ReCal radio vision autonomous cars reduce insurance costs by 20 times

Steel missiles called cars, invisible on any radar systems, are a relic from the days of rotary phone land-lines, tape recorders and school canings. Governments can change the car industry in ways that agree with science.

To have perfect hands free cars, to commute with every day, and to reduce the roads to 99 less accidents, governments and automobile makers are going to get together, precise roadmaps and at least four types of sensors will have to be integrated into all cars.

Jules Vernes famously described the American military scientists who were upgrading cannons to flatten 71 ranks of soldiers, up from the meager 46 ranks, and the marvels of modern technology. Today, such weapons are everywhere hiding as cars and lorries, in a world threatened with resource deprivation, overpopulation and despotism.

Currently, the industry is stumbling down an unsafe and blind road, equipping cars with lidar, which doesn't use precise measurements. Cameras and AI can't see stationary cars and pedestrians well. It is a matter of course that cars should all have radar and knock sensors which halts cars that sense 3G phone contact and pedestrian collision.

So we are equipping cars with lidar, when, on the contrary, ReCal radios can transmit displacement vectors, velocity, inertia, chassis limits, sudden braking, abs status and wheel turns of nearby cars. Why use lidar?

It would make sense to have a $50 radio transmitter in every car as a sensor for the car computers, rather than a $200 lidar, because it would reduce collisions by 90%.

The nations can divide your automotive insurance 10, by investing in radar car safety. The insurance industry would be, in real politics, a powerful lobbying force in Brussels and the White House against road safety. What would they stand to gain by having 10 times less road accidents to charge you for?

A radio transmitter is like having an airbag as long as the radio signal... It's like having reversed magnets all around the car.

You would be able to travel a lot faster. Motorways would be faster, and so would country roads, because the accident rates would be divided by 10 or 50 times, from today's values.

We need a soundbyte. ReCal will do for a first shot: REmote CALibration.

Would you like a radar display on your dashboard, same as to a submarine radar?

One car can transmit the position of 50 cars around it to millimeter accuracy, so every car would only have to read incoming data from the nearest few cars to give you a map of hundreds of cars, all the way to the next traffic jam.

The precise road shape can, in the day of 512 gigabyte SD cards, be described to within an inch.

Every car can cheaply have a regional map of roads to near perfect accuracy, including motorways, steepness, roadworks, traffic lights, speed limits, rather than simple google maps, which are, for auto navigation, like chopping a tree with a bread knife.

When will governments realize that the billion dollar cost of implementing an automated road traffic ReCal system save billions of dollars in car accidents, delays, insurance and hospital costs?

I don't know what the future of car safety looks like, but this headlong dive into "AI and LIDAR" seems to be relatively low technology, and it will become obsolete by 2070, when citizens and their governments realize that they can travel in perfect safety, just by using anonymous $50 ReCal transmitters in their cars.

I want to know why they spend so much money on lidar?

Radio is easy to retrofit into all registered cars. The day when all car transmitters must be switched on, local cars themselves can alert police to people travelling in radio silence. The car radios can be anonymous and changed every day. You already have 3G in your car and can be identified by radio. Wouldn't it be worth having an anonymous radio in every car, and insurance costs divided by 10?

What are the real cost projections for ReCal rather than lidar in cars, it's a qualitative science, and it can be measured.

Tesla, GM, Daimler, Toyota, Tata, should be forced by the governments to team up. They do not stand to benefit from scratchless cars. Insurers will lose massively. The people, recessions, and national debts will stand to benefit. It's time to research dashboards with ReCal, and safe autonomous cars, not just lidar. Which organizations can develop ReCal for cars, and when? 2035 is a reasonable day. Please propose some figures and studies, engineers and scientists!

The auto industry is changing in big steps at the moment, and it's a good time for the IEEE and consumer organizations to give a realistic technology framework for hands free cars.
