Indian startup working on a universal autopilot for trucks Source:

The Indian company Flux Auto decided to create our own autopilot, which can be fitted to almost any truck. Its main difference from other similar projects is that the technology offered by the Hindus, will cost much cheaper, and this means that you can upgrade your truck virtually any small business owner.

The startup Team consists of sixteen people, some of them engaged in the program development of computer vision. It will help the autopilot to dispense with expensive lidars. They successfully replace a quality camera and appropriate software. Flux Auto team expects that the autopilot will be used mostly out of town, not too clogged highways and roads.

According to the Flux Auto, their development will cost about 3-4 thousand dollars. For the money the buyer will be able to autopilot with the function of anti-collision capable of confidently driving the car on the side of the road and focus on the markup. TechCrunch that work is already underway, but until the full testing on the roads of the autopilot is still far.
