Nissan shares exciting advances in vehicle technology.
Nissan’s mission to change the way cars are integrated into society. Their ProPILOT technology can make driving less stressful. The unveiling of their Invisible-to-Visible technology.
 This future-state technology will leverage sensored infrastructure and the “Metaverse” to enhance the driver’s experience behind the wheel.

“The technology taps into the cloud and enables you to see what you couldn’t see before -What was invisible – such as parking spots, traffic jams,  – you will actually see now."

Big Database Engineering
Distributed database is an earlier name. Now Bigdata base may be more appropriate. It has to be collected from number of sensors and number of people who communicate in an unstructured way. The database has to be organized so that it will generate value through analysis carried out centrally and analysis carried out individually by the associates of the organization.

Industrial Imager pinpoints compressed air leaks in minutes
30 July, 2019

Compressed air systems can lose a significant amount of air through leakage. - the average compressed air system loses 30% of its air through leaks. Locating those leaks has been a time-consuming and difficult process. Fluke says its ii900 Sonic Industrial Imager enables maintenance teams to quickly, and visually, pinpoint the location of compressed air, gas, and vacuum system leaks even during peak production periods. Leaks can be detected in a matter of minutes.

A metal sheet stamping simulation promises improved car part production
Kanazawa University  researchers came up with a novel way of reducing the twisting of metal sheets by optimizing the shape of the blank shape while also minimizing tearing and wrinkling of the metal sheet. They also simulated how much force to use to clamp the metal sheet in place in the so-called "blank holder" and how it should be varied during the punching process to achieve the best results.
