Delphi, Mobileye team up for Level 4 and 5 autonomous cars
“This partnership will allow us to give our customers an increased level of automated capabilities faster and more cost effectively. The collective expertise of our two organizations will accelerate the creation of new approaches and capabilities that would likely not have been possible working alone. This is a win-win for both companies and our customers.”
“The relationship started with the implementation of what was one of the most advanced active safety systems of the time. Our long history together is key to the success of this ambitious endeavor. Our partnership with Delphi will accelerate the time to market and enable customers to adopt Level 4/5 automation without the need for huge capital investments, thereby creating a formidable advantage for them.”Mobileye which is headquartered in Jerusalem, uses vision algorithms and artificial vision to provide collision avoidance technology which is able to analyze potential dangerous scenarios, in real time, and alerts drivers with a quick evaluation based on its analysis. It also vouches to offer collision avoidance technology as its vehicle safety solutions automotive manufacturers including Ford, GM, Chrysler, BMW, Volvo, Hyundai and Honda. In fact, earlier in July, BMW Group, Intel and Mobileye came together to create self-driving vehicles as basis for new mobility services in urban environments. The synergy also promised production and deployment by 2021. It also formed an alliance with Volkswagen which called camera-based real-time image processing technology and digitalized maps as its focus to further autonomous driving initiatives. While Delphi debuted similar kind of service with the co-operation of Singapore Land Transport Authority (LTA) in rolling out a fleet of fully autonomous vehicles and developing a cloud-based mobility-on-demand software (AMoD) suite in early August. The Mobileye team also cited various undertakings on their twitter page:
