Artificial intelligence at the heart of the automotive future That is why the automotive industry has begun to leverage AI to make the driving experience easier and safer.
Indeed, a team of scientists from the Department of Computer Science at Brown University in Providence, U.S., is teaching algorithms how (not) to drive using footage of drivers breaking traffic laws or engaging in careless behavior, while also taking into account comments from any passengers.
After all, in the future, as vehicles travel along stretches of road semi-autonomously, the driver-passenger monitoring system will become indispensable to make sure that the driver can safely take the wheel again at any time and avoid potential dangerous situations.
In addition to being harnessed for semi-autonomous driving, AI will also be used to develop cameras that can recognize partially hidden pedestrians and make the automatic emergency braking system more reliable.
In addition, to increase driving safety, new vehicle cockpit monitoring systems will be tested that can detect whether the driver is tired or distracted by harnessing artificial intelligence to analyze eyelid movements, gaze direction and head position.
The future of automotive is now written, AI is set to assist and replace the human driver.
