Colloque sur la sécurité Routière / Road Safety Conference

Paris, March 20th 2024.

“3500 morts par an sur les routes depuis 10 ans : et maintenant on fait quoi ?”

La ligue de défense des conducteurs a organisé un colloque pour faire le point sur les mesures gouvernementales depuis plusieurs décennies en matière de sécurité routière.
Il ressort des interventions des trois tables rondes, que l’Etat Français a beaucoup misé sur la répression, que l’état des routes en France se dégrade depuis la décentralisation et la perte en compétence des équipes de l’équipement éclatées par département. Les nouvelles mobilités, bicyclettes et trotinettes partageant souvent une même infrastruture ont augmenté l’accidentologie des vulnérables peu protégés. Et les moyens financiers pour une bonne éducation des jeunes conducteurs semblent manquer.
Les points positifs étant l’amélioration de la sécurité active et passive des véhicules depuis plus d’une vingtaine d’années et la prise en charge plus rapide et plus efficace des blessés de la route par les services de santé et de traumatologie.

The French Drivers’ Defense League organized a conference to take stock of government measures over several decades in terms of road safety. Despite multiplication of speed cameras and lower speed limits, the number of fatalities is stable for 10 year around 3500 each year in France.
It emerges from the interventions of the three round tables that the French State has relied heavily on repression, that the state of the roads in France has deteriorated since decentralization and the loss of skills of the equipment teams split up by department. New forms of mobility, bicycles and scooters often sharing the same infrastructure, have increased the number of accidents among poorly protected vulnerable people. And the financial means for a good education of young drivers seem to be lacking.
The positive points being the improvement in active and passive safety of vehicles over more than twenty years and the faster and more effective treatment of road injuries by health and trauma services.

Test by Renault of Nexyad Democar Dreamotor1 around TechnoCentre

 
Guyancourt, March 7th 2024.

We had the pleasure to carry two staff member of Renault for a test ride of Dreamotor1 around TechnoCentre. 

SafetyNex provides in real time prudent recommended speed, lack of prudence alerts and instant prudent speed for Driver Assistance. See an example of use-case below :


 
This video was made in our democar Dreamotor1.
On the screen we can see the HMI (for engineers) with the road captured by a dashcam. On the top left of the screen there are the current speed of the vehicle, the speed limit sign, and just below the next speed limit read on the map.
The colored square on the left says the driving is prudent, it can be yellow when it’s time to be vigilant and even red if driving is at risk. When a singularity is detected, the road sign is pasted with the distance where to apply recommended speed in order stay prudent.
Below the colored square, risk target indicates the level of max accepted risk to stay green. In this example, we vary the risk target to see adaptation of the system to different drivings : from very prudent to prudent.
On the top center, we show action of the blinkers indicating new direction at the Electronic Horizon.
 

Global Logic executive on visit at Nexyad has tested Dreamotor1

Saint Germain en Laye, February 13th 2024.

Nexyad invited a Global Logic executive for a test with Dreamotor1 today, on open roads around our office in St Germain en Laye.

SafetyNex provides in real time prudent recommended speed, lack of prudence alerts and instant prudent speed for predictive ACC and Autonomous Vehicle. SafetyNex goes further than Intelligent Speed Assitance ISA (which is just a reminder of speed limit signs on roads), SafetyNex gives the prudent speed by anticipation everywhere it can be tricky for the driver and his/her passengers.


 

Demonstration of AI SafetyNex in Dreamotor 1 for NETWALK

Saint Germain en Laye, February 13th 2024.

We had the pleasure to showcase our road safety AI SafetyNex for NETWALK in the streets of St Germain en Laye and its neighbourghood, with our DREAMOTOR1 demo car.
SafetyNex provides in real time prudent recommended speed, lack of prudence alerts and instant prudent speed for predictive ACC and Autonomous Vehicle.

Thanks to our friend coming from Germany.

V2X Video Demo of Hazard Warning use-case: Cooperation between YoGoKo & Nexyad in Dreamotor1

Guyancourt, October 13th 2023.

YoGoKo staff members Didier Ledain and Christophe Couturier came from Britanny for this first Demo of Hazard Warning Use-Case in Nexyad Dreamotor1.

Nexyad Dreamotor1 vehicle integrates Hybrid AI SafetyNex which performs on-board analysis of the Driving Behavior in relation with Road Context, in real time (20 times/s). SafetyNex allows to Anticipate singularities on road in order to assist drivers or pilot a predictive ACC.

The exchange of data between the vehicle and other entities (other vehicles, road infrastructure, vulnerable road users such as pedestrians or 2-wheelers and the cloud) is performed using YoGoKo’s unified communication & data management software platform (Y-SMART).

YoGoKo Christophe Couturier & Nexyad Johann Brunet

The demonstration here shows reaction of SafetyNex to an incoming message originated from some Hazard Warning info platform, using V2X communications. The message informs that a motorcycle is laying on ground after an accident.

When Dreamotor1 is informed of the hidden accident at some known distance ahead, it provides the information to the driver (asking to slow down), or it reduces automatically speed in ACC mode.

This is a perfect exemple of the integration of Nexyad and YoGoKo technologies for cooperative use-cases.

Dreamotor1 uses Intempora RTMaps for development and execution of our Real Time multi sensor AI application tool SafetyNex. Intempora is a dSPACE Company since 2020. Nexyad wishes reinforce partnership with dSPACE as modelled on what has been done last year through Aurelion, RTMaps and Nexyad Vision RoadNex and ObstaNex : https://youtu.be/icVKm9XMUtY

Integrated in Dreamotor1, SafetyNex provides in real time prudent recommended speed, lack of prudence alerts and instant prudent speed for predictive ACC and Autonomous Vehicle. SafetyNex goes further than Intelligent Speed Assitance ISA (which is just a reminder of speed limit signs on roads), SafetyNex gives the prudent speed by anticipation everywhere it can be tricky for the driver and his/her passengers.

NEXYAD at HERE Technologies EMEA Tech Day 2023

Paris la Défense, september 19th 2023.

Nexyad was present to the HERE Technologies EMEA Tech Day 2023 at their QG in La Défense Paris.
For part of the day, Here directors and staff outlined their vision and products for the years to come. There has been a lot of talk about Software Defined Vehicle or SDV, which refers to the ability to evolve vehicle functions throughout its life, thanks to a centralized architecture, allowing the installation of new applications and over-the-air updates.
Thanks to HERE, we had the opportunity to present our hybrid AI SafetyNex to the audience (KIA, NISSAN, CONTINENTAL, HARMAN, HYUNDAI, RENAULT, STELLANTIS, and many others).
SafetyNex is a knowledge based Artificial Intelligence which give a metric of driving prudence. This prudence or lack of prudence is computed on board 20 time per second regarding static and dynamic road context. Information of static context (road infrastructure) comes from readed an analysed through enriched eHorizon.

Thanks to Patrick Jean, Gilles Martinelli and Olivier Beldi.
