推动更改更安全，更可持续的旅程

他们说，一千英里的旅程从一步开始。

That adage never felt more appropriate than at this year's CES. It certainly felt like I walked a thousand miles to see everything worth seeing at the world's largest consumer electronics show.

我的同事Samuli对shift to sustainable technologyat CES 2023. For me, the highlight was the focus on electric cars, smart mobility, and software-defined vehicles. No doubt about it, the car is now tech, and this trend is redefining the whole automotive industry.

The software-defined car is going mainstream

The shift towards software-based technology is revolutionizing the car experience for drivers and passengers alike. Just like your smartphone and computer, a software-defined car can be updated and upgraded over the air to add new features and capabilities without having to replace expensive hardware components. This development is becoming a major driver of innovation and competitive differentiation in the automotive industry.

有了Vaisala Xweather，我们有一个明确的目标。我们希望帮助汽车创新者使每一段旅程更安全，更高效。在CES，我们展示了三个示例，说明了实时天气数据与可靠的预测如何改善驾驶员和乘客的安全性，舒适性和便利性。

支持更安全的高级驾驶员帮助系统

The race towards autonomous driving was on full display at CES. But there are still many challenges.

自动驾驶汽车（AV）被设计为安全操作的一组条件称为操作设计域（奇数）。奇数包括有关AV可以驾驶的道路类型的信息，可以安全操作的速度，可以安全导航的天气和照明条件以及许多其他因素。

VaisalaXweather is helping the automotive industry safely expand the ODD of autonomous vehicles by supplying accurate real-timeroad weather data。

道路天气是指可能影响道路上车辆安全和操作的各种天气条件，例如雨，雨夹雪和雪，以及其他因素，例如雾和大风。这些条件可能会对可见度，牵引力和车辆的整体稳定性产生重大影响。实际上，联邦高速公路管理局估计，美国每一次第五道路事故都是与天气有关的。¹

Road weather data helps reduce the risk of accidents by providing accurate real-time information about surface conditions beyond the vehicle's line of sight. Weather-aware vehicles can also use road weather forecasts to find safer, more efficient routes and reduce drive time by avoiding roads with poor driving conditions.

通过增加值的信息娱乐来改善驾驶员体验

想象一下，您的汽车是否可以向您展示您所在地区的空气质量。它会改变您的开车方式吗？您选择的路线？甚至您的目的地？

At CES, we showed how accurate local air quality data can enhance the driver experience and improve safety. In our example, a family is planning to go hiking in the mountains. They enter the destination into the car's navigation. Unfortunately, the map shows that air quality will be poor at the destination for the next 24 hours. The air quality forecast shows winds carrying smoke from a forest fire in a neighboring state into the region. The map shows that the air quality at the coast is excellent, so the family decides to go to the beach instead.

Vaisala Xweather空气质量指数数据由最先进的空气质量模型提供动力，该模型提供空气质量指数和个人污染物水平，包括NO，NO₂, O₃，co，所以₂，PM2.5和PM10。全球覆盖范围可提供实时视图，每小时更新，并提前72小时。

提高EV范围预测的准确性

根据最近的一项调查，在美国，几乎三分之二的电车所有者总是或经常对车辆的范围感到焦虑。²

Driving conservatively and turning down the heating or air conditioning extends the range. But other factors, such as terrain, traffic, and the weather, are outside the driver’s influence, which can lead to range anxiety.

Xweather Road Weather API提供了准确的与驾驶相关的天气数据，使车辆制造商能够在当前和预测的条件下更准确地计算EV范围。

在CES，我们展示了气象吸引系统功能如何填充车辆在车载传感器中的盲点。在我们的示例中，驾驶员在另一个城市举行了重要的会议。当他们早上出发时，天气很好，但是Xweather的预测预测了途中的冷锋和强烈的逆风发展。在使用此数据调整预期的EV范围之后，该汽车建议在旅途中停在快速电荷站，以确保有足够的费用到达目的地。

我们准备与您一起旅行

Vaisala Xweather Road Weather Data受到汽车行业的知名人士的信任：奥迪，宝马，博世，现代，梅赛德斯 - 奔驰，保时捷，兰德·麦克纳利，斯柯达，汤姆托姆和大众汽车。我们的高级预测模型建立在85年的天气专业知识以及20年以上在道路天气下进行开创性的工作。但这只是开始。

汽车行业正处于向软件定义的汽车转变的主要转变。这种转变将为汽车制造商，供应商和消费者带来许多新的挑战和机会。这是一个激动人心的时刻，参与汽车行业，我迫不及待地想看看未来的情况。
