We talk a lot about autonomous vehicles at Darwin; they’re a fascinating subject, after all. In our posts about autonomy levels and autonomous convoys, though, we haven’t addressed one of the most interesting autonomy questions: how do autonomous vehicles work?
This is a broad topic, so it makes sense to take it one step at a time. In today’s post, we’re going to talk about LiDAR sensors, and how self-driving cars use them to make sense of their surroundings.

We’ve touched on the subject of autonomous vehicle convoys a couple of times in previous articles. Convoying is a broad topic that’s brimming with possibility, though, so it’s worth taking a more in-depth look at it. In today’s post, we’re talking about the possibilities of autonomous vehicle convoys.

Car insurance became compulsory in the UK close to a century ago, but it’s undergone many changes since then. New laws have been introduced, old ones have been altered, and the way uninsured vehicles are found has changed. In the near future, we’re likely to see even more changes as autonomous vehicles take to our roads.
In this article, we’re taking a quick look at some of the ways vehicle insurance has changed over the years, and at how it’s changing today.

Aviva and Darwin have announced a milestone in their five-year strategic partnership with the registration of a passenger shuttle for use in autonomous vehicle trials. The shuttle, created by Navya, will be used to demonstrate the potential of self-driving cars and gather information about their operation.

Darwin Innovation Group’s ubiquitous communications technology makes it possible to switch seamlessly between 5G and satellite networks as required. In collaboration with Virgin Media O2, HISPASAT, Amazon Web Services (AWS), the UK Space Agency (UKSA) and the European Space Agency (ESA), Darwin is demonstrating this technology in a trial in Cornwall.
