In 1971, the BBC program Tomorrow's World demonstrated a "Cassette Navigation System." It used tapes with pre-recorded voice instructions for specific routes. Connected to the car's odometer, the device interpreted the length of electronic beeps on the tape to calculate distance, playing the next command only after the car traveled the correct mileage. If a driver missed a turn, the system failed completely as it could not reroute.

Autonomous navigation in EW-contested environments is a field where Ukraine is setting global trends. While the world has relied on GPS, we have developed alternative satellite-independent navigation methods. And today, this expertise is unique to the global defense market. This is the reason why companies like Farsight Vision attract investments. Learn more about their system in the video👇

This is the new Xiaomi YU7 electric SUV's smart driving system tested on real Beijing streets. Impressive, but a few glitches: 1) right-turn signal turns on randomly 2) wrongly thinks it's about to hit a truck 3) thinks a green left-turn light is red and stops 4) to get around a stopped car, it waits till the last minute to change lanes 5) slows too early before a turn With the truck incident, a guy sitting in the back explains that the system is more sensitive around large vehicles, pedestrians, and non-motorized vehicles (like bikes). Keep in mind, it's only marketed as an assisted driving system, not a fully autonomous driving system. Here's the original video on Weibo (Chinese only):
