In this keynote-style talk, Manuela Locarno Ajayi, TomTom’s SVP Product Engineering explores the growing role of maps in vehicles of tomorrow. Manuela dives into the role of maps in modern vehicles, how our understanding of maps can limit our tech and what we need to do to build the map of the future.
Maps allow autonomous vehicles to see in ways we could only imagine, navigate reactively to conditions on the road and make decisions based on thousands of data points in a second. Even so, some believe ADAS/autonomy can be achieved with sensors alone, they’re wrong.
For any vehicle maker that’s building ADAS or self-driving tech, maps are essential.
