the world depends on mobility in
fast-growing cities people spend more
and more time in their cars zoom in a
not so distant future system is extant
self-driving cars will ease Mis
community if the self-driving car will
be coming to the roads is no longer a
question the question merely is when
mercedes-benz has been the leading car
company when it comes to autonomous
driving in 2013 the company completed
the first ever long-distance autonomous
drive on country roads and through inner
city traffic in Germany because traffic
rules roads and conditions are different
in different countries the self-driving
s-class is now tested on the roads of
California in the US for example streets
are wider traffic lights are differently
positioned you have right turn on red
and four-way stops all things that are
different or even unknown in Germany
with so many various conditions on the
road what is the technology that enables
the car to adjust and manage such vastly
different situations equipped with eight
radar systems and three cameras the s500
intelligent drive Garner's endless
information from the environment and
processes this information in a split
second in combination with maps and GPS
information the research car knows it's
way around learning its environment is
one thing a whole other is learning to
make informed decisions take a four-way
stop intersection for example the rule
appears to be simple the first to stop
is the first to go this is something the
autonomous driving mercedes-benz has to
learn as well and in case of any doubt
to act defensively
equipped with the right heart and
software the research vehicle is able to
more and more understand its environment
and choose the correct maneuver for the
situation knowing its way around is one
thing learning new traffic conditions
the other combining both will turn
autonomous driving into reality step by
step
you
augmented reality has come to your car
now all you need to do is pull out your
smartphone or tablet
by opening the Hyundai virtual guide and
pointing your device under the hood you
can learn how to add coolant change your
oil or even change your air filter
inside it shows you what those warning
lights are for or what those warning
signs really mean it's loaded with lots
of great how-to information and you
don't have to be in the car to use it it
works anywhere while Hyundai is not
quite ready to ditch the owner's manual
this is a glimpse of things to come
we're launching a Hyundai virtual guide
first on the 2015 Sonata and you can
pick it up now at your app store
card to excommunication expands the
horizons of previous onboard sensor
systems by exchanging information with
other vehicles and is therefore able to
warn against impending dangers at an
earlier stage than before with the help
of this technology based on the cellular
communications network information about
potential dangers ahead can be exchanged
between vehicles allowing a look around
the corner or behind obstacles in the
process the vehicle acts as both
transmitter and receiver various
critical situations are automatically
detected by the vehicle and directly
reported to the mercedes-benz cloud the
driver can also send a warning manually
the car 2x warning messages are shown
directly on the navigation map certain
advanced warnings are also communicated
to the driver by voice output which is
particularly useful where the course of
the road is not clear traffic event
ahead the automatically detected hazards
include breakdowns accidents and reports
of ice fog or heavy rain the cloud can
also be used to show information from
other data providers for example mobile
