Aujourd’hui le JDN ou Journal Du Net publie l’information que nous vous proposions il y a quelques jours en avant première : Mov’eo consacre Nexyad PME Championne.
Le pôle de compétitivité dédié à l’automobile lance le programme « PME championne » pour accompagner la croissance des entreprises les plus prometteuses du secteur.
Adaccess et Nexyad sont les deux premières PME à avoir été choisies. La première, créée en 2013, a séduit Mov’eo avec eVa, une plateforme de mutualisation des données anonymisées générées par les véhicules connectés à destination de l’industrie automobile. « Les essais par roulage coûtent très cher donc cette solution de mutualisation permet à tous les acteurs internationaux de la R&D automobile d’accéder aux data que leurs partenaires et concurrents veulent partager. »
La start-up yvelinoise Nexyad a aussi tapé dans l’œil du pôle grâce à SafetyNex, une application mobile qui estime en temps réel le risque de conduite. Elle alerte vocalement le conducteur avant un danger pour qu’il puisse ralentir, avec la promesse d’une réduction de 20% du nombre d’accident, et enregistre les profils d’usages et de risque des utilisateurs. Lauréate du BMW Tech Date en 2016, Nexyad s’adresse aux constructeurs et aux équipementiers qui veulent fournir une navigation intelligente en première et/ou en seconde monte ainsi qu’aux assureurs automobiles qui souhaitent proposer des contrats personnalisés. « Des négociations avancées sont déjà en cours avec des assureurs et la sortie officielle est proche », assure Thierry Bapin.

New ADAS demos by VALEO
Valeo onboard demos area at Golden Lot was completely crowed during the four days of the Convention. But we were lucky happy few to test Valeo XtraVue and Valeo 360AEB Nearshield.
Valeo XtraVue is a system based on a set of connected cameras that eliminates visual obstacles. It takes two vehicles equipped with the system. The driver of the vehicle B, which follows the vehicle A, can see on its control screen what happens in front of the vehicle A by seeing through it.
Valeo 360AEB Nearshield (Autonomous Emergency Braking) is an innovative technology to protect nearby pedestrians when vehicles perform low-speed maneuvers. With a full 360 degrees system of cameras and ultrasonic sensors, this ADAS helps the driver to avoid accident due to blind spots around large vehicles such as SUV and pick-up trucks.

Complementing the vehicle’s HUD, embedded front-view and driver monitoring cameras trigger “smart alerts” in the form of lights and sounds when the driver is not paying attention to the road, if the vehicle strays from its lane, or if the vehicle is at risk of potentially hitting an object. For example, when a pedestrian or bicycle is present on the side of the road, an LED light projects onto the windshield within a 90-degree angle of the driver’s line of sight, giving a visual alert without the driver needing to turn his or her head.

SafetyNex is a nomadic real-time risk estimation system. The system has been described in detail in previous publications [1] and uses the key concept of « near-accident » or « quasi-accident », and is a result of 15 years of collaborative research with road safety experts and researchers.
The main competitive advantage of SafetyNex is that it allows, since the risk is estimated in real time,
to warn the driver (vocal alert), and thus to allow driver to avoid accident. Studies show that SafetyNex can reduce accident rate by 20% [2], which represents for insurers and fleet managers a consequent increase in margin [3].
But of course, SafetyNex also records usage and risk profiles. These profiles provide the behavior of the driver, or more precisely, his/her ability to regulate driving task consistently with danger. No need to record large volumes of data (accelerations, etc…) which in reality are not data (these are signals) for a possible back-office analysis, SafetyNex provides exactly the interesting data [4].
Below are examples of usage profiles and driver risk profiles.

New Nexyad paper :
Friday, november 4th, at Automotive Techdays in Lyon (Rhône-Alpes), Vision System announced its new technology Smart-Vision. This ADAS innovation is fully developed by the firm from Brignais in partnership with Nexyad.
Smart-Vision is a unique and complete rearview and surround view system replacing traditional mirrors with HD digital cameras and interior screens.This system informs the driver :
. When a vehicle is coming from the back 80 meters away
. When a vehicle, bicycle or pedestrian enters the blind spot area, each with a specific signal, regardless of the speed of the vehicle or the external environment.
. When they can safely change lane (for example, after overtaking).
Smart-Vision reduces power/fuel consumption significantly, enhances ergonomics and improves safety.
Both hardware and software are tailor-made by Vision Systems.

INTRODUCTION
Les Compagnies d’Assurance automobile Européennes et Américaines sont toutes actuellement en train de tester des systèmes de télématique, soit sur boîtiers, soit sur smartphones, afin d’étudier les possibilités apportées par le digital dans l’évolution de leur métier et de leurs modèles d’affaires. La digitalisation de l’économie n’épargne en effet pas le secteur de l’assurance qui voit arriver de nouveaux interlocuteurs comme les GAFAMs susceptibles de capter la valeur.
L’idée principale qui se dégage des essais est qu’il serait possible d’ajuster au mieux, sur-mesure en quelques sortes, les tarifs d’assurances en fonction du conducteur, et ce, en utilisant des systèmes de mesure et de scoring dans le cloud susceptibles de mesurer les usages et d’estimer des indicateurs corrélés au risque.
Dans le cadre du Mondial de l’Automobile à Paris 2016, Gérard Yahiaoui était interviewé le 3 octobre sur le plateau de la chaîne TV du Mondial. (English translation coming soon)

L’accident mortel en TESLA aurait peut-être pu être évité grâce à des modules logiciels de NEXYAD
par NEXYAD, août 2016
Les passions se déchaînent autour de la question des véhicules autonomes, ou semi-autonomes. Récemment, une personne a perdu la vie dans son véhicule TESLA alors qu’il était en mode auto-pilote.
NEXYAD a étudié la sécurité routière pendant une vingtaine d’année, et nous donnons quelques éléments de réflexion sur ce type d’accident.
Les chaînes de traitement de l’information des systèmes auto-pilote, driverless, etc… allant de la perception de l’environnement jusqu’à la prise de décision et à la gestion automatique des actionneurs, sont généralement très bien conçues, et mettent en œuvre des modules performants. Mais cela ne suffit pas à rendre nul le risque d’accident. En effet, pour traiter ce risque, il manque une chaîne parallèle (et indépendante) de « monitoring ».
C’est pour bien comprendre cette nécessité, il faut tout d’abord appréhender le niveau de complexité d’une scène routière vue par une caméra.
Accident fatalities in a TESLA car might have been avoided by using software modules of NEXYAD :
the time for monitoring circuit has come.
By NEXYAD
Processing circuit, informing auto-pilot systems, control, etc … from perception, data fusion, decision-making, and automatic control of actuators, are usually very well designed, and based on high-performance modules. But unfortunately, this is not enough to void the risk of accidents. Indeed, for the treatment of this risk, it lacks a parallel circuit (parallel and independent) called « monitoring » circuit.
To understand this need for a monitoring circuit, one must first understand the level of complexity of a road scene viewed from a camera.
The variability of road scenes is actually much more than what a normal person comes to imagine. Indeed, a color image, which has eight bits for each colors (then, 24-bit, as there are 3 colors) may encode 224 different color levels per pixel (more than 65,000 different possible values). HD video has more than 2 million pixels.
This means that the matrix of HD 8-bit color image may encode more than 65 0002 000 000 images !
This huge number is simply unimaginable.
