Autonomous vehicles (AV) must be driven hundreds of millions of miles – and sometimes hundreds of billions of miles – to capture sufficient data that can confidently demonstrate a vehicle’s security on the road. This approach to collecting data, however, sees its applicability hindered by two main limitations: (1) high fleet acquisition and maintenance costs […]

Autonomous vehicles (AV) must be driven hundreds of millions of miles – and sometimes hundreds of billions of miles – to demonstrate their reliability in terms of fatalities and injuries. There is a need for alternative methods to supplement real-world testing including virtual testing and simulations, mathematic modeling and analysis, and scenario and behavior testing. In this […]

Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) signal the start of a transformative era in the […]

This article originally appeared on Automotive News. In the first half of 2021, investors showered autonomous-trucking developers such as Plus and TuSimple with a record $5.6 billion. That’s up from $4.2 billion in all of 2020, according to research firm Pitchbook. Class 8 commercial trucks, the tractor trailers you pass every day on the highway, typically […]

Five was founded in Cambridge, England in 2015 to build a complete autonomous vehicle system. Its team of computer scientists, engineers, and roboticists built a Level 4 urban automated driving system which was demonstrated in London in 2019. Five took the lessons from that work and created a platform for the development and safety assurance […]

This article originally appeared on Automotive News. Cloud computing allows Autonomous Vehicle programs to focus on speed and building value Big achievements require big investments, and according to research firm PitchBook, autonomous vehicle (AV) startups spend $1.6M every month on average. The lion’s share of that cost goes into testing and the infrastructure needed to […]
