Conigital

Optimisation of vehicle fleets We have developed the ConOP product that enables a wider, systems of systems approach where we optimise transport fleets at campus locations using a wide range of input parameters. We have taken this approach as we understand that high traffic destinations have a wide range of priorities that need consideration, whether it be energy use, costs, labour or customer satisfaction. For each client site we can vary preferences according to customer needs using a heuristic, multiobjective optimisation algorithm. For instance, at a budget airport we may prioritise cost and labour, whereas at a large Hub airport we might prioritise added value services and passenger services. Each scenario can model priorities for different parameters so client sites can determine whether there is a most effective solution for their needs or consider the impact of different trade-offs. This algorithm is based on one that is successfully used in the airline industry to optimise aircraft movements and is the first time that it has been applied for surface transport. |

Latent Logic Latent Logic is a spin-out from the University of Oxford. We enable the safe, scalable, virtual testing of autonomous vehicles. Understanding the behaviour of other road users is the biggest challenge for a self-driving car, and can only be tested safely in simulation, not on real roads. We use state-of-the-art deep learning to build “virtual humans” for these simulated test environments. What’s unique about our technology is the realism of our virtual drivers, cyclists and pedestrians. We capture the subtleties and variety of human behaviour, like safe or aggressive driving, through applying Computer Vision and Imitation Learning to traffic videos. |

what3words

Mercades-Benz became the first automaker to launch what3words in vehicles A recent JD Power survey found that car navigation systems being difficult to use and inaccurate is one of the most frequently reported problems, along with voice recognition issues. The automotive industry has struggled to improve these features, because the world’s street addressing systems are incompatible with modern navigation needs, especially voice input. Addresses were not built for voice input. 240 California Street and to 40 California Street are hard for a voice system to distinguish between, and many road names aren’t unique. There are 14 different Church Roads in London, 632 Juarez Streets in Mexico City and 71 Peachtree Streets in Atlanta. Every 3 word address is unique and the AutoSuggest feature helps correct mistakes, making sure drivers reach the correct destination, every time. what3words enables Mercedes-Benz drivers to input 3 words to reach any 10ftx 10ft location. This allows drivers to input not just a building, but a precise entrance or parking spot, for a truly seamless experience. |
