The market is increasingly demanding automation and AI, leading to a need for continued investment in these technologies. As these technologies become more prevalent, it is crucial to focus on safety and apply them appropriately. However, the market is also shifting towards drivers wanting assistance but not giving up control. This shift in focus can be a differentiator, as the degree to which a company can provide this assistance is a premium option, and in some cases, the price of entry is higher. There is a potential for 5G cellular networks to reduce infrastructure and enable specific use cases.
In this episode Stephan sits down with Reuben Sarkar, President and CEO for the American Center for Mobility (ACM). They discuss examples of 5G multi-access edge computing to avoid pedestrian accidents. Among other topics covered are automated and connected vehicle development, key differentiators in technology competition, the need in consumer technology education and future needs of the consumer.
