EV Pickups: The Week That Was

EV Pickups The Week That Was

From a legislative squabble, to a COVID-19 superspreader event, to claims of fraud and deception, the race to bring a pickup truck to market with an electrified powertrain went into overdrive last week. At the heart of the contest is the pursuit of ridiculous profit margins and impressive sales with Ford Motor Company’s F-Series

Arm Pushes Mobility, Industry

Again on the theme of rationalizing NVIDIA’s $40B acquisition of Arm, two more hot areas for growth are mobility and industrial automation markets. NVIDIA is already strong in intelligent mobility and Arm is is virtually everywhere in the modern car. Ditto for robotics in industry. In fact the two domains have significant overlap:… Read More

Uber Green

Uber Technologies won’t be reporting its latest earnings for another month, but when it does so in November the news is not expected to be good. In an effort to flip the script in advance of that report and distract attention from the ongoing COVID-19-induced decline in its core ride hailing business, Uber has launched Uber Green

Veriest Logo min

I wasn’t familiar with Veriest, I’m guessing you may not be either. They are a design and verification services company based in the Tel Aviv area (Israel). The CEO, Moshe Zalcberg, was earlier GM for Cadence in Israel. Echoes for me of the early days working with Ajoy Bose in Interra. Veriest have a big emphasis in verification, for… Read More

The Car Data Monetization Muddle

Four years ago, this month, McKinsey published a report – “Monetizing Car Data” – which continues to simultaneously haunt and mock the automotive industry. The report claimed that by 2030 the so-called “car data market” would be worth as much as $750B.

Siemens PAVE360 Stepping Up to Digital Twins
by Bernard Murphy on 09-29-2020 at 6:00 am

Siemens PAVE360

The idea of a digital twin is simple enough. You use a digital model of a car, aircraft, whatever to test design ideas and prove your design will be robust across a wide range of scenarios before you commit millions of dollars and lives to proving out the real thing. As Siemens have accomplished in their PAVE360 platform. There are a … Read More

Autonomous Vehicles: Avoiding Obstacles and Responsibility

Autonomous Vehicles Avoiding Obstacles and Responsibility

The headline screams off of the page and challenges all that we know about the fatal crash in Tempe, Ariz., that took the life of Elaine Herzberg two and a half years ago. “Backup Driver of Autonomous Uber SUV Charged with Negligent Homicide in Arizona.”

How could the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) associate itself… Read More

AI in Korea. Low-Key PR, Active Development
by Bernard Murphy on 09-15-2020 at 6:00 am

korea ai min

Based on press coverage and technical paper volume, you could be forgiven for thinking that Korea had decided to take a pass on AI mania, or maybe just to dabble a little here and there to stay abreast of trends. But you’d be wrong. Korea is very active in AI; they don’t feel a need to trumpet what they’re doing from the rooftops. If you … Read More
