Automotive – Everything just software? – Germany Funk

“The car has basically two direct connections to the Internet of Things. Is the one that the car is a sensor. That is, the car provides data that can then be used for various applications, in the simplest case for a better, a more reliable traffic forecasts or indeed for other things, which then ultimately my house know that my car’m on my way home and I probably also on the way home and then according to me may establish or my arrival. that is, the car as a sensor, and on the other side, we turn to the arrow, and the car is very intense, the data from the cloud, can be used from the Internet of things, about its own performance improve accordingly. “

Klaus compass directs the department of vehicle safety at the BMW AG. As the car exchanges data with a cloud and other stakeholders, which is currently one of the major themes in research and development. Since just vehicles is dependent on possible delay-free and anytime available data that developers rely on a gimmick. You create a virtual twin of the car in the cloud. The gets its data from the real vehicle when the transmission conditions are good – ideally continuously. And using the data to calculate algorithms in the cloud based on the virtual model, the twin, all the desired parameters. The then also, if the transfer conditions are right, sent back to the real car. This is only one of the sites in terms of networked and automated vehicles. Another construction is the data acquisition, explains Matthias Schulze, who specializes in the environment recognition at Daimler AG.

“A very great challenge lies in the sensors. Current sensors already detect the ambient quite outstanding. It is always surprised at how well see cameras even under relatively poor visibility, but still that’s not enough to really reliable autonomous driving in all conditions. “

benefit from the data of other cars

see more figuratively to the car using a technology called the “networked horizon” the developers. Here are all available data from vehicles in the area, infrastructure, weather monitoring, topography, traffic management and many more combined so that the vehicle, already can prepare for what comes right. make brake Ready because a jam waiting around the next bend? In the Sail mode switch, because it’s the same downhill? Such questions should help answer the networked horizon. must answer questions even politics and justice. They are responsible for the regulatory framework in which the vehicles. And that is still very tight in Europe and Germany. Daimler manager Matthias Schulze gives an example. For example

“There is a steering regulation which says that only at speeds below 10 km / h are automatically steered. This Regulation shall be in force and this Regulation . it just in not for the moment to drive autonomously at higher speeds “

in order to overcome the existing obstacles, BMW engineer Klaus Kompass sees only one way. cooperation and standards

“we just provide the automated driving or with the new features the very great need for new standards. It makes no sense and does not add value, if every vehicle manufacturer or any supplier to be anything new invents, but we are many Make go where we definitely need a cooperation, a partnership, a überwettbewerbliche cooperation. “
