Volvo Trucks North America is developing AI-based technology designed to help its autonomous vehicles predict human behaviour. The company says it has developed a system that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to analyze data from the sensors in self-driving cars and determine how they should behave when faced with different scenarios. Volvo recently collaborated with Dependable Highway Express to conduct a proof-of-concept test which used the system on one of its VNR 300 regional-haul trucks.
