Volvo has brought such technology to transmit the safety data automatically, and this is the latest system, which will warn you to go to the dangerous road in case of emergency. This idea is developed by the Swedish car maker Volvo. This idea works in such a way that, you are driving your car, and y driving, you reach that road, which is encountered with the black ice, and with this, your car deviates dangerously. The auto built sensors will detect the location, and these locations will be sent to the cloud, and this will further prevent the other vehicles having the same and latest technology. The car will get the warning before going to that road.
The data from the car’s sensors are transmitted to the private clouds, which are set up by the Volvo’s technology, and the vehicles will then be protected from any sort of damage. As part of this technology, we are in a way of enablement to use the innovative ways to use the cloud to provide the additional benefits like road friction information, Klas Bednrick, who is group CIO at Volvo; he sees this approach as a creative differentiator in an increasingly competitive automotive market.
There are lots of examples, we have seen the connected cars in the numerous guises for the years with systems like GM’s onstar providing real time in-car assistance or remote starting, this approach is unique as this information gets transmitted to a private cloud, Bendrik explained.
Bendrik says that new tool is not unlike Waze, the crowd sourced traffic data service, but in this case, sensors communicate to the cloud automatically instead of individuals using their smartphones, in this way, the service will be opt-in and paid for on a subscription basis, which solely depends on the requirements could include internet connectivity. Volvo is building relationships all around the world, which includes AT&T in the U.S.
In the beginning, the Volvo will put the technology in the certain models of Volvo in Sweden and Norway, where the car makers have the very important share in the market of automotive industry. Bendrick expects, this program could be expanded, and can envision a time, when it could communicate to all latest equipped car models, and this will enable the car models to be used as best parts of the services.
During the transmission of the data, there will not any sort of private information transferred from mobile to the cloud. With the passage of time, there will be more clarity and advancement in this technology, and this will make the process more convenient and easy. We are leading this development, but the industry is still young, and with the time, car makers will have the options of involving this technology as a useful technology.
No doubt, this technology will yield the good results for the safety of the vehicles for the uncertain conditions, and this will protect the precious human lives.
