January 05, 2023 Continental and Ambarella, Inc., an edge AI semiconductor company, announced a strategic partnership. The two companies will jointly develop scalable, end-to-end hardware and software solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI), for assisted and automated driving (AD), on the way to autonomous mobility.

Software Driving Planner enables highly automated driving on motorways.

The robotic vehicle Corriere is ideal for use in the so-called last mile: for transporting food, medicines or smaller packages to the end customer. A mobility solution like the Corriere can significantly ease the burden on inner-city traffic if people no longer have to get into their cars to buy a liter of milk, a lunch package or an order from the pharmacy.

Our future roadmap is ready. We unveiled our realigned strategy at the end of 2020 at our Capital Markets Day event.

To ensure Seamless Mobility, numerous technical prerequisites must be fulfilled.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is used to learn required behavior from data. AI can be used as early as at the data acquisition stage to identify driving scenarios of specific interest in the raw dataset. This is how Big Data becomes Smart Data.

From Vision to Perception: How safety and assistance systems reliably detect hazards and obstacles.

Whether and when autonomous driving is possible on European roads is decided to a large extent by the United Nations. Their draft laws regulate the industry, provide the legal framework, and create global standards.

A conventional commercial vehicle is on the move for about nine hours a day, that means only about a third of the day. The limiting factor is the driver, who is restricted by drivers' working hours. A fully automated vehicle, on the contrary, can operate almost around the clock on certain routes. As a result, the actual benefit is significantly greater than that of a passenger car - a fully automated truck immediately generates real value, which is reflected in the total cost of ownership (TCO), being a reduced by a third. Fully automated trucks are therefore a true economic factor.

Digital, intelligent, future-oriented: When implementing Industry 4.0, Continental is pursuing a holistic approach that connects and revolutionizes the entire production process chain.

Environment sensors provide the necessary information for highly automated driving.

Development platform from Continental ensures safety of driverless vehicles.

Continental demonstrates the future of highly automated driving on highways.

The driver exits their vehicle at a transfer point and lets their vehicle park autonomously.

Continental C.A.R.E™ enables tires to perform maintenance on themselves.

On September 11, 1968, Continental’s first electronically controlled driverless car took to the Contidrom.

Full speed ahead into the future: From the test track to public roads – automated driving in real-life road traffic
