James Wu, CEO of DeepMap, Inc. shares how his company got off the ground WITHOUT access to millions of vehicles for testing How did DeepMap accomplish this? James explains how his company bootstrapped a simple and easily portable device.

Have you ever considered starting your own HD mapping company? HD mapping becomes increasingly important as autonomous vehicles become more prevalent. I speak with James Wu to discuss his early struggles in creating DeepMap Inc. James explores themes such as: ✅Raising funding ✅How to scale up HD mapping solutions ✅How to serve different companies in different locations ✅How to serve large fleets of vehicles ✅How to reduce the price of the maps #map #autonomousvehicles #automotiveindustry #mapping #automotive #HDmapping #ISO21434

A Story about a Computer Scientist Who Decides to be an Entrepreneur What happens when a computer scientist becomes an entrepreneur? Does that kind of calling suit someone with an analytical mind? Being the CEO of a company is a lion’s task at best. We hear from James Wu at DeepMap, Inc. to get his take on what it’s like to be a computer scientist AND entrepreneur. James lets us know that at the end of the day, he knew he was well-equipped to solve a pressing problem in the market. James reports, that sometimes you are simply called to the task. #map #autonomousvehicles #bigdata #mapping #automotive #HDmapping #ISO21434

We’ve seen the use of autonomous vehicles explode this year. Tesla, as you know, has specially made huge waves in this space.

According to James Wu, the High Definition Map space is actually severely underinvested. There are not many big players or serious investment in the HD map space. So what do you think? #map #autonomousvehicles #digital #mapping #automotive #HDmapping #ISO21434

My friend, James Wu will explain the benefits of High Definition Map for the automotive industry.

As you know, we have GDPR regulation in Europe since 2018. Most people, from time to time, don't want to share their data. They have privacy concerns and stuff. At the same time, I see the benefit of traffic information sharing. My friend James Wu will explain the privacy challenges of traffic information sharing So what do you think? #map #autonomousvehicles #digital #mapping #automotive #automotiveindustry #ISO21434

If we're talking about a shared environment where OEMs, fleet providers, autonomous vehicle software providers, autonomous driving software providers, and the consumers, all of them will be using and contributing to the HD map. So in order to do that, we need the digital structure which is standardized. My friend James Wu will explain about the efforts to standardize the HD map. So what do you think? #map #autonomousvehicles #digital #highdefinitionmap #automotive #automotiveindustry #ISO21434

We know that things are going to change when it comes to the automotive industry. There will be new kinds of objects to be recognized in the street, like an e-scooter that we didn't have five years ago. So the environment is changing. For that reason, we'll have to radicalize the way things work. And High Definition Mapping (DeepMap, Inc.) is one of the changes that will help the automotive industry grow. My friend, James Wu will explain more about DeepMap So what do you think? #map #autonomousvehicles #safety #security #automotive #automotiveindustry #cybersecurity #ISO21434

The autonomous vehicle will be depending on sensors like IMU, radar, lidar, camera, GPS, etc. If we implement High Definition Map to that, that would be a very big improvement in terms of accuracy and precision. My friend James Wu will explain how a vehicle will gathering the environmental data to update HD Map. So what do you think? #map #autonomousvehicles #safety #security #automotive #automotiveindustry #cybersecurity #ISO2143

We know the limitation of GPS and we definitely need more help to solve the lack of accuracy of GPS and any other sensors. My friend, James Wu, the CEO & also the co-founder of DeepMap, Inc. itself will share about how the DeepMap work. So what do you think? #map #sensors #autonomousvehicles #safety #security #automotive #automotiveindustry #ISO21434

As we know one of the problems that we see in the autonomous vehicle domain is the lack of accuracy and precision of GPS and map. We're depending on sensors like radar, lidar, and camera. My friend, James Wu will explain his idea of High Definition Map that gonna help to solve that problem. So what do you think? #map #autonomousvehicles #safety #security #automotive #automotiveindustry #cybersecurity #ISO21434

James Wu, CEO & Co-Founder of DeepMap joins Grayson Brulte on The Road To Autonomy Podcast to discuss mega-trends, high-precision maps, and DeepMap's privacy-first approach to HD Maps.In this episode, Grayson and James discuss HD mapping and how HD maps are enabling all SAE Levels of autonomy. The conversation starts with James discussing why he founded DeepMap with Mark Wheeler in 2016 and the opportunity they saw in the market to increase HD map efficiency.The self-driving car problem is really hard. Hardest of all is driving without a map. It is an unsolved problem today. - James Wu, CEO & Co-Founder, DeepMapWithout a highly accurate map that updates in real-time, self-driving cars do not have a prior understanding of the environment. Self-driving cars use HD maps to increase efficiency and safety.A 2019 Harvard Business School Case Study on DeepMap detailed the following:Self-driving is not just a technology challenge. It's also an economic challenge, an infrastructure challenge, a public safety challenge, and a marketing challenge. This challenge is shared amongst every organization working on self-driving technology. DeepMap is betting big on the trend towards a self-driving future. We firmly believe mapping is critical for increased safety and reliability, at an affordable cost.James Wu, CEO & Co-Founder, DeepMap as featured in the Harvard Business School Case Study: DeepMap: Charting the Road Ahead For Autonomous Vehicles (2019)It is not just Harvard Business School that is taking notice, Wall Street is also paying attention. Goldman Sachs invested in DeepMap as part of its Series B round in 2019. James speaks about what it is like to have Goldman Sachs as an investor.[Goldman Sachs] is able to offer us a broader of the global market for autonomy. They also provide support for strategic partners. - James Wu, CEO & Co-Founder, DeepMapThe investment in DeepMap was not Goldman Sachs' first investment in autonomy. In 2007, Goldman invested $100 million in Mobileye. Mobileye was later acquired by Intel for $15.3 billion in 2017.DeepMap's mapping service provides a solution for all levels of autonomy.We must get L2 + right if we are going to reach Level 4 or 5. - James Wu, CEO & Co-Founder, DeepMapHD Maps enhance the safety and reliability of Level 2 autonomy for drivers around the world. The conversation then naturally evolves into how to create an HD map and how the map updates in real-time.Bringing the conversation back to the business of mapping, Grayson asks James why he made the decision to focus on privacy by allowing DeepMap's customers to own the data generated by DeepMap's HD mapping service.Closing out the conversation, Grayson asks James what the future holds for DeepMap.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As we know one of the problems that we see in the autonomous vehicle domain is the lack of accuracy and precision of GPS and map. We're depending on sensors like radar, lidar, and camera. That's why the High Definition Maps will be a solution to solve that problem. In this episode of Matrickz Tech Talk, Our CEO Hasan Ibne Akram, PhD will be talking about the high definition maps in autonomous vehicles with James Wu, the CEO & Co-founder at DeepMap, Inc. https://www.matrickz.de FREE DOWNLOAD - THE WHITE PAPER https://lnkd.in/dn5i35v JOIN AUTOMOTIVE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING: https://lnkd.in/debNaRe Visit our CEO pages: https://lnkd.in/enezJpa https://lnkd.in/dYW9nu9 https://lnkd.in/dcug-Fa Take a peek at our activities: https://lnkd.in/dME_Y3C https://lnkd.in/dPrATbH https://lnkd.in/dTWug5T https://lnkd.in/dbD__bU Hear our Podcast: https://lnkd.in/dEZAdQD https://lnkd.in/ds5uGJd https://lnkd.in/d-95gFX #map #autonomousvehicles #mapping #highdefinitionmap #selfdrivingcars #automotiveindustry #ISO21434 #map #HDmapping #highdefinitionmap #autonomousvehicles #autonomous #vehicles

This week, we dig into the world of mapping as Mark Wheeler, Co-Founder & CTO of DeepMap, chats with host Grayson Brulte about the impact of HD maps on the evolution of autonomous vehicles.   Mark takes us on his career journey, from grad school at Carnegie Mellon University to his first job at Apple to the cryptic email that led to his groundbreaking mapping work at Leica to his reluctance to join “that search engine company,” Google. Mark also shares his personal history with his DeepMap co-founder and former Google desk mate, James Wu.   Grayson and Mark jump into why HD maps are the missing piece to solve full self-driving. Mark discusses the challenges that HD maps can solve by being able to “look around corners and look 10 seconds into the future." He explains the importance of being able to update maps on-the-go, in a matter of seconds, and how precise localization improves change detection to create a safer mode of transportation. He also disputes Tesla’s claim that a "map-based approach to deploying self-driving cars is not sustainable" by emphasizing the inevitability of HD maps and his energy for the task.   Mark shares some more information about DeepMap, detailing the company’s solutions and capabilities, early concepts, goals, the number of countries they’ve mapped, and the investors who have helped them grow and demonstrate confidence in the technology.   The conversation closes out with some industry insight from Mark as they discuss how mapping technologies are being incorporated into various mobility market segments as well as how the race to market between robo-taxis and SAE Level 2+ consumer vehicles will shape the future approach to mapping.   Learn more about DeepMap at www.deepmap.ai.   Subscribe to SAE Tomorrow Today or visit www.sae.org/podcasts to stay up to date on all the latest information from SAE.

Dr. James Wu Dr. James Wu is Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer at DeepMap. Prior to founding DeepMap, James built his career at Baidu, Apple, and Google. At Baidu, James served as Principal Architect for the self-driving team. At Google, James was a core member of Google Earth and Google Maps team. James earned his PhD in Computer Science from the University of Alabama and his BS in Computer Science from Tianjin University. About DeepMap DeepMap is accelerating safe autonomy by providing the world’s best autonomous mapping solutions. We deliver the technology necessary for self-driving vehicles to navigate in a complex and unpredictable environment. We address three important elements: precise high-definition mapping, ultra-accurate real-time localization, and the serving infrastructure to support massive global scaling. Without a human driver, self-driving cars will have to rely on maps with real-time localization to constantly update changes (such as road conditions, accidents, construction, and more). For cars to be able to maneuver autonomously, they must be aware of all conditions around them. DeepMap is solving this challenge by providing accurate and efficient prior knowledge of the world. Collectively, the founders and employees of DeepMap have built mapping technologies in use by tens of millions of people daily (including Google Maps and Apple Maps). The company’s technical advisory board includes former Google, Uber, and Apple visionaries Brian McClendon and Jaron Waldman, as well as Dr. Leonidas Guibas, a prominent Stanford University professor, and Herman Kaess, former CEO of Bosch Korea. In May 2020, DeepMap was named a “Cool Vendor in Autonomous Systems" by Gartner. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/autonomous-cars-with-marc-hoag/message
