Vehicle Automation Technology
There are thousands of prototype automated vehicles currently under development in the U.S. and around the world. There are hundreds of organizations utilizing these vehicles for multiple purposes, but all aimed toward the goal of building the foundation for the practical deployment of autonomous vehicles. The technical and investment focus in this current phase is on two areas: AI driving and perception/sensing. The third part of a robotic system is the actuation, or the muscle of the system. This part of the AV system, direct control of the vehicle motion, is crucial to the business success of most, if not all, of the AV concepts under development. As a provider of robotic (drive-by-wire) vehicle platforms to over 100 companies in North America, Europe, and Asia, Dataspeed Inc. has the unique perspective of working with many of the leading AV developers regarding their vehicle motion control needs. This presentation will provide an overview of the current solutions and future projections for this crucial part of the automated vehicle system.
