The San Francisco on-demand transportation company announced Tuesday it has been piloting a program that uses the gyrometers and GPS technology in its drivers smartphones to measure movements such
トヨタ自動車は、自動運転の早期実現を可能にする地図自動生成システムを開発。2016年1月6日から9日に米国ラスベガスで開催される「2016 インターナショナル CES」で展示すると発表した。 自動運転の実現のためには、自車位置情報や道路構造、交通ルールの把握が必須で、その情報は、定期的に更新することが求められている。これまでは3次元レーザースキャナーを搭載した計測車両が実際に走行しデータ収集していたため、地図の更新頻度が少なく、情報鮮度の高い地図は得られなかった。また、道路の白線や標識などは人手をかけて専用地図データを作成していたため、多大なコストがかかっていた。 今回開発したシステムは、豊田中央研究所が開発した空間情報の自動生成技術「COSMIC」を採用。カメラを装着した車両が走行中に収集した路面の画像データとGPSによる位置情報をデータセンターに集約し補正することで、自動的に広域の高精

Most days, there are very few students to be found in business analytics software startup Alteryx’s training facilities. That actually makes chairman and CEO Dean Stoecker pretty happy. “We have countless stories of customers finding success without even talking to us,” he says. In other words, things are going according to plan for the five-year-old company, which is on a mission to bring “self-s

Between TVs, refrigerators, ovens, light bulbs, cars, fitness trackers and jewelry, it seems like everything these days is connected to the Internet. It’s probably safe to say that you’re already using a few connected devices in your daily life.

The mining industry in 2016: Sensors, robots, and drones (oh my!) It’s not easy to be in the mining industry today.

Earlier this year a CDW survey revealed that analytics is a top priority for two thirds of decision-makers in the health care industry.
