Lansing-made Cadillacs to feature vehicle-to-vehicle technology

gm.com

The 2014 World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems in Detroit heard a keynote address on Sunday from General Motors CEO Mary Barra, in which she announced how GM plans to integrate automated driving technology into Cadillacs in a couple of years.What Barra described covers how the cars of the future will communicate with each other. We aren’t talking about cars that will drive themselves, at least not yet, but the idea is to get cars to share information with each other to improve safety and traffic efficiency.

Current State’s Scott Pohl talks with John Capp, Director of Electrical and Control Systems Research for GM.

Scott Pohl has maintained an on-call schedule reporting for WKAR following his retirement after 36 years on the air at the station.
