STOCKHOLM, Dec. 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Autoliv, Inc. (NYSE: ALV and SSE: ALIVsdb), the worldwide leader
in automotive safety systems, will reveal at CES 2018® in
Las Vegas its Learning Intelligent
Vehicle (LIV) 2.0, a real human/machine interactionthat will help
shape consumer acceptance of autonomous vehicles.
LIV 2.0 is a "5th occupant in the vehicle", capable of sensing
driver and passenger instructions and moods through an array of
sensors that track sound and hand movements, and then communicate
with fellow human occupants. LIV 2.0 is not a friendly voice
overlay on a machine – it is the vehicle itself, equipped to sense
and interact in various ways with drivers and passengers, while
learning from those experiences.
"You do not use your car like a smartphone, but rather, you put
your physical safety in your vehicle's hands, so shared control and
two-way trust between human and machine are crucial for the
development and adoption of autonomous vehicles," says Ola Boström,
VP Research at Autoliv.
At LIV's core are deep learning algorithms that enable effective
communication, including sensing driver gaze, emotion, cognitive
load, drowsiness, hand position, posture and then fusing this
information with data on the external environment to yield driving
experiences that are not only safer, but feel that way, too.
The LIV research platform will use the latest technologies
developed by Autoliv to answer questions, such as: Under what
unique circumstances will a driver need to assert control? Do
technically accurate functions like deceleration or turning need to
be modified to address passenger concerns? How should a smart car
interact with people who are occupied with entertainment or other
mobility experiences?
"Consumer reaction to this evolutionary change in how they
operate or ride in vehicles remains an open question," adds
Boström. "LIV will help innovate ways to make cars equally as
intelligent about what's going on in the interior of the cabin as
they are about the road outside."
