1692 TomTom (TT) has announced the launch of new products and partners to help advance the future of autonomous driving. The TT AutoStream map delivery service enables vehicles to build a horizon for the road ahead by streaming the latest map data from the TT Cloud; while its new predictive driving concept, Motion Q, aims to provide comfort for passengers in self-driving transport.

The TT AutoStream has been developed with Baidu and Zenuity as initial partners, while MotionQ can be seen in the new robo-taxi concept, Rinspeed Snap. It was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show 2018.

Additionally, TT will fuse its HD Map with camera technologies and GPS data from Qualcomm’s Drive Data Platform to power precise and reliable localisation for connected car applications and autonomous vehicles. 

Harold Goddijn, CEO, TT, said: “Whether you talk about smart mobility, connected cars or autonomous driving, the minimum common denominator is navigation technologies. The future of mobility relies on a mix of high-definition maps, real-time maps, advanced navigation software, and live data from vehicle sensors. That’s why this year we’ve made key introductions to drive this future, with the launch of TomTom AutoStream, TomTom MotionQ, and important partnerships with the likes of Baidu and Zenuity.”
