Deep-learning minds wanted!
Gothenburg, 16 November. Software powerhouse Zenseact, specializing in AI-based safety for autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems, announces the expansion of its deep-learning team. Rooted in the vibrant, tech-savvy heart of Gothenburg – Lindholmen – Zenseact now invites applications from skilled individuals ready to take on a formidable engineering challenge: achieving automated driving with […]
Advancing autonomous driving
Zenseact advances AD technology by providing industry peers and researchers with impressively robust, anonymized traffic data from diverse environments with unparalleled sensor range and resolution. Gothenburg, 6 October, 2023. Data collection vehicles equipped with sensors such as lidar and cameras are fundamental in gathering the data needed to train cars to drive autonomously. Sensing can […]
The new road ahead
AD technology is manifested in robotaxis, passenger cars, and heavy goods vehicles. But they all follow distinct development pathways and face unique motivations and challenges. So far, robotaxis have shown the way to full, unsupervised automation. Waymo was the first to get the green light to run its driverless taxi service in California and quickly […]
Leading with people at heart
Zenseact is on a mission to develop world-leading safety software for autonomous driving, and we take pride in offering an open-minded and socially conscious workplace. But why is diversity, inclusion, and belonging so important for us? Building self-driving car technology is complicated, mainly because the real world is full of surprises. To develop software for […]
It all ADs up
Right now, we focus on reducing fatalities and serious injuries. But as technology progresses, automation will become so safe virtually any collision can be avoided. We’ll raise an extra glass when automation can prevent fender-benders or even the slightest scratch, which, incidentally, account for a much more significant economic loss than more severe outcomes. For […]
Hope for the best and prepare for the worst
Are we imposing unrealistic requirements on automation? Should we be more relaxed in determining an AD system’s capabilities? Or are we simply fulfilling our responsibilities? Let’s explore the realities a self-driving car would face. In the world of autonomous driving, the term “safe” is generally defined similarly to how it would be for a human […]
A safer version of you?
A broken-down truck on the shoulder of a highway. A person behind the truck walks out into the lane. Suddenly, a car passes at high speed. In this scenario, a fatal collision is inevitable. It all happens too fast. No automated system in the world can react fast enough. Therefore, the only way to avoid a […]
Better safe than sorry
Some of us find it hard to trust a machine to take control of something as important as driving. What if the almighty AI fails? It’s still a relatively new technology, and some of us might be uncomfortable with the idea of not having a human driver at the wheel. Moreover, self-driving cars could be […]
Zenseact and the software factory
The widespread availability of unsupervised automation for consumer cars is still years away. But that doesn’t mean the fundamental technology isn’t here. Not at all. Instead, the challenge lies in deploying the software and continuously improving it based on its performance in traffic. There are various attempts to address safety for automated vehicles. One option […]
Down the rabbit hole
Feeling safe is vital for our physical, emotional, and psychological well-being, and it fundamentally affects our existence and experiences. But it isn’t always so straightforward. Take the pandemic. Many of us tried to stay safe by staying home, but this also meant dealing with feelings of confinement, limitation, and anxiety. So, safety isn’t always about […]
