Google And Ford To Partner On The Production Of Auto Drive Automobile by hardewalleh(m): 11:44pm On Jan 12, 2016 |
http://techsavvyhome..com/2016/01/google-and-ford-to-partner-on.html I think this year will be an era of great technological achievement as Google and Ford breaks the year's technological environment with this great news. The technology giants are collaborating to produce self driving autos. Although there have been self driving autos before, One can never tell what the car will feature. The two monster organizations in two diverse corners will declare that they are collaborating to produce steered autos amid one month from now's Consumer Electronics Show, Yahoo Autos reports . Although this has not been confirmed, we are convinced it may be so by Ford's reaction as Ford's Executive chairman, Bill Ford Jr. stressed that "the car-maker would need to combine with enormous tech organizations keeping in mind the end goal to survive the coming arrangement of upsets confronting the transportation business" which implies Google may have been their choice as obvious on the test auto. You can recall that Google partnered with various organizations to deliver Nexus items. They recently partnered with Infinix versatile to produce the first generation of Android-one gadget in Africa which yielded the infinix Hot 2. If this collaboration turns out to be successful, Google may turn into the big name behind self driving autos with their logo on the products. Google is the largest web search engine. They also own YouTube, Google map, Google+, Adsense, Adword etc. What is your thought on this? Is it a good move or are they crossing their boundary of web administration? http://techsavvyhome..com/2016/01/google-and-ford-to-partner-on.html

These auto-drive vehicles require highly sophisticated input-input response-output integrated systems. You typical toy car controlled with a remote is just the most basic input-input response-output system. And its ONLY input is a simple EM wave. These vehicles however have to factor in several thousands of inputs to make a decision. You can break the inputs into two big categories. The geographical inputs that are obtained from satellites and 'cameras' that capture events on the road; and the mechanical/electrical inputs that tells the car what is really going on inside its system. In principle, if you can design a toy car you can design an auto-drive vehicle. All you are doing is adding thousands of layers to your input-input response-output system. Fascinating stuff, if you ask me. |

FisifunKododada: Yeah. Your point is perfect, if you can develop a toy car, then self driving autos are no big deal |
