The Technology Powering Aeva's (NYSE: AEVA) Vision For A Safer Autonomous Future And Why It Could Be Game-Changing

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga When it comes to autonomous driving, safety and accuracy are top of mind. For self-driving cars, trucks and trains to become ubiquitous on America’s roads, streets and railways, they must be extremely safe and reliable. The same goes for the robots that will someday deliver everything from food to medicine without human intervention. They have to be able to see everything around them and react in real time to avoid crashes. Technology advances and companies like Aeva Technologies (NYSE: AEVA) are making that a reality. Mountain View, California-based Aeva makes LiDAR sensors for use in vehicles, trucks and trains. The sensors act as eyes, providing 3D views of the surroundings. FMCW, The Technology Enabler For Highway Autonomy What takes Aeva’s sensors to the next level on the safety and reliability fronts is its Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) 4D LiDAR technology, which uses a low-power continuous laser beam to measure range and a fourth dimension of velocity at the same time. Aeva says FMCW unlocks new levels of safety and automation by instantaneously discriminating between moving and non-moving points and knowing the precise velocity of objects in motion. Instant velocity data gives real-time insight into how an object’s position is changing, giving the vehicle’s computer a more accurate picture to help plan its next move. But that’s not all. Aeva’s sensors also have advanced perception capabilities that deliver new features, which the company says are not possible with typical legacy LiDAR sensors, including Ultra resolution and vehicle localization. Ultra resolution provides a camera-like image of the world providing what Aeva Technologies says is up to 20 times the resolution of legacy time-of-flight LiDAR sensors. Image segmentation enables the detection of roadway markings, drivable regions, vegetation, road barriers and road hazards like tire fragments at up to twice the distance of conventional time-of-flight LiDAR sensors. Instant velocity data allows for confident detection and tracking of dynamic objects such as oncoming vehicles and other moving objects at distances up to 500 meters, reports Aeva. Meanwhile the technology’s Vehicle Localization features enable real-time vehicle motion estimation with six degrees of freedom, providing accurate vehicle positioning and navigation, which could be a substitute for other sensors, like IMU or GPS. That provides for safe autonomous navigation in common GPS-denied environments like tunnels and parking structures. Aeva says its FMCW technology provides autonomous vehicles with freedom from interference from sunlight and other LiDAR sensors, elimination of retroreflector blooming and ghosting from highly reflective objects like street signs and roadway markings, as well as a greater ability to see in weather conditions like dust, fog, rain and snow. Importantly, these benefits can allow automated vehicles to safely operate at highway speeds, a feat that has been sought after by major car manufacturers. Overcoming The Limitations With all that safety and technology packed into Aeva’s LiDAR sensors, Aeva is overcoming one of the biggest challenges of self-driving vehicles today: blindspots. Self-driving vehicle algorithms and conventional sensors can have difficulty when the weather is bad, lane markings are not clear or unexpected obstacles are in their way. That can lead to accidents and fatalities. Reacting in real-time is the goal and Aeva delivers that with its LiDAR sensors. The company’s FMCW LiDAR sensors can also enable self-driving cars and trucks to achieve highway speeds safely. It's something that has eluded the industry so far, with many self-driving vehicles achieving top speeds of 35 to 45 MPH. For the trucking industry to move to autonomous vehicles, it has to be able to sustain highway speeds safely. Achieving that can someday address the labor shortages the heavy truck industry faces. Finding drivers who want to spend most of their time on the road and away from family for three to four-week clips is harder to come by. Autonomous trucks that can run all day and all night can help fill that gap. It’s why Daimler Truck AG is using Aeva’s sensors in its Class 8 Freightliner Cascadia autonomous truck platform. Daimler Truck intends to integrate the LiDAR sensors directly into its production process, making it easy for customers to buy autonomous-ready trucks directly from its manufacturing plants. Daimler Truck said it chose Aeva’s LiDAR sensors because of its ability to provide enhanced safety and control. “Daimler Truck is committed to leading the industry’s advancement toward autonomous trucks. Selecting the right LiDAR technology is a crucial strategic decision to safely deploy autonomous trucks on the road,” said Joanna Buttler, Head of Global Autonomous Technology Group at Daimler Truck. “We are convinced that Aeva with its cutting-edge and reliable technology is the right production partner for LiDAR sensors and has the manufacturing capabilities to scale along with us.” The world is moving toward autonomous vehicles but for them to become ubiquitous safety can’t be a question. That’s where companies like Aeva Technologies come in. Its advanced next-generation LiDAR sensors can react in real-time, potentially taking autonomous driving to the next level.

He is the Managing Director of Demography at Hedgeye Risk Management and his human resources and strategic planning consulting firm, LifeCourse Associates, has served hundreds of corporate, government and nonprofit clients. The author of several books on “generational theory”, which argues that history repeats itself in 80 to 100-year cycles, Howe will share his insights on how these turning points impact America's ability to invest in its future. In his latest book, “The Fourth Turning Is Here,” Howe shows that America is currently in the last stage of one of these long cycles. He describes past turnings as “traumatic and transformative” and notes that they “dramatically reshape attitudes, behaviors, and the future of society.” Howe will lead a fireside chat at the Crossroads Summit, sponsored by TradeStation Group, that will delve into what the current stage of these cyclical patterns implies for America’s present and future. Howe Among Many Experts To Speak At The Crossroads Summit More than a dozen speakers, all experts in their respective fields, will address attendees at the Crossroads Summit. Each will focus on how turmoil like what Howe identifies will inspire the innovative solutions that could drive future investment opportunities. The conference is intended to help investors learn how to adjust their investing strategies to focus on future themes such as the end of near-zero interest rates, immigration policy, changes in the domestic workforce and new investable products. Fireside chats and panel discussions are intended to offer attendees investable insights by uncovering the hidden trends and critical developments that are driving world markets and economies. TradeStation Group is the title sponsor of the Crossroads Summit. Ticket packages are available at the Crossroads Summit website. TradeStation Group’s Sponsorship In The Crossroads Summit The Crossroads Summit was created to help business leaders and investors cut through the current clutter of information. Today's leaders are often inundated with so much data that making future projections is more difficult than just a few years ago. Today’s world is facing unprecedented challenges and disruption with advancements in artificial intelligence, political and economic uncertainty, an increase in armed conflict and rapid changes in technologies like cryptocurrency and fintech innovations. The Crossroads Summit is intended to be a catalyst for uncovering investment opportunities. As such, it was a natural fit that a global financial services company like TradeStation Group should present the conference. TradeStation Group aims to offer investors comprehensive market access and high-quality trade execution. The platform provides trading capabilities in stocks, options, mutual funds, and ETFs. TradeStation Group’s sponsorship of the Summit appropriately dovetails its capabilities with the needs of attendees. See how the fourth turning might shape future investments by attending the 2024 Crossroads Summit. Featured photo by Holgi on Pixabay.

News Release

Proven Leadership Team With A History Of Unlocking Shareholder Value Could Drive Railtown AI Higher

Railtown AI

Back in July, CrowdStrike released a configuration update for their Falcon sensor, which inadvertently caused a system crash on Windows systems across the world. This issue was triggered by a logic error in the update that affected systems running Falcon Sensor for Windows, which resulted in downloading the faulty configuration during a specific timeframe. The fallout was immediate and widespread, impacting banks, airlines, and various other critical sectors globally. Systems crashed, operations halted, and organizations were left scrambling to restore functionality.

Railtown AI has achieved several milestones, reaffirming that its business model has been validated by the market. These include the company’s recently announced debt-free status and strengthening of its capital base through private placements. Clearly, those achievements, combined with strategic partnerships with leading institutions like the Mila Quebec AI Institute and Amii Alberta Machine Learning Institute, set the stage for future growth. Going forward, we believe that Railtown AI is poised to capitalize on its strong leadership team to unlock shareholder value as the company positions itself to rapidly scale user acquisition and commercialize new features on the platform.
