This is the topic that I feel SDC enthusiasts forget. Not everything HAS TO BE AI. And we could maybe make steps towards SDC, not fantastic leaps that get people killed and really just get government involved where it doesn't need to be yet.
We could replace the ABS/ESP/traction control systems in current vehicles with a machine learning / deep learning system absolutely - that's not sexy though!
No one wants increments, they want whole self-driving cars right now - and while I have opinions about that, there is no doubt it's driving (pun intended) the industry.
Ideally, at first, we'd see components in consumer vehicles, and completely automated long haul trucks from A to B determined routes - but like I said, not sexy.
- couchand 9y ago> Ideally, at first, we'd see components in consumer vehicles We do, though. Look at the cruise control or auto-park on a vehicle produced in the last few years. The totally autonomous car may make headlines, but these sorts of features will be what really make the technology ubiquitous.
- SlowRobotAhead 9y agoI work on ECUs like this. High end stuff is doing computer vision, but 99% of what is on the road is pre-calibrated motor/solenoid control and that’s all. Even adaptive cruise, steel camera object “detection” are just pretty simple systems. Almost nothing is doing even pieces of what the whole-package SDCs are.
