#ICYMI Our CEO and Co-Founder, Anthony Levandowski, recently caught up with Pete Bigelow at Automotive News to discuss the 20th anniversary of the #DARPAGrandChallenge. Anthony submitted one of the competition's most creative and unique entries, a self-driving motorbike dubbed Ghostrider, which now resides in the Smithsonian Institution. Ghostrider was only the first, small step in Anthony's career as one of the leading pioneers of #autonomous technologies, leading to the founding of Pronto.

Daily, we're inspired by the further development of #AutonomousMobility solutions at Switzerland Innovation Park Zurich as our community member embotech utilizes our tarmac as a testing site. A spin-off of ETH Zürich, Embotech was founded by Dr. Alexander Domahidi in 2013. It recently celebrated its 10th anniversary and now employs more than 70 engineers, software engineers and visionaries. In 2021, they won the Swiss Technology Award. Learn more in the post below. #autonomousvehicles #autonomousdriving #energyoptimization #energymanagement #roboticautomation #roboticsolutions #motionplanning
Marking a big step in our company history: Along with embotech's 10th anniversary, we organized the very first in a series of upcoming Tech Showcase events: Over the last two days, we welcomed the “who is who” of the European Logistics industry at our test site in Switzerland Innovation Park Zurich. 30 companies plus our partners Terberg Spezialfahrzeuge GmbH and Arnold NextG joined us for a first-hand experience of autonomous driving in a port environment. Selected emulated scenes included: - Port trailer parking - Perpendicular intersection - Multilane road with unexpected obstacle - Infrastructure sensing nodes - BEV charging zone - Fleet management A big THANK YOU TO OUR GUESTS for your invaluable feedback and the insightful discussions that followed. Your engagement is what keeps our company going forward, it's a testament to our progress! Knowing that we are on the right track and that our technology is making a positive impact on your business has been the most rewarding outcome of these two days for us. #TechShowcase #AutonomousDriving

At Mika we are passionate about creating new products that drive value and sustainability. For the new era of transportation the stance is that the goods is the value. Taking that stance results in a different path for the solution. In fact such a solution, without the driver centric approach, is 50 percent less cost, 50 percent less CO2 for production (less complexity) and of course electric in operation. Also much lighter. No other industries have succeeded a stepwise approach in tech layout in a new era. Why should transportation be different? What do you think about vehicle layout for the new autonomous use cases?

Huge news, and a major milestone for Oxa! Following years of innovation and pilot projects, we made our first commercial deployment of passenger-carrying shuttles operated by a third party. Oxa Driver is now deployed in passenger shuttles operated by Beep, Inc. at Florida State College at Jacksonville. Once we were asked to operate there, it's worth noting how quickly we were able to deploy. Thanks to our mapping and virtual route testing solutions, the shuttle was able to operate autonomously on its first lap of the campus route. This is Day 1 for commercial autonomy at Oxa. Now you're going to see us scaling up repeatably and efficiently. We’re advancing the state of the art, and demonstrating the transformative power of autonomous vehicles to enhance mobility and safety, and to enable applications that simply wouldn’t otherwise be feasible. This first launch is only the beginning. #FutureMobility #Tech #Innovation #AutonomousVehicles #Autonomy

Glimpse into the future of transportation. While flying cars have been a staple of science fiction for decades, advancements in technology are bringing this vision closer to reality. Prototypes and early models are being developed by companies worldwide, with significant strides in electric propulsion, autonomous systems, and lightweight materials. However, widespread adoption and implementation depend on overcoming regulatory, infrastructural, and safety challenges. While it's possible that flying cars could become part of our transportation system, it may take a few more decades before they become commonplace. #flyingcar #flying #cars #transportation #safety #implementations #regulatory #electric #developed #companies #worldwide, #prototypes

"Human-assisted autonomy is the only path to scalable and reliable logistics automation today," says Hendrik Kramer, CEO and co-founder of FERNRIDE. In the autonomous vehicle (AV) sector, we often see a moonshot approach: it's an all or nothing mentality, full autonomy or none at all. However, at FERNRIDE, we have a clear vision for a future that is more productive, safer, and sustainable, and we adopt a pragmatic approach to reach it. Learn more about our human-assisted autonomy approach and how FERNRIDE provides value and the benefits of automation today.

As we move towards our #autonomous future, it’s critical we precisely define the technology we’re enabling. “Smart” isn’t specific enough. 💡 PassiveLogic has laid out the path to #autonomousbuildings. Based on the SAE International Levels of Driving Automation, PassiveLogic’s taxonomy defines not only the requirements for autonomous buildings, but also how we get to #GIEBs! 🏢🌱⚡️ PassiveLogic CEO Troy Harvey recently spoke with Brian Collins at AutomatedBuildings to discuss how we define the built world’s technology transformation from automated buildings to autonomous buildings.

Autonomous mobility is starting to see deviating paths, each will require different questions to find their purpose. The constant remains though that the right questions and answers come with getting all stakeholders to the table.
Vice President, Head of Policy & Regulatory for Beep, Inc. Electric, Shared Autonomous Mobility for All
The autonomous transportation conversation has matured to a point where we need to start making some key distinctions in use case scenarios, and move past blanket statements. Having a general opinion on “autonomous transportation” is akin to having a general opinion on shirts. Shirts, for the most part, are a very useful invention. But what are you using them for? They may not be ideal if you’re going swimming. Is your shirt the right size? For your next meeting, do you need a tee or a more formal option? For autonomous transportation, those questions might look like: what does the operational domain look like? At what speed can the vehicle move? What problem is the technology solving for? What is the capacity? There is no one size fits all solution for shirts, and there is no one size fits all solution for autonomous transportation. Asking the right questions and prioritizing meaningful dialogues with the communities you hope to serve — and the key stakeholders within those communities — will always lead to better outcomes.
