At the same time, an automatically controlled vehicle will be even safer thanks to the increased interaction with itself and its environment. Taking advantage of Continental’s sensor fusion technology as part of the ContiGuard safety concept, the vehicle is able to track all objects as they enter into the sensors’ field of view.

Of crucial importance in this respect is the networking of all systems, or “sensor fusion”. DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist, BAS PLUS and PRE-SAFE Brake all employ sensor fusion using the same stereo camera and multistage radar sensors. Legal considerations also mean there are no plans to introduce hands-free driving.

All these challenges are supported by studies of legal issues and effectiveness evaluation. The “Emergency braking assistant” reduces or even avoids imminent collisions in the urban environment by situation-specific braking and steering interventions. The system senses the environment as well as the traffic in the lanes.

Multisensor fusion. The sensors are networked (multisensor fusion), and provide a complete image of the surroundings. The sensor and camera technology is active throughout the speed range from standstill to the legally permitted maximum truck speed of 80 km/h. The sensors have a range of 60 m and cover an angle of 170 degrees.

These levels are descriptive rather than normative and technical rather than legal. This expertise will help Ford autonomous vehicles learn and adapt to the surroundings of their environment. This provides Ford another way to develop high-resolution 3D maps of autonomous vehicle environments Silicon Valley expansion.

For just a little more than half that amount, we could fund a fifty-fold increase in spending on R&D for the kind of game-changing technological breakthroughs—like smart grids, ultra-efficient batteries or even cheap, manageable fusion—we will need to end our addiction to fossil fuels. Scenario No. 2: Joint Venture (JV).
