Volvo's connected cars could make winter driving safer for everyone

With a ultimate investigate project, Volvo is anticipating to have pushing in severe continue a bit reduction dicey. The Swedish automaker is contrast a reserve complement which uses mobile interpretation networks to send icy highway conditions from car to vehicle. Once we strike a sharp spot, a place interpretation uploads to Volvo’s database as good as afterwards an present presentation is sent to alternative cars impending which area. As a outfit tells it, a in-car app will regulate a warning’s power formed upon your speed as good as a highway conditions. Meaning that, if you’re crawling up a widespread during 5MPH by a whiteout, your dashboard won’t light up in a approach that, say, someone’s would if they were you do 88MPH.

What’s more, a complement will broadcast a pavement-friction interpretation to upkeep crews, so some-more (or less) salt as good as snowplows can be deployed in a since area, creation a roads safer for everybody — not only Volvo owners. The commander module is singular to a little 50 vehicles for now, though a organisation promises which subsequent winter a fleet’ll grow “considerably.”
