Quantum computers can control self-driving vehicles. But it can also connect the entire traffic system into one large entirety.
Ford is a leader in the technology of self-driving cars. And IBM is the leader in quantum computing. And the combination of quantum computers and self-driving cars might be fantastic. In self-driving cars, the key element is artificial intelligence, which requires a hard and complicated code. The artificial intelligence connects the data from multiple sensors and then controls engines and other things by following that data.
The problem with self-driving cars is that system must prepare and notice everything that happens around it. When the weather is bad the computer can upload the algorithms, which tells the system how to operate in certain conditions and that makes sure that the system can coordinate the speed and other things.
The case in self-driving cars if is like in every other robotics the robot itself doesn't need powerful computers. The robot can operate under the control of massive supercomputers if it uses a high-speed mobile data connection that is secured. The 5G-technology allows to remote control various robots by using the 5G-communication-based telemetry.
That system will tell the position and other data what is needed for a supercomputer. That supercomputer system supports the local computer. That local computer is in the car for sending the driving orders to the car. That drives by using automatic control. The parameters for driving can make by using the same technology that is used in Mars rovers. The test driver will drive the road and all data of that action is saved in the hard disk, and then the system will drive it to the supercomputer. Then it can upload that data to every other vehicle.
And artificial intelligence will need to make sure that the dangers on the road are noticed. And the system reacts to them. This is the thing that makes the making of programs for self-driving cars very complicated. The special situations are the thing, where is no need to react fast, and where the unexpected thing comes straight ahead surprisingly is the cases where artificial intelligence requires so-called fast reaction.
When the car is starting to slide the system must turn to the right side, and at the same time avoid the hit to people. In that case, artificial intelligence requires complicated algorithms. So the most work of the programming will go for the code, what is needed to solve special emergencies and other special situations.
But what if we could connect all traffic system and the vehicles, what is using the road under the one data handling system, what will control the driving of all vehicles. That system can make the distances in the rows that other cars can come in the traffic flow more flexible than what is possible today.
So the powerful network-based artificial intelligence controls the entirety, what travels in the road. The system will connect the data that is collecting from the vehicles and fixed sensors. And it will make the entire system operate as one entirety what is more flexible, economical, comfortable, and ecological.
The quantum computer could be the ultimate tool for controlling self-driving cars. The quantum computer can operate the complicated algorithms that artificial intelligence requires for making driving safe, economic, and smooth. And the fact is that if all vehicles on the road can connect under the control of one large control system, that thing can make driving safer and more flexible than it is today.
