General Motors tests advanced driver assistance for 2028 Cadillac
Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 12 Oct, 14:38 · Archive
General Motors is testing advanced driver assistance systems that will eventually allow drivers to remove their hands and eyes from the road. The company plans to launch this technology on the 2028 Cadillac Escalade IQ electric vehicle.
At GM's Global Technical Center in Warren, Michigan, hundreds of volunteer drivers are testing the system in sophisticated simulators. The 360-degree immersive environments recreate real-world driving scenarios including hills, construction zones, rain and nearby traffic. The simulators measure drivers' eye movements, heart rate, sweating and other physiological reactions against countless driving tests, allowing GM to evaluate human responses as much as vehicle technology.
Current driver assistance features include automatic emergency braking, blind spot warnings, lane departure warnings, lane-centering assist, surround-view cameras and driver attention monitors. These features, collectively known as advanced driver assistance systems or ADAS, currently allow drivers to go 'hands-free' at certain times, particularly on highways. Automakers anticipate that future iterations will eventually advance enough for drivers to safely take their hands off the wheel and their eyes off the road entirely.
