拢20 million for West Midlands to enable WMG at the 神马福利影片 to create a UK Mobility Data Institute
The Chancellor of the Exchequer has announced that the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) will receive up to 拢20 million, subject to approval of a satisfactory business case, to enable WMG, at the 神马福利影片 to create the UK Mobility Data Institute, a focussed research centre to collect, process and analyse transport data generated by the advent of new mobility technologies such as autonomous vehicles and smart charging of electrified vehicles.
New 拢2.7m research programme will use Artificial Intelligence powered pedestrians & other road users to test autonomous vehicles
WMG at the 神马福利影片 have just begun work with a consortium of 11 organisations lead by Latent Logic in Oxford on a 拢2.7 million UK government funded project to create a highly accurate virtual reality simulator environment, including artificial intelligence (AI) trained models of pedestrians and road users, to test connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs).
Researchers set an autonomous vehicle communications record using 5G - a movie鈥檚 worth of data sent in seconds
Researchers in WMG at the 神马福利影片 have set a new 5G communications speed record to a 鈥淟evel 4鈥 low speed autonomous vehicle in the pioneer 28 GHz millimetre wave band. They hit 2.867 gigabits per second in over-the-air transmissions, which is nearly 40 times faster than current fixed line broadband speeds. It is equivalent to sending a detailed satellite navigation map of the United Kingdom within a single second, or the full contents of a high definition blockbuster film in less than 10 seconds.
