Besides Uber, you should pay attention to these traffic techniques.

When people are going to summarize the 2014 transportation industry, it may be about Uber traffic accidents, scandals, lawsuits and Uber. Many people seem to like the negative news. And today Lei Feng Network to share is the transportation industry exciting some breakthrough events. Some of them you may not have heard of, but these events that really happen in 2014 years and may change the way we travel in the future you deserve to know.

According to the April blog platform CityLab, Google Unmanned vehicles can complete the acceleration, deceleration, change lanes and other driving tasks. And Google is also speeding up the process, ready to launch its early prototypes in January next year and test in Northern California, which is expected to make its debut in 2017. In fact, the popularity of unmanned driving is only a matter of time, this revolutionary car will be closer and nearer to us.

History will certainly remember the 2014 US high-speed rail breakthrough. California Los Angeles-San Francisco Line finally got a steady bankroll to build. But given the enormity of the project, or the help of other private high iron projects, this great feat will be facilitated.

This year, Electric bicycle company Superpedestrian opened its book and began to volume its revolutionary Copenhagen wheels. It is understood that Copenhagen wheels can turn ordinary bicycles into electric bikes. This wheel has the potential to change the history of American bicycles. In the next 20, the United States will be one of the major markets for electric bicycles in the world, Nate Berg said on CityLab.

This year, the United States Honolulu rapid transit government agencies to use some key technologies to complete the first fully automated, large-scale urban transportation system. At the same time, there are nine public bidding sites, one of which is airport design. There are a number of cities around the world that use unmanned transport systems, such as this year's London claim to join the system. In addition, as more trains keep getting closer, the demand for security is growing.

JumpStartFund, a start-up company based in California State El Segundo, began work on Hyperloop high-speed trains. It is understood that ultra-high-speed concept trains with transport cabin loaded passengers, more than 800 miles/hour (about 1300 km/h) speed, in the entire United States, the rapid movement of pipelines.

Self-driving cars must have very precise positioning capabilities, and GPS and cameras are often disturbed by uncertainties, in order to solve the problem, Volvo launched a road implant magnet auxiliary Vehicle Driving plan: a large number of magnets buried in the road surface 2.5 meters below, and through the magnetic field sensors to collect data, Help to locate the car automatically. The project is currently being tested on a specially modified highway in Sweden.

In order to prevent the pit dad's place to repair the car master, Audi has launched the art (Audi robotic telepresence) robot in the United States, it can act as the Audi all retail outlets "the car repair assistant", supervises and effectively assists the maintenance personnel to carry on the maintenance work. Through "robot assistants", car problems can be solved by experienced engineers at Headquarters. It is understood that the "robot assistant" is equipped with endoscope, camera and display, can move around everywhere. When the robot checks the car, the video that is taken in real time is transmitted to the headquarters engineer, where the engineer can judge the problem of the car and instruct the local staff to repair it remotely.

Driverless car city plan in Singapore

The Singapore Science and Technology Research Council and the Land Transport Authority have recently signed a five-year memorandum of Cooperation, and a special committee has been set up to implement the driverless car city scheme, comprising 17 people, including representatives of transport agencies, internationally renowned experts, academics and the industry. In the next two years, the Commission will first complete the research and development of driverless vehicles and devote 5 years to taking the lead in making Singapore a more livable city in the world. It is understood that Singapore will test driverless cars on city roads in 2015.

The above is this year in the traffic field of breakthrough events, there are you know there are also you do not know, anyway, with the development of science and technology, the development of transport industry has shown good momentum.
