Intel begins to create a fleet of 100 self-driving cars
Source:
Not so long ago that one of the giants of the IT industry, Intel has acquired the Israeli company Mobileye, which specializes in the manufacturing of chips for optical positioning systems of unmanned vehicles. Intel decided a long time not to think about what to do with "buying", and declared quite ambitious plans for the development of the market of consumer self-driving cars within the next few years.
According to representatives of the company already by the end of 2017 Park fully Autonomous cars will have at least hundreds of copies. This quick release will be possible because the system has already been developed by experts Mobileye, fully adapted for use in vehicles 237 different brands. Moreover, the total number of Mobileye chips mounted on vehicles today, more than 3.3 million pieces.
But the "take a number" Intel does not intend, and at the moment, Intel and Mobileye are working on a new cloud technology that, by design, needs to become a single system, allowing the cars to robots to communicate with each other, to store data in the vastness of the cloud service and access them at any time. In addition, the development environment will be used the latest achievements in the field of computer positioning, machine learning, mapping, transfer, storage and processing of data. Creating an ecosystem from scratch, according to representatives of Intel, due to the fact that the number of the transmitted vehicle information is steadily increasing and by 2020 will reach more than 4 gigabytes of data. And with such volumes of information, existing systems of self-driving cars can handle not just be able to.
If to speak about its own fleet of self-driving cars, it will be scattered around the world: parts of it will be in the United States, Europe and Israel. The composition of the fleet will consist, as already mentioned, at least 100 copies with a level of autonomy SAE Level 4. At this level of automation, human intervention is required only in emergency situations or in threatening weather conditions like heavy rain or a sudden outbreak of snowfall.
"the Distribution of Park of cars-robots in different parts of the world and the geographical diversity is very important to us. In different regions the drivers have different driving styles, regions differ in terms of road and weather conditions, and even some road signs. Our goal is to create a system that will work irrespective of all these factors, and in every corner of the world."
