The magic of data: From self-driving cars to accurate insurance rates | #pworld15
by Gabriel Pesek | Oct 15, 2015
As the second day of PentahoWorld 2015 got under way, the momentum from Day 1 evolved from sheer enthusiasm and energy to professional connections being made and services being introduced. And, of course, many attendees make use of Pentaho’s systems.
One such company is Intelligent Mechatronic Systems, Inc. (IMS), which operates with a focus on automotive integration of emergent technologies. Dr. Ben Miners, VP of Innovation for IMS, met with Dave Vellante and George Gilbert, cohosts of theCUBE from the SiliconANGLE Media team, to talk about some of the company’s latest developments in that area, how it is responding to the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), and what the company is looking forward to in the decade to come.
Innovation and understanding
“Innovation is our future,” said Miners, starting the discussion off on an upbeat note. In keeping with this statement, he continued on to cover dozens of ways in which IMS is keeping pace with new trends, from the various integrated data acquisition and analysis systems of its DriveSync framework through to understanding how drivers actually behave while in their vehicles.
This latter was one of the more exciting topics due to its implications, as it’s already coming into play to adjust insurance rates to lineup with an individual’s driving habits, rather than wide generalizations based on age and gender, for example.
Mapping the future
Other uses of IMS’ technologies are coming into play with the actual routes drivers take, with the development of algorithms to determine the safest route to a destination coming along quickly in the labs, according to Miners.
Self-driving cars was another high-interest point, though consideration of how to keep people comfortable with a feature that would reduce their perceived control is being kept a high priority as the public roll-out approaches.
“Embracing that human element is still extremely important,” Miners said.
