Could the recent Cruise debacle in San Francisco have been handled better? What does it mean for the rest of the self-driving industry? To find out, I invited Alex Roy to the AI in Automotive Podcast. Alex is one of the most recognised voices, and an absolute authority in this space. We talk about the incident itself, but also what sort of regulatory framework city authorities might want to consider in order to achieve the right balance between innovation and safety.
With the rise of AI and the commoditisation of cloud infrastructure, the data that cities generate carries immense potential in improving decision making and crashing decision time by orders of magnitude. On this episode of the AI in Automotive Podcast, we talk to Andrew Fleury, CEO of Luna Systems, and Chris Tingley, CEO of EVWare about how their applications of AI can make our cities smarter, safer and more sustainable.
David Hallac, CEO of Viaduct joins the AI in Automotive Podcast to share how his company finds patterns and relationships amongst billions of connected vehicle data points, and delivers two powerful, commercially sound use cases to automotive OEMs. One, it helps automotive OEMs proactively identify and address quality issues, saving hundreds of millions of dollars in warranty costs and recalls. Two, it helps predict failures, call vehicles in for proactive maintenance, and helps bump up up-time - a god-send, especially for fleet customers.
Daniel Langkilde, CEO of Kognic joins the AI in Automotive Podcast to discuss a paradigm shift in delivering autonomous driving at scale. We talk about the current approach of breaking down the problem into perception, prediction and planning, and its limitations. We discuss what future end-to-end approaches based on a ‘common sense’ world model might look like, and why alignment is crucial to solving autonomous driving.
Ben Rathaus, VP of AI and Perception at Arbe Robotics, joins me on the AI in Automotive Podcast to talk all-things-radar. We discuss the history and evolution of radars, their components, and what might create orders of magnitude performance and cost improvements in the future. We also discuss vision-only approaches to AD/ADAS, and why they might be missing a trick without the magic of radar.
Todd Thomas, Chief Revenue Officer at AiDEN Auto, kicks off Season 04 of the AI in Automotive Podcast with a super enlightening conversation about why in-vehicle connected services have not really taken off yet, and why believes that is all about to change. We unearth some amazing insights on what makes the car ready to make the next leap to becoming a modern connected device.
Gary Brotman, CEO of Secondmind, joins me on the AI in Automotive Podcast to talk to us about the role of AI in accelerating the automotive design process. Secondmind’s platform uses the power of AI to help engineers get to the optimal solution to complex multi-dimensional problems in the most time-efficient and resource-efficient manner, accelerating the design process.
In this episode of the AI in Automotive Podcast, Bibhrajit Halder, Founder & CEO of SafeAI joins me to share how the idea of autonomy originated, how it evolved from 1.0 to 2.0, and how it might evolve in the future to 3.0 and 4.0. We also talk about the application of autonomous driving in the mining and construction industries, and how SafeAI is using AI to seriously disrupt the mining industry.
In this episode of the AI in Automotive Podcast, Jorit Schmelzle, co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Peregrine Technologies joins us for a wide-ranging discussion covering topics from sensor fusion, to understanding the automotive perception stack, and how ordinary smartphones can deliver interesting use-cases for the vision and perception stack.
Paul Drysch, CEO of PreAct Technologies joins us on the AI in Automotive Podcast to give us a crash course on LiDARs, their types and flavours. We also talk about what the sensor suite in future cars might look like, and where PreAct’s low-cost, short-range LiDAR fits in.
Marc Bolitho, CEO of Recogni, joins us on the AI in Automotive Podcast to talk about the fundamentals and design process of EE architectures, the limitations of current processors, and how Recogni’s product promises to meet the computational demands of a modern car without breaking a sweat.
Leaf Jiang, CEO of NODAR, joins us on the AI in Automotive Podcast to explain how NODAR’s technology can use a pair of cameras to deliver accurate point clouds with high resolution and precise depth perception, making vision-only self-driving a reality.
Hemant Sikaria, CEO and Co-founder of Sibros, joins the AI in Automotive Podcast to talk about over-the-air updates as the foundation of the software-defined vehicle, and how the technology magically enables our cars to get better over time.
