California’s move to ban sales of new internal-combustion vehicles by 2035, and the U.S. government’s sweeping embrace of clean-energy, are in lockstep with recent moves by the auto industry and related supply chains, as well as cutting-edge research. One of the big breakthroughs is the ability to charge an EV in 10 minutes witho... » read more

Improving Safety And Security For Tomorrow’s Autonomous Vehicles
By Yankin Tanurhan - 01 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

With the evolution of autonomous vehicles, today’s cars are becoming both more connected and complex. Consumers and suppliers worldwide are demanding much more intelligence and customization, which adds pressure on product development teams to validate the underlying technology and start their design processes months earlier. Enhancements in hardware and software features also mean that the w... » read more

Driver Monitoring Raises Complexity, Adds Privacy Concerns
By Marie C. Baca - 01 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 0

While you watch the road, your car may be watching you back. The automotive industry’s transition toward self-driving technology means cars increasingly are equipped with features that measure driver alertness and engagement, among many other data points. Executives say such features save lives and spur innovation, while simultaneously raising significant technical, legal, and ethical questio... » read more

L5 Adoption Hinges on 5G/6G
By Marie C. Baca - 31 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 1

Truly self-driving cars don’t yet exist, and research shows many consumers are wary of them anyway. What will it take to make fully autonomous cars possible? And how can automakers convince consumers to adopt such vehicles? Experts say the answer to both questions could lie in wireless communication networks. That’s because such networks offer a workaround to a major obstacle in autonomo... » read more

Challenges Grow For Modeling Auto Performance, Power
By Ann Mutschler - 17 Aug, 2022 - Comments: 0

Rising complexity in automobiles is creating huge challenges about how to add more safety and comfort features and electronics into vehicles without reducing the overall range they can travel or pricing them so high that only the rich can afford them. While the current focus is on modeling hardware and software to understand interactions between systems, this remains a huge challenge. It req... » read more
