Following on the launch of its first software developer program ( earlier post ), Ford is now turning its attention to the growing trend in hardware hacking by transforming vehicles into an experimental development environment. The read-only system is designed to keep everything isolated from the vehicle control systems.

I was interested in the design and operation of airplanes and spacecraft.” People were really interested in clean air and clean water, so I decided there would always be interest in the environment,” Crawford says. You study many areas in civil engineering, including structures, soils, transportation, and the environment,” she says.

VR headsets allow students to immerse themselves in realistic digital environments to learn math and science by solving real-world problems, such as calculating how high a house’s foundation should be raised to offset the risk of flooding. The system is essentially being designed alongside the schools that are using it.”

A single torus wheel is made of an elastic elongated coil spring in which the two ends of the coil connected each other and is driven by a piezoelectric actuator (stator) that can generate 2-degrees-of-freedom (axial and angular) motions. We propose a palm-sized omnidirectional mobile robot with two torus wheels. Paper ] Thanks, Ayato!

Most groups developing autonomous vehicles see lidar as a critical part of the sensor suite required for safe operation, because it allows a detailed 3D map of the vehicle’s environment to be constructed with much more fidelity than can be done with cameras. While lidar manufacturers have made progress, the industry isn’t there just yet.
