Acer a Taiwanese tech giant displayed its most anticipated self driving concept car at Taiwan Automotive Technology Innovation Summit 2018.<\/p>\n

Yulon Group, one of the top automakers and its subsidiaries HAITEC and Luxgen have worked with Acer on this project to bring their vision of AI and autonomous driving technology into a reality. The concept car packs key features like Advanced Driver\u00a0Assistance\u00a0Systems (ADAS), Internet of Vehicles (IoV), and autonomous driving technology.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cBoth the automotive and ICT industries are going through a paradigm shift; automation, connectivity, electrification, and \u2018servicification\u2019 are key trends of future development,\u201d said Edward Lin, Associate Vice President,\u00a0Value Lab, Acer Inc. \u201cIn the realm of smart transportation, Acer already has a foothold in electronic ticketing, smart parking, connected car, and traffic prediction, and we\u2019re excited to work with Yulon Group to venture into self-driving cars.\u201d Adding to that he further stated that \u201cWith Acer\u2019s strength across software, hardware, and services, we\u2019re in a great position to leverage our AI technology and fulfill\u00a0the vision of\u00a0Mobility as a Service (MaaS).\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In the upcoming trend of automation which will be\u00a0immensely\u00a0impactful in pretty much every industry, Self Driving Cars adds a great means to it.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The self-driving concept car which according to the company is made\u00a0on the 4th level autonomous driving and\u00a0is based\u00a0on the Luxgen S3 electric vehicle platform, which also incorporates Acer\u2019s autonomous driving system, encompasses sensing, decision-making, and control.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The self-driving System of Acer also leverages AI along with sensor fusion algorithms fed with data from real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning, cameras, Lidars, MMW radars, IMU (inertial measurement unit) and ultrasonic sensors. To conduct object recognition implementation dynamic vehicle control to realize autonomous driving the system\u00a0utilizes\u00a0the concept of Deep Learning, according to the press release.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Acer further mentioned in its press release\u00a0that\u00a0it makes its dynamic vehicle control decisions through\u00a0utilizing\u00a0AI models based on key data, including image recognition, 3D Lidar obstacle detection, high-precision maps, and real-time positioning. And incorporating all these essential elements the driving system will be\u00a0easily\u00a0capable enough to the steer, brake, cruise, maneuver, and park.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Besides that, the Self Driving System also includes a cloud management system for car sharing services so a control center can send vehicles when users make transportation requests on their mobile device. The system can manage scheduling, monitoring, notifying, and reporting. It also allows safety monitoring and human mediation.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Acer aims to enable multiple levels of autonomous driving\u00a0utilizing\u00a0its self-driving system\u00a0in the future, to collaborate on next-generation self-driving services, along with plans to open a platform for partners and developers.<\/div>\n
