People express thoughts to communicate their feelings about events, other people and objects that surround them. These can assume the shape of different emotions, according to how the input impacted and was elaborated by the subject. Thus, an opinion can be seen as a form of elaboration of taste made by a subject towards an object to which he found himself in contact with. Once an opinion is formed, sharing is a subsequent step that allows people to be in contact and thus giving sense to human as a social living being. Thus, expressing an opinion is sometimes a way to express oneself, to tray relating to people in the social fabric. The evolution that sharing have had in modern era is unprecedented, and the main point of this progress is given by the exponential increase of the audience that can elaborate a certain message expressed by one subject. In other terms, nowadays one sender has millions and millions of receivers: if this is multiplied by each subject expressing a thought, the number generated would be just huge.

Licentiate Thesis in Electrical Engineering KTH Royal Institute of Technology Stockholm, Sweden 2020 © Gonçalo Collares Pereira ISBN: 978-91-7873-580-8 TRITA-EECS-AVL-2020:38 Printed by: Universitetsservice US-AB, Sweden 2020 Abstract Autonomous vehicle technology is shaping the future of road transportation. This technology promises safer, greener, and more efficient means of transportation for everyone. Autonomous vehicles are expected to have their first big impact in closed environments, such as mining areas, ports, and construction sites, where heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) operate. Although research for autonomous systems has boomed in recent years, there are still many challenges associated with them. This thesis addresses lateral motion control for autonomous HDVs using model predictive control (MPC). First, the autonomous vehicle architecture and, in particular, the control module architecture are introduced. The control module receives the current vehicle states and a trajectory to follow, and requests a velocity and a steering-wheel angle to the vehicle actuators. Moreover, the control module needs to handle system delays, maintain certain error bounds, respect actuation constraints, and provide a safe and comfortable ride.

  • Grand Innovations
    GRAND INNOVATIONS Inside The Success of Tesla's Model S and Failure of the DeLorean DMC-12 IZZAT ZAILAN NOTE This piece of writing was originally a part of an assignment for a course called Technology and Innovation Marketing. So, to give you a better context for your read ahead, the course is concerned with the strategies for bringing a high-tech product into the mainstream market. Why is this so important? Because high-tech products, naturally, carry a lot of uncertainty. The majority of consumers are skeptical about whether the product is safe, if it’s worth its high price, if it solves any important needs, or if it could actually deliver a good performance as promised. Not only that, for the inventors, there’s no telling when that technology is going to be obsolete, or the threat of competition that they might have to deal with. Some strategies for a high-tech product to be adopted in the mainstream market are focusing on a specific target market, delivering a “whole” product experience, and appropriate pricing, which we will uncover in deeper detail. Anyway, I hope you’ll find this writing insightful. 1 TESLA Company Background “The only thing that makes sense to do is strive for greater collective enlightenment,” said Elon Musk, the current CEO of Tesla. Tesla is the leading brand as well as the pioneer of fully-electric cars, based in Palo Alto, California. They have built a solid reputation over the years for envisioning and executing highly-innovative vehicles that are expected to revolutionize the future of automation, as they are grounded in the concept of renewable energy.
