How Inertial Systems and GNSS Availability Will Help
Self-driving cars in urban environments can be problematic. The required multi-sensor automated systems will include GNSS, but buildings block and reflect GNSS signals, reducing system availability and accuracy. Researchers from the Illinois Institute of Technology report on how inertial navigation systems coupled with wheel-speed sensors and vehicle dynamic constraints can help.
The mass introduction of self-driving cars onto public roads will require overcoming ethical challenges. As a society, we will have to agree on a uniform set of ethical codes.
A spoofing experiment exposed cybersecurity issues with the Tesla Model 3, potentially affecting all vehicles relying on GPS as part of their sensor fusion.
To grab a larger piece of the burgeoning connected and autonomous vehicle markets, digital mapmaker TomTom launched its […]
