Smart cars, another emerging field associated with IoT, is gaining momentum. Its progress is closely connected to the advancements made in machine learning in the last decade. If you have never heard about machine learning, you should put this book aside for a second and watch the TED talk The Rise of Artificial Intelligence through Deep Learning by Yoshua Bengio (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uawLjkSI7Mo). In a nutshell, machine learning makes it possible for computers to learn just like our brain does. It is another future technology that will be paired with IoT more and more to create smart, self-learning devices.
Machine learning is used in smart cars to develop many of its essential features:
- Detect the street, other cars, and people
- Understand signs and speed limits
- Identify dangerous situations and know how to solve them (for example, by...
