Hyundai | Aptiv | New Autonomous Driving Joint Venture the JV’S Plan to Land Signifcant Revenue from Robo­Taxi Feets by 2025 Was Made Prior to the Covid-19 Pandemic On Automotive Electronics THE HANSEN REPORT ON AUTomoTIVE ELECTRONICS Hyundai | Aptiv | New Autonomous Driving Joint Venture The JV’s plan to land signifcant revenue from robo taxi feets by 2025 was made prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. That plan has not been altered but it has caused the company to consider modify- ing its product. These days most people would be unwilling to jump into a robotaxi for fear of contact with unclean surfaces. The JV is considering a num- ber of initiatives to keep robotaxis disinfected, either manually or automatically. And further, it will have to make the entire mobility experience as non-con- tact as possible, maybe with access doors that open and close automatically. It would be far better for the JV (and everyone) if we soon have a vaccine and they do not need to consider how to operate with the risks of contagion. © scharfsinn86 | stock.adobe.com The JV is pointing toward three ways in which it The JV plans to have some kind of driverless system ready for the robotaxi market by 2022 will distinguish itself from Waymo, Cruise, Argo AI, Aurora and the many other autonomous vehicle developers.

This article reviews prior research on AVs and society, and articulates future needs. Research to assess future societal change induced by AVs has grown dramatically in recent years. The critical challenge in assessing the societal implications of AVs is forecasting how consumers and businesses will use them. Researchers are predicting the future use of AVs by consumers through stated preference surveys, finding analogs in current behaviors, utility optimization models, and/or staging empirical “AV-equivalent” experiments. While progress is being made, it is important to recognize that potential behavioral change induced by AVs is massive in scope and that forecasts are difficult to validate. For example, AVs could result in many consumers abandoning private vehicles for ride-share services, vastly increased travel by minors, the elderly and other groups unable to drive, and/or increased recreation and commute miles driven due to increased utility of in-vehicle time. We argue that significantly increased efforts are needed from the AVs and society research community to ensure 1) the important behavioral changes are analyzed and 2) models are explicitly evaluated to characterize and reduce uncertainty.

  • Mobileye Outlines Strategy for Driving Significant Growth
    November 5, 2019 Mobileye Outlines Strategy for Driving Significant Growth Advanced Driver-Assist Business Takes Off; Design Wins Announced; Profits Funding Robotaxi Future JERUSALEM--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- During an investor summit today at Mobileye headquarters in Jerusalem, Mobileye President and CEO Professor Amnon Shashua projected significant and sustained revenue growth for the next decade. The forecast was offered within a broader strategy update that included new data points across Mobileye’s lines of business, an expanded total available market (TAM) and new customer announcements. At the event, Intel CFO George Davis described Mobileye as one of the company’s strategic, data-centric growth opportunities, which is outperforming Intel’s initial expectations. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20191105005383/en/ “Intel is participating in an expanded and increasingly data-centric TAM,” Davis said. “As one of Intel’s big bets, Mobileye is a critical part of Intel’s future and is already exceeding our expectations with ADAS revenue today that is funding the future of driverless cars.” In the 2019's third quarter, Mobileye achieved another record quarter with 20 percent revenue growth year over year driven by continued advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) momentum. As one of the most successful acquisitions in Intel’s history, Mobileye is now Intel’s fastest growing business on an annualized basis. The strength of Mobileye’s business today is largely attributable to a rapidly expanding ADAS market, while its future business will expand greatly with forays into data monetization and the nascent robotaxi market. “Mobileye is uniquely creating economic and societal value every day of the journey to fully autonomous vehicles,” Shashua said.

  • Autonomous Taxi Service Design and User Experience
    Manuscript submitted to International Journal of Human–Computer Interaction Autonomous Taxi Service Design and User Experience Sangwon Kim1, Jennifer Jah Eun Chang1, Hyun Ho Park1, Seon Uk Song1, Chang Bae Cha1, Ji Won Kim1, Namwoo Kang2,* 1Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Korea 2Sookmyung Women’s University, Korea * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT As autonomous-vehicle technologies advance, conventional taxi and car sharing services are being combined into a shared autonomous vehicle service, and through this, it is expected that the transition to a new paradigm of shared mobility will begin. However, before the full development of technology, it is necessary to accurately identify the needs of the service’s users and prepare customer-oriented design guidelines accordingly. This study is concerned with the following problems: (1) How should an autonomous taxi service be designed and field- tested if the self-driving technology is imperfect? (2) How can imperfect self-driving technology be supplemented by using service flexibility? This study implements an autonomous taxi service prototype through a Wizard of Oz method. Moreover, by conducting field tests with scenarios involving an actual taxi, this study examines customer pain points, and provides a user-experience-based design solutions for resolving them. Keywords: Autonomous Taxi, Car Sharing, Service Design, User Experience, Wizard of OZ 1. INTRODUCTION Similar to conventional automobile companies and IT companies, car-sharing service providers such as Uber and Lyft are accelerating the commercialization of autonomous vehicles (TechWorld, 2018). Although there are some differences, most companies are aiming to create autonomous vehicles of level 4 or higher based on the standard of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) by 2020 (Business Insider, 2016).
