When it comes to next-generation ADAS innovations and higher levels of vehicle automation, an almost infinite number of images and point-cloud frames must be annotated in a way that is fast, affordable, and at scale. Time, cost, and quality factor into this process and are among the primary challenges when realizing ADAS and automated driving functions that require validation via high volumes of annotated data.
Juergen Daunis, CEO of understand.ai, provides a more in-depth look at these challenges, how AI and machine learning play a role, and the importance of a CI/CD toolchain.

Wednesday Feb 28, 2024
Wednesday Feb 28, 2024
Jayada Pandit loved being on the manufacturing floor at her father's company in India. As a young girl, well before university, her passion for engineering was ignited by her father's side as she would rush to the factory after school. In adulthood, she later worked on patents with her father, still remembering the toy airplane he gifted her years ago.
Today, Jayada is the Head of Marketing, Branding, and Thought Leadership Initiatives at KPIT Americas and oversees KPIT's Women in Mobility program. In this special episode of AutoVision News Radio, Jayada shares her personal and professional journey, how women can overcome imposter syndrome, and why she seeks to "die empty" in honor of the name given to her by her father.

Connected Car Study Reveals Features Buyers Will Trade Personal Data For
Tuesday Feb 13, 2024
Tuesday Feb 13, 2024
While consumers may not understand all the jargon, quirks, and idiosyncrasies of the automotive industry, their interests are piqued once they have a basic definition of a connected car and its potential benefits. However, that interest only extends so far, as consumers view certain connected car features and capabilities as more valuable than others.
This realization is among the key findings in a body of research from Salesforce in partnership with YouGov, released in January 2024, that surveyed nearly 2,200 U.S. drivers aged 18 and over.
In this solo episode, AutoVision News Radio host Carl Anthony summarizes the findings of this Salesforce study on connected cars and shares key insights from the survey on which features consumers will either pay more money or trade their personal data for.

On Automotive Cloud 9 ft. Achyut Jajoo of Salesforce

Tuesday Feb 06, 2024
Connected cars are forecasted to make up 95 percent of all vehicles on the road by 2030, with each one generating an estimated 25 gigabytes of data per hour – as much data as it would take someone to stream nearly 600 hours of music. How such data may be leveraged for new revenue channels through personalized, value-added features is a prime area of focus for the automotive industry.
Achyut Jajoo, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Manufacturing and Automotive at Salesforce, joins Carl to discuss the relationship between connected cars and the Automotive Cloud, how the industry can enhance its communication with customers, and the promise that software-defined vehicles represent.
Carl and Achyut also travel back to 1999 to the founding of Salesforce in San Francisco and reminisce about fond memories of learning to drive when they were teenagers.

Thursday Jan 18, 2024
Like every other aspect of automotive, the retail arm of the industry is undergoing immense change. Yet one constant remains for dealerships, no matter where they are located or which logos are on the building: it's the people business first, the car business second.
Jennifer Lennox is the Vice President of People, Culture, and Learning at AutoCanada, a North American dealer group operating over 80 franchised locations comprised of nearly 30 brands. In this episode of AutoVision News Radio, Jennifer expands on why diversity, equity, and inclusion are among AutoCanada's core values and why the organization works diligently to invest in its relationships with employees and customers.
Carl also recalls his time in automotive retail and his Women in Literature class in college, as Jennifer shares a powerful message about why women professionals should embrace who they are.

Safety Through Synchronization ft. Paul McGlone of Seeing Machines

Thursday Jan 11, 2024
Consumer trust is one of the most significant pieces of the ADAS puzzle. Although the value of consumer trust with regard to ADAS is well acknowledged, it's no less important, especially as technologies like DMS enter the picture.
What is the link between consumer trust and the fully optimized synchronization of ADAS and DMS? When the external and internal sensors are on the same page, communicating in tandem with the intent to keep vehicle occupants safe, what would that do for consumer trust?
Seeing Machines has been tackling these and other complex questions for over two decades, driven by an internal purpose of getting everyone home safe. CEO Paul McGlone joins Carl to discuss the relationship between ADAS and DMS, why consumer trust is essential, and how the company continues to rally around its founding principles of safety.

Daily traffic volumes have rebounded from pandemic lows in 2020, but perhaps not surprisingly, traffic and pedestrian fatalities have risen in tandem. Maybe also not surprisingly, unsafe driving behaviors like speeding, texting, and operating under the influence continue to impact these statistics. Among the questions are why people engage in risky behaviors behind the wheel and what countermeasures can be implemented to prevent such behavior.
These questions are at the core of the latest Traffic Safety Culture Index (TSCI) survey from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, released in December 2023. The latest TSCI survey identified six driver profiles and examined the social approval and/or disapproval of certain unsafe driving habits.
Dr. Rebecca Steinbach, Senior Researcher for the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, joins Carl to provide additional insight into the findings of the latest TSCI survey. Dr. Steinbach explains the six driver profiles, how perceptions towards speeding have changed, and the little things we can do to become safer drivers.

As the world moves towards an electric vehicle revolution, the need for certified technicians to maintain the charging infrastructure is greater than ever. For EVs to reach their full potential, consumers must have complete faith and confidence in the charging infrastructure. Like how consumers think nothing of a gas pump when they pull up, building that same level of trust with charging stations is imperative.
SkillFusion co-founder and Chief Operating Officer Alisyn Malek joins Carl for an in-depth discussion on this topic, sharing insight into how SkillFusion is developing a nationwide talent pipeline that can operate and maintain electric vehicle chargers for peak performance and availability. Alisyn also recalls her early years at General Motors, her time with May Mobility, and why "pushing the needle forward" is one of her guiding philosophies.
