On Thursday a source revealed that the BMW is making arrangments to develop self-driving cars and is in talk with the famous Israeli collision detection software maker Mobileye and US chip producer Intel for the same. According to the source on Friday, the three organizations have planned to hold a joint meeting, with BMW Group Chief Executive Harald Krueger, Intel CEO Brian Krzanich and Mobileye Chairman and Chief Technology Officer Amnon Shashua itemizing the association. Automakers and innovation suppliers are striking new partnerships to popularize software based self-driving cars. the move is being seen as subsequent to moves by Silicon Valley firms like Google, Tesla and Apple into the same field.
As we know that Germany's BMW is the world's largest luxurious car manufacturer and Intel is the world's greatest PC chipmaker and both are hoping to explore new markets such as self-driving cars segment. On the other hand, Mobileye is the top supplier of camera-based sensor systems that is utilized as a part of advanced driver assistance tools. The technology is used for moving to another lane and to identify different autos or people and experts have praised its frameworks that hold 70 percent of the business sector of collision-detection systems, a key a key feature for autonomous driving.

Terms of the three-way deal are not yet known, nor is it clear how the agreement amongst Intel and Mobileye may influence the Israeli association's long-standing organization with French-Italian chipmaker STMicroelectronics, which makes Mobileye sensor systems. A representative for STMicroelectronics declined to remark. In May, Mobileye and STMicro said they had consented to extend a 12-year-old bond to build up a fifth era Mobileye framework, which they said will give completely self-ruling driving elements to cars that may hit the street around 2020.
These new frameworks will spin around a PC chip that controls nearly 20 sensors all through every vehicle, including the windshield and vehicle bumpers, Mobileye and STMicro said. As of late, Volkswagen Group and General Motors consented to utilize Mobileye frameworks in their future cars and Tesla Motors has resolved to keep utilizing Mobileye innovation as a part of its electric cars segment.
