Thursday, november 17th 2022 at Continental in Rambouillet, France.
Presentation to Continental Rambouillet teams of the “NextCar” collaborative demonstrators of innovations driven by the NextMove competitiveness cluster and the « Dreamotor1 » demonstratorcollaborative of the company Nexyad. The NextCar demonstrator currently incorporates 5 innovations, technology bricks providing solutions on the main strategic axes of innovation of the sector: reduction of the footprint environment of vehicles, electrification, road safety, automation.
This Techday was organized by Nextmove with its General Manager Marc Charlet and by Jean-Yves le Gall, Head of Research and Advanced Engineering at Continental.

Validation of different prudence targets changing the sportiveness of driving. Easy to tune differently for different trademarks.
Guyancourt, November 7th 2022, Continental staff members tried Dreamotor1 with new HMI.
Demonstration of modern ACC speed request to adjust to real complex infrastructure situations, in urban and peri-urban areas. ACC speed request computed by NEXYAD AI module SafetyNex (XAI – eXplanable Artificial Intelligence). This physics informed hybrid artificial intelligence module involves highest levels of Artificial Intelligence techniques: Fuzzy Logic, Possibility Theory, Deep Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Neural Gas, Physics of car dynamics, Applied maths. Reason of speed request is pasted on dashboard.
NEXYAD’s Hybrid Physics-Informed eXplanable Artificial Intelligence is under integration into the vehicle prototype NEXTCAR of the French Research
cluster NextMove. This vehicle gathers innovations from 5 high technology SMEs and startups and was shown at event EQUIPAUTO in Paris on the booth
of NextMove.

Very interesting discussion of NEXYAD CEO with French Minister Roland Lescure about Artificial Intelligence for prudence measurement and road safety.
Good contacts made by NEXYAD on booths with companies that work for fleets and data collecting.
NEXYAD CEO spoke at a round table for Maths students from all French Universities, and he explained NEXYAD
activity on advanced Artificial Intelligence for road safety, and the special place of maths in the company.
In particular, he talked about AI Knowledge Representation, Fuzzy logic, Possibility Theory, Deep Learning,
Reinforcement Learning, and Neural Gas. He also insisted on Physics-Informed AI and on the complexity of
transforming a real world problem in maths with simplicity.

Friday morning october 7th, expert engineers from Renault have tested SafetyNex assistance to driver in Dreamotor1.
Demo of safety coach features calculated by NEXYAD AI SafetyNex. Computed in real time in the vehicle (embedded solution), or as a precalculated connected service for some features.
In the context of a technological partnership, DSPACE applied with success an advanced AI module of NEXYAD on the asynchonous real time framework RTMaps, for guiding autonomous driving robots: drivable surface detection from a camera, with our AI perception module RoadNex.
Note : free space detection here is performed only based on the camera video stream. The lidar sensor that is displayed is not used for this free-space detection and can be used for other functions (e.g. SLAM-based positioning, objects detection, free-space redundancy… what so ever).
This period is an intense moment for NEXYAD, whose 4 on-board AI modules for automotive and land mobility are validated and in the process of being deployed. We are proud of the product of our customer MtC which integrates our three vision modules (+ lidar) VisiNEx, RoadNex, and ObstaNex, for the detection of rails and obstacles on trams, metros, trains. Our integrator in India, MONTBLEU Technologies has put our SafetyNex prudence assessment module in a smartphone App for driving schools, insurers, and fleets. And we publish on September 21 and 22 at the SIA congress on AI for automobile and mobility (https://www.sia.fr/evenements/274-ia-pour-nouvelles-mobilites-2022?lng=en) a scientific paper showing, among other things, results obtained on a vehicle of the STELLANTIS group to pilot a predictive ACC with our cognitive AI of SafetyNex prudence assessment.
We arrive at the moment when all the efforts of the team are about to bear fruit, and we thank our partners, our customers, and even our competitors who have pushed us to excellence.
We have shown our DREAMOTOR1 demonstration vehicle to many companies (see http://dreamotor1.org/news) and we will do everything to bring with us on success podium all the SMEs and technology start-ups that participate in this ambitious project. Together, we are stronger.
I wish you a good reading of this newsletter.
Gerard, CEO of NEXYAD
