Computers have modified cars at least as much as they have modified our daily lives, but a new partnership between Google and Volkswagen could transform transportation further still: the 2 are collaborating on a way to apply quantum computing to resolution some fundamental car-related issues, together with optimizing traffic flow, creating machine learning more intelligent, and serving to crack the problem of building new battery technologies that can extend range and improve charging rates.
Of course, quantum computing isn’t a magic nostrum which will deliver all of the higher than just by flicking a switch, but it will calculate rather more efficiently than a tradition computer, that is great for managing high volume work like AI and running simulations. Roadshow reports that the collaborative effort is hoping to add a variety of elements into the mix in figuring out traffic optimization, including the availability of eV charging spots and parking spaces, as an example.
Computer power could be a limiting factor in both AI, that is crucial to the future of autonomous driving, and basic and applied materials science, that are essential to developing longer-lasting eV batteries.
This partnership is just a study for currently, but it could become something more shortly, particularly as automakers focus more on the broader issue of transportation and moving around cities, rather than of focusing little more narrowly on cars and vehicles themselves.
