LG has partnered with Microsoft to help grow its autonomous vehicle and infotainment system business by leveraging Microsoft’s Azure cloud and AI technologies along with LG’s future self-driving software developments.
LG will apply Microsoft’s AI knowledge to its Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), Driver-Status Monitoring Camera (DSM) and Multi-Purpose Front Camera products and incorporate Microsoft’s Virtual Assistant Solution Accelerator in LG’s infotainment systems.
With Azure Data Box service, data captured on the road can be uploaded automatically to create a library that helps the self-driving software grow even smarter. Azure can help AI self-driving software learn diverse patterns displayed by drivers as well as recognize and distinguish between pedestrians and other objects (seen above). The system will also allow drivers to easily and quickly check traffic conditions on the road, search for nearby restaurants, call up favorite songs and more.
