Forbes looked at the push for self-driving golf cars.
Citing a Harvard Business Review line that “The future of electric vehicles is golf carts, not Tesla” and noting an Allied Market Research study that predicted the global golf cart market will hit $1.79 billion by 2028, growing at a 3.9% CAGR between 2021 and 2028, Forbes took a bullish tone about the industry.
And self-driving cars will be part of that, Forbes reckons.
The report looked at a Honda golf-car-type “micromobility device” that the company sees as having a role in future urban environments. It also broke down the problems and challenges the nascent industry faces both in full-sized cars and golf car-style vehicles. These include panoptic driving perception systems, traffic sign classification, traffic light recognition, road lane detection and license plate recognition.
