Roadly — Your new driving buddy

in #self-driving7 years ago

In a world where the likes of Elon Musk and Google are starting to develop and actively work on self-driving cars, who will be there to solve one of the main problems the market for self-driving cars have?

The answer is simple: Roadly.

Roadly is a mobile application, or a dedicated device which actively and automatically creates HD-Maps in real-time, whilst you are driving.

Many companies in the past have claimed that they had already developed and created prototype-cars which can already drive themselves. The truth is that all of these presentations and demonstrations took place on straight highways or very small areas.

Some manufacturers are working on cars which can create the mapping themselves, using the car’s sensor. However, this results in a dilemma.
Who will want to buy the self-driving car which does not function properly from the beginning?

Already having over 500,000 downloads, Roadly has gathered a database of more than 3.5 million different road signs. This number is constantly rising as the database is being updated regularly.

Incentives

But what is it that will attract people to Roadly? What incentives are there for people to download and use this app over any other, similar application?

I’m glad you asked! Roadly is more than just a recognition and HD-Mapping software. Roadly offers dashcam features, ADAS warnings and (soon) more!
Furthermore, the team behind Roadly is currently planning to move their project onto the blockchain. This means that the application will reward users with Roadly’s very own token, RDL as a form of appreciation for the user’s contribution to Roadly’s database.

The team is still playing around with ideas, such as which blockchain would be best to use or how to ensure data-validity. This is indeed a very early look at a potentially huge and market-defining project.
