Mobileye and Nissan partner on autonomous driving

Mobileye and Nissan are to collaborate on a project that aims to integrate Mobileye's new Road Experience Management (REM) technology into Nissan's fleets. Mobileye REM technology will provide real-time data for precise localisation and high-definition lane data that form an important layer of information to support fully autonomous driving.

4279 Mobileye and 838 Nissan are to collaborate on a project that aims to integrate Mobileye's new Road Experience Management (REM) technology into Nissan's fleets.

Mobileye REM technology will provide real-time data for precise localisation and high-definition lane data that form an important layer of information to support fully autonomous driving.  The technology is based on software running on Mobileye's EyeQ processing platforms that extracts landmarks and roadway information at extremely low bandwidths, approximately 10kb per kilometre of driving.

    Self-driving cars ‘a US$87 billion opportunity in 2030’
    The latest research from Lux Research indicates that automakers and technology developers are closer than ever to bringing self-driving cars to market, with basic Level 2 autonomous behaviour already coming to market, in the form of relatively modest self-driving features like adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and collision avoidance braking. With these initial steps, automakers are already on the road to some level of autonomy, but costs remain high in many cases. It is the higher levels
