10. Latest in News: How Self-Driving Vehicles Benefit Cities Is Up to Us
Argo AI is a technology platform company that is working with leading automakers to deliver a fully integrated self-driving system that can be manufactured at scale for safe and reliable deployment in ride sharing and goods delivery services.
The company is uniting with the latest advancements in machine learning and computer vision, by partnering with academic communities and trusted automakers with over 100 years of hardware development, safety engineering and manufacturing expertise.
With the support of our first customers and partners, Ford, and soon, Volkswagen, our self-driving technology is poised to move people and goods worldwide. New technologies are improving the driving experience, human errors and choices – such as distracted driving, drunk driving, and speeding – continue to claim lives every day.
A Commitment to the Best in Engineering: in order to make this technology available at scale and are designing and building an automotive grade self-driving system from the ground up, suitable for commercial operation.
Extensive Testing: Through simulation and real-world testing on closed courses and public roads, we put our technology through the world’s most rigorous driving school every day.
Prioritizing Experience: No one likes a bumpy ride and is paying close attention to the experience we deliver by designing a system that is safe and confident and no abrupt stops – unless needed to ensure safety. We drive with the flow of traffic.
They contribute to a reduction in congestion, the services they enable need to encourage shared rides or be highly utilized, meaning they handle the same workload as multiple vehicles, so in turn there will be less vehicles on road.
In order to have a positive impact, self-driving vehicles need to be put into service where people need better choices. Likewise where they may have no choice and this is how self-driving technology will come to improve people’s access to transportation.
As long as we focus our work on addressing the pain points that people experience every day, self-driving vehicles can offer solutions we will all benefit from.
Self-driving will enable us to improve a lot of things that are broken in our transportation infrastructure, and I think we can all agree that road safety, traffic congestion and the convenience of getting around could be improved.
