The automotive landscape is rapidly changing, and autonomous vehicles (AVs) are at the forefront of this revolution. But what exactly are you buying when you see “self-driving” features advertised? It’s crucial to understand that not all AVs are created equal. The industry uses a system of levels, established by SAE International, to classify vehicle autonomy. Most vehicles on the road today are…

Level 4 autonomy, or “high driving automation,” is a huge step forward because the vehicle can handle all driving tasks within a specific set of conditions, also known as its Operational Design Domain (ODD). The biggest challenges of Level 4 autonomy are not just technological but also regulatory, infrastructural, and public perception-related. Unlike Level 3, the driver is not expected to take…

The road to full autonomy has been a long and winding one, but the industry is hitting its stride. While the early hype has been replaced by a more practical and incremental approach, the latest news shows that autonomous vehicles (AVs) are moving beyond the test track and into our daily lives. The focus is no longer on a distant, futuristic vision but on real-world commercialization and the…

Autonomous highway trucking has moved from science fiction into pilots on U.S. highways. Companies such as Waymo Via, Aurora and Daimler/Torc are running Level‑4 (L4) trucks on dedicated hub‑to‑hub routes in Texas and Arizona dispatchrepublic.com. Analysts project that roughly 13 % of U.S. heavy‑duty trucks could operate autonomously by 2035, with adoption in China and Europe lagging slightly…

Local authorities are enhancing road safety management with artificial intelligence – and it’s working.

Local authorities are enhancing road safety management with artificial intelligence – and it’s working. Local authorities in Devon, UK have approved spending £1 million on AI traffic cameras to improve road safety. The camera systems will track driving speed. However, they have more innovative capabilities such as “spying” inside the car to detect whether drivers are wearing seat-belts or are…

By Chris BressiPublished by National Aerospace & Aviation Experts in Autonomous Technology (NAAEA) Asteroids and meteors, once considered celestial debris, are now seen as potential goldmines for valuable resources. These space objects contain a wealth of minerals, including platinum, nickel, and gold, along with rare earth elements that are essential for modern technology. With Earth’s natural…

The rise of technology has drastically reshaped many industries, and transportation is no exception. As we advance further into the digital age, the integration of technology in transportation systems is enhancing efficiency, safety, and convenience. From autonomous vehicles to smart traffic management, technological innovations are revolutionizing how we move from one place to another. This…
