Why unsafe autonomous vehicle systems are passing undetected during development. Dr. Luca Castignani, MSC Software In February, McAfee exposed the alarming gap between the road test and real-world performance of autonomous vehicle sensors. In a demonstration, McAfee was able to fool a Tesla car into accelerating to 85 mph in a 35 mph zone using […]
OEM guide to ADAS development
As automotive electronics becomes more complex, the quest is on for economical ways to cover the widest possible range of requirements. Eric Pinton | Renesas Electronics In recent years, few topics have stoked the automotive industry’s collective enthusiasm like autonomous vehicles. Pushed by widely publicized breakthroughs in connected vehicle development, deep learning software, and data-driven […]
Safety and cyber security for the connected car
Even the best coding practices are likely to result in vehicles infected with 10,000 software bugs. Simulated attacks can sniff out vulnerabilities before the car hits the road. Hwee Yng Yeo, Rick Kundi | Keysight Technologies The era of the connected car, and a growing concern over cybersecurity threats, is here. Safeguarding the connected car […]
The difference between measuring magnetic flux and magnetic fields
Simply stated, a magnetic field is analogous to electrical voltage, while magnetic flux is analogous to electrical current. A magnetic circuit is analogous to an electrical circuit with important differences. Electromotive force in an electrical circuit corresponds to magnetomotive force. Resistance and its reciprocal, conductance, in an electrical circuit corresponds to reluctance and its reciprocal, […]
The data-driven road to automated driving
Data replay and enrichment tools help analyze driving scenarios and verify simulations based on real-world events. Jace Allen, ADAS/AD Engineering and Business Development, dSPACE Inc. For ADAS and highly automated driving (HAD) applications, the road to homologation–the process of showing a product meets regulatory standards and specifications — is a long journey that begins and […]
More accurate positioning for autonomous vehicles
Next-generation inertial measurements will figure the where-abouts of AVs with centimeter-level precision. Reem Malik | ACEINNA Inc. Underlying any autonomous technology is the promise and necessity of superior safety. The technology in any autonomous vehicle helps it navigate the world around it; to do it safely and precisely is of utmost importance. The increasingly sophisticated […]
Cybersecurity testing in 5G automotive designs
Special instrumentation can help bullet-proof the communication equipment powering next-generation vehicles. Craig Hendricks, Anritsu Co. The roll-out of 5G is bringing a host of real-time Internet-of-Things (IoT) capabilities to automotive designs. Use cases such as enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB, high-data-rate use cases for 4G LTE and 5G NR services that allows a high data rate […]
Who is driving the growth of Virtual Reality?
Caltech Many leading research groups like the NASA Jet Propulsion Lab at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), which helped send the Curiosity rover to Mars, and other leading academia are supporting VR development. Many heavyweight tech companies such as Microsoft, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, and IBM are investing in VR. Caltech is using VR to improve […]
Using energy harvesting to power wireless IoT nodes and wearables
Three elements are necessary to effectively implement energy harvesting (EH) into wireless IoT nodes, wearables and similar low-power applications. First, it a detailed power profile needs to be developed that considers active and sleep modes to produce a realistic estimate of the average power consumption. The power profile is used to size both the harvester […]
How are we tapping into the potential of VR?
Virtual Reality (VR) technology was primarily used by video gamers to play 3-D games. Not anymore. The technology has changed so much over the years that now medical, sports, training, industrial, and many more applications use it. And it has significant business potential. So what is VR? Manufacturer STMicroelectronics has spent a great deal of […]
