HD Live Map - Services of data for future cars
Development of automotive industry goes not only in respect of technologies, but also in approaches to driving. It becomes safer and controlled, and trips — more and more effective due to use of better planning tools. The futuristic ideas about completely autonomous vehicles become closer to reality. However whether people are ready to refuse control of own car?
Autonomous driving moves quicker and quicker to that 100% of maneuvers were executed by the car independently. For today it is possible to select 4 levels of automation. Levels from the 1st on the 3rd represent gradual steps on transfer by the driver of control over the car. Automation of the 4th level will allow to transfer autonomous driving to the next stage.
It is a huge step, and it is extremely important to perform it so that to ensure traffic safety, positioning accuracy and trust of passengers. In this area at us 4 main competitors who try to achieve full automation in the different ways — from use of intra automobile sensors to cameras using which maneuvers are made. HERE wants to go further away.
Specific Features
HERE offers resources for achievement of the maximum level of control automation: HD Live Map, the connected cars, cloud computing and the analysis of historical data on traffic. Creation of the card which would be available to reading not only by people, but also robots is the cornerstone of this system. HERE is engaged in it now. The industry is faced by a task to select such card which would provide the maximum accuracy, would be the most complete and relevant. According to HERE, OEM partnership have key value, and development of the numerous software which will be connected with server solution will allow sellers of a system to simplify and unify integration of the equipment.
The proposed HERE solutions are potentially capable to change rules of the game. The HD Live Map technology using "tiled" approach positions the car on the road with an accuracy of 10 cm, and the sensor which at the moment is in development allows cars to see that "occurs round the corner", a join path of machines in a uniform cloud. HERE "humanizes" driving at the expense of the analysis of behavior of drivers using long-term data.
Advantages
- HERE HD Live Map is the sensor which is capable to change idea of clients of autonomous driving.
- High accuracy.
- Providing information on cross and longitudinal arrangement of cars to within arrangement in a band.
- Increase in security.
- Allows to use pro-active strategic planning of the movement of the car.
- Increase in trust.
- Raises trust degree to the car, reducing feeling that the automatic machine operates the vehicle.
