We have a new podcast out, which you may have already heard the trailer for. It's called TECHnically Possible and it's all about where our current and emerging technologies might just end up, and what that actually means for us humans...including the good, the bad and the strange. In this first episode we talk autonomous vehicles with Lars Klint and industry expert Jillian Kaplan. They take a look at how we can make smart cars safer, and whether speeding up reaction times and having them ‘talk’ to each other with 5G and edge computing might be the answer. You'll get to dive into the current state of autonomous vehicles, and then hear what our hands-free future might look like! Subscribe at TECHnically Possible!
