Are BMW, Intel, And Mobileye The New Dream Team For Automated Driving?

BMW, Intel and Mobileye have announced today that they are joining forces to create what they hope will become an industry standard platform for safe automated driving. BMW plans to integrate Intel and Mobileye technologies into BMW’s “iNext” platform, the company’s target vehicle for fully automated (driverless) cars in 2021. What sets this announcement apart is the intention to provide a standard open platform, enabling other companies to leverage engineering and expertise from this team to produce their own driverless vehicles. Intel said that this project will require 100’s of people from the company, with a spend of 100’s of millions of dollars. The big question is whether other automakers might be willing to follow the lead of a strong competitor like BMW. If so, and that’s a very big if, these three companies could become a dream team that will drive many innovations needed for fully autonomous vehicles.
