Welcome back to ITS Podcast, this is the 67th episode to start the new year of 2022.
In this episode the focus has been on Automotive Radar.
The book that Haluk has chosen to review a book about Radars, Radar Signal Processing for Autonomous Driving, written by Jonah Gamba
Our special guest in this episode is Professor Markus Gardill, from Brandenburg University of Technology. Dr. Jeffrey miller from university of Southern California had a remarkably interesting conversation with him, but before everything else, let us listen to Baris, who is giving us news in this episode, to see what has happened in CES2022 in Las Vegas. It seems like Intelligent transportation stole the spotlight at the event.

The CS@SC Camps moved into its 7th year in 2021. The camps were run remotely for the second year due to the pandemic, but summer 2021 was the largest summer ever, reaching over 1,500 K12 students. The camps have educated nearly 7,000 students since its inception in computer programming, robotics, and digital security. Students learn different topics based on their age, with elementary school students learning Scratch Jr. and Scratch, middle school students learning Web Development, and high schooler students learning Java and Python.

WAYMO DRIVERLESS CARS BEING TESTED IN SOCAL FOR RIDE-HAILING SERVICE. ARE THEY SAFE?
ABC 7 Eyewitness News online
2022-12-09
SANTA MONICA, Calif. (KABC) -- You might see unusual vehicles driving around the streets of Santa Monica and wonder, what is that? They are being tested by a company called Waymo, which plans to bring self-driving vehicles to our area as a ride-hailing service.
"We want to be that ride-sharing partner, whether to take you to the airport, entertainment trips, working or commuting," said Aman Nalavade of Waymo.
The service is already running in San Francisco and Phoenix. You request a vehicle like any other ride-hailing service using an app on your phone. But there is no driver.
"The driverless car shows up, so there's no one in the front seat. They get in the car, and they hit 'start ride.' The car opens based off the phone's Bluetooth, and then the car goes off and takes you from point A to point B," Nalavade said.
Experts believe this is the future.
"They are going to be vastly safer, they already are, but they are going to continue to be vastly safer than human driven vehicles are," said Jeffrey Miller, a professor of engineering at USC.
The question is: Will people feel comfortable getting in a vehicle with no one at the wheel? Experts say it will take time as people see other driverless vehicles on the road.

On Software-based Remote Vehicle Monitoring for Detection and Mapping of Slippery Road Sections
International Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems Research, SpringerEnriquez, D.J., Sean Jenson, Alexander Bautista, Paloma Field, Sun-il Kim, Muhammad Ali, Jeffrey Miller
The use of vehicular communications and networking technology has started to open up endless possibilities for applications development. These efforts include a wide rage of applications from road maintenance and traffic engineering at the transportation engineering level to applications designed for personal convenience and entertainment. In this paper, we describe our project on monitoring road conditions supported by the DOT-RITA program and the various agencies in Anchorage, Alaska.
