Why IoT Sensors Need Standards

Cars That Think

The devices have become key enablers for a host of new technologies essential to business and to everyday life, from turning on a light switch to managing one’s health. If the light detection and ranging remote-sensing system lidar fails in semiautonomous vehicles, they will be unable to function properly.

EIA projects decline in transportation sector energy consumption through 2037 despite increase in VMT, followed by increase

Green Car Congress

For the Transportation sector, EIA projects that energy consumption will decline between 2019 and 2037 (in the Reference case) because increases in fuel economy more than offset growth in vehicle miles traveled (VMT). Light-duty vehicle miles traveled increases by 20% in the Reference case, growing from 2.9

LCA study finds connected and automated vehicle subsystems could enable net reduction in vehicle energy use and GHGs by up to 9%

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the University of Michigan and Ford Motor Company have found that using a Level 4 connected and automated vehicle (CAV) subsystem could increase vehicle primary energy use and GHG emissions by 3–20% due to increases in power consumption, weight, drag, and data transmission. —Gawron et al.

Automotive, Telecom and ITS companies carry out first Cellular V2X trial in Japan

Green Car Congress

With a combination of direct and network-based communications between vehicles, infrastructure, and vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians and cyclists, the test results showed that C-V2X can exploit the full potential of connected and intelligent mobility. C-V2X will most likely be implemented initially on the 4.5 GHz ITS spectrum.
