But I agree with the other ones. Quite a few of them might need better recognition of weight restrictions and other such rules on roadways, though. It in theory shouldn't be hard to develop (self-driving tech already either reads signs or sources data from previous mappings of roads where said signs have been read), but I wouldn't be surprised if this info hasn't yet been catalogued yet.
- dsfyu404ed 10y agoI don't own an iphone (my girlfriend does). As far as weight restrictions and stuff, I'm talking even simpler than that. The geospatial data and a lot of the traffic flow is already there. It would be an "summer intern size" project to figure out an algorithm that does an ok job identifying route features and traffic flow situations that are not trailer friendly or delivery vehicle friendly (left turns suck). Even for something other than commercial vehicles this is important. Anyone driving a mini-bus with a student/church/summer camp group will run into a route with a really bad intersection or turn.
