Connected Car
Joan Cros/NurPhoto/GettyGerman sustainable mobility start-up, Compredict, is working on artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled software for predictive maintenance and usage monitoring of vehicles. In a partnership with Silicon Valley-based software company Palantir Technologies, the company is working on virtual sensors for connected vehicles to improve both efficiency and sustainability. Dr. Stéphane Foulard, Compredict CEO and co-founder, told Verdict that virtual sensors in vehicles can measure things which are not usually measured. With this information, another virtual sensor is capable of predicting when the tyre will reach the end of its life, explains Foulard. The applications for virtual sensor technology apply to the manufacturing of vehicles and various stages of the vehicle value chain.
