Following a discussion on the causes of motion sickness in the context of self-driving cars, we present guidelines to steer the design and development of automated vehicle technologies. The aim is to limit or avoid the impact of motion sickness and ultimately promote the uptake of self-driving ...
Self-driving cars are safer. They don’t drunk drive, they don’t over speed, they don’t violate traffic signals – they are a dream come true. When it comes to maintaining vehicle peace on roads, reducing accidents; self-driving cars will be monumental. According to an estimate around ...

On the road to self-driving, autonomous cars, there are six levels of automation, according to the SAE, and each level has a specific set of requirements that a vehicle must meet before it can be considered to operate at that level. It's important to note that there's still a lot of...
“Self-driving cars are the natural extension of active safety and obviously something we should do.”~Elon Musk. “If you recognize that self-driving cars are going to prevent car accidents, AI will be responsible for reducing one of the leading causes of death in the world.”~Mark Zuckerb...
In many circumstances, a cost reduction is not always meaningful. The scenarios where a cost reduction will exponentially impact economic value requires two criteria to be true: (1)The cost reduction is a variable cost: If I run a factory and I have to buy new equipment, negotiating a piece...
Ultimately, self-driving cars can have immense power to reduce emissions and make the environment a better place if their drivers choose to make it so. The potential for a more fuel-efficient society is there; we just have to choose to take advantage of
ighly automated technologies, often called self-driving cars, promise a range of potential benefits.Greater Road Safety.Government dat a identifies driver behavior or errors as a factor in 94 percent of crashes, and self-driving vehicles can help reduce driver errors. Higher levels of autonomy hav...
The societal impact of self-driving cars looks even worse when considering second-order effects related to land use. Just as the ascent of car ownershipfueledsuburbanization in the 20th century, AVs could lead people to relocate to larger, less energy-efficient homes on the urban fringe, where ...
One of those is The European Investment Bank, which is supporting Sensible 4 with an 8 MEUR loan through its European Guarantee Fund, a facility designed to help European businesses deal with the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Development work is still required – and that requires...
