autonomous vehicles

In this video the Rocking Robots team takes a look some very different innovations presented at automatica 2023. RoboDK has developed software to program robots in a Digital Twin, and distributing this with one click to the whole robot fleet, independent of manufacturer. Fer Robotics makes dangerous and dirty work easier, and Motorcortex has developed software for autonomous vehicles. In this video we speak to Albert Nubiola RoboDK; Philippe Piatkiewitz, Motorcortex; Ronald Naderer, FerRobotics.

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced the opening of three new engineering hubs in Germany, Italy and Spain. The hubs will focus on developing next-generation autonomous technologies, creating nearly 100 new jobs in the process.

Ford is testing AI technology for automated driving to make the production process even more efficient. For this project, the new cars not only drive themselves off the production line but also to the final checkpoint. Then, they charge themselves and park themselves for transport to the customer.

Siemens Digital Industries Software announced that MobileDrive has adopted a model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approach to support its Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) development, using the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio and its comprehensive digital twin technology.

Ford Motor Company has established Latitude AI, a wholly owned subsidiary focused on developing an autonomous driving system. With this move, Ford gains a team of developers in machine learning, robotics, software, sensors, systems engineering, and operations who will work on automated driving technology.

The Indy Autonomous Challenge team PoliMOVE from Politecnico di Milano (Italy), and the University of Alabama (Alabama) won the second annual Autonomous Challenge at  CES reaching max speeds of 180 mph, a new autonomous speed world record for a racetrack.

Autonomous vehicle (AV) technology is heading to the mainstream, says NVIDIA at CES. The NVIDIA DRIVE ecosystem showcased significant milestones toward widespread intelligent transportation. Growth is occurring in vehicle deployment plans as well as AI solutions integrating further into the car.

Robots and autonomous cars will have eyes that see much more than the human eye is capable of, a review of the growing field of meta-optics has found.

Self-driving cars, or autonomous vehicles, have long been earmarked as the next generation mode of transport. To enable the autonomous navigation of such vehicles in different environments, many different technologies relating to signal processing, image processing, artificial intelligence deep learning, edge computing, and IoT, need to be implemented.

Clevon, Estonian provider of autonomous delivery vehicles, performed its first U.S. autonomous delivery with CLEVON 1, the company’s flagship multi-platform all-electric robot courier at the AllianceTexas Mobility Innovation Zone (MIZ) in Fort Worth.
