Communications is the message at the 6765 Autotalks booth. In particular the emergence of DSRC-based Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications to increase an autonomous vehicle’s level of certainty of its surroundings.

Introduced against a backdrop of rapid change, the company’s latest Vehicle to Everything (V2X) communication chipset is designed to meet the requirements for autonomous driving and vehicles.

Using accurate V2X-based positioning, the system know when users are at challenging urban canyons and it is already prepared for brake actuation with a functional safety certification. It maintains cloud connectivity with an external Wi-Fi to complement cellular connectivity and its embedded security is said to build trust.

In addition, V2X allows the vehicle to better understand the intention of surrounding vehicles and to receive guidance from infrastructure.

The study was carried out in January-February 2017 and is based on an online survey of more than 8,500 consumers who purchased/leased a new vehicle in the past five years. “In most cases, as technology concepts get closer to becoming reality, cons

For emergency teams and those in need of their help, the consequences are dire. The solution could come from application of connected veh

The Craton communication processor and the Pluton transceiver developed by Autotalks utilise powerful sensors capable of transmitting electronic signals between cars within a defined radius, for example 100 metres. Any vehicles fitted with the V2V technology will be able to analyse the relative speed and distances between any other vehicles within its predetermin
