Automotive at the Edge: Machine Learning to Help Self-Driving Vehicles See Better

Automotive at the Edge: Machine Learning to Help Self-Driving Vehicles See Better

In the real-world, road conditions are rarely ideal and usually messy. For drivers, quick decisions are just a way of life on the road. If the goal is to have autonomous vehicles think like human drivers, then the vehicles need to see and react to everything in their path. As Dave Tokic, VP Marketing & Strategic Partnerships at Algolux, says, we need autonomous cars to have autonomous vision.
