Automobile
technology is rapidly evolving. Computer systems with sensors that can park our
cars for us, wireless connectivity, and important safety revolutions have
already hit the market. Self-driving cars are the next huge breakthrough set to
revolutionize driving and the time we spend in our vehicles. No longer a
distant dream, self-driving cars are highly likely to be on the market within
most of our lifetimes, and possibly within the next decade. The future is here,
and Mitsubishi is keeping pace with its commitment to advancing technology.
The Car
of the Not-So-Distant Future
Self-driving
and autonomous automobile technology is rapidly accelerating due to inexpensive
computers and more accurate algorithms for object recognition and other “smart”
functions. For example, last year, scientists were able to
create
algorithms for object recognition that had an error rate of less than 5%--which
is lower than the average error rate for humans! Self-driving cars will rely on
artificial intelligence for accurate object recognition, so low error rates are
key. Indeed, it is thought that automobile technology may outpace insurance and
government regulations, as well as public infrastructure’s ability to adapt to
such advancements like autonomous cars and hybrid fueling and charging
stations.
In the
meantime, expect to see cars that gradually incorporate more artificial
intelligence and autonomous features, such as predictive technology. This could
mean that your car and your Smartphone will be seamlessly integrated so that
your car knows where you’re going, as well as traffic patterns and routes,
before you even get into it. Improved object recognition and sensors will most
likely assist drivers in collision avoidance, staying in lanes, steering, and
even passing other vehicles for the driver, according to Techradar.
Mitsubishi’s
Commitment to Evolving Technology
The
latest Mitsubishi models already integrate some of the newest technology on the
market, such as rearview cameras, Bluetooth hands-free dialing, and Smartphone
integration. Mitsubishi strives to be on the cutting edge of technological
advancement. You can view many of their engineering milestones here. Mitsubishi also is at the
helm of the ever-evolving auto industry with their studio lab, where concept
cars and future cars are created. Imagine possibilities for the future by
