Applying Machine Learning & Sensing Technologies to Accelerate the Connected Car

"We as an industry have to figure out how to get gigabytes of data off our cars" Renovo Motors, says the traditional concept of a vehicle platform faces potential radical change in an era dominated by software, electronics and the rise of autonomous vehicle technology. At the Machine Intelligence in Autonomous Vehicles Summit on 23-24 March in San Francisco, Ioannis Petousis, Head of Data Science at Renovo Motors will be presenting on a panel discussion exploring how we can apply machine learning and sensing technologies to accelerate the connected car. Autonomous vehicles are a huge technological endeavor that combines some of the latest advancements from various fields - from mechanical engineering and materials science, to electrical engineering and computer science. I love both cars and technology, so it was an easy choice for me. What are the key factors that have enabled recent advancements in autonomous vehicles?
