A note on self-driving cars and volumes of generated data from Barrons' Tiernan Ray:
Software analyst J. Derrick Wood offers his thoughts on A.I., with the premise that the “hundreds” of sensors and other chips in each vehicle will cause data “volumes to explode."
"This is already true,” writes Wood, "with Formula 1 cars which create 36TB of data per race, generated from >100 sensors that are distributed throughout the car, collecting data about the braking system, tire pressure, engine, calibration, temperature and much more.” He cites one research house, Datameer, stating that a self-driving car will generate 1 terabyte of data per hour.
Hortonworks, Cloudera Players in Future of Self-Driving Cars, Says Cowen
Hortonworks, Cloudera and Teradata are among names that could benefit from an "explosion" of data in connected vehicles in coming years, say analysts with Cowen & Co. in a 242-page think-piece on autonomous vehicles.
