商品描述

This book presents the most important milestones of the research on automated and autonomous driving in the United States, Japan and Europe throughout five decades (1950-2000). Drawing on sources from the automotive industry, electrical engineering, the robotics and AI-domain and military institutions, it retraces the transition from the guidance-cable approach to vehicle-based sensor and vision systems. Giving a detailed overview of the technical concepts, artefacts, research vehicles and robots, the book presents the transnational engineering efforts that started long before Silicon Valley entered the field. In addition, the book also uniquely details the role of the military in the domain of vehicle automation. This all ensures the book is of great interest to historians of technology, practitioners in engineering disciplines, scholars working in mobility studies, journalists, and political decision makers.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書介紹了美國、日本和歐洲在五十年（1950-2000）的自動和自主駕駛研究中的最重要里程碑。通過汽車行業、電氣工程、機器人和人工智能領域以及軍事機構的資料來源，本書追溯了從傳統的導引電纜方法到基於車輛的感測器和視覺系統的轉變。本書詳細介紹了技術概念、工程成果、研究車輛和機器人，展示了早在矽谷進入該領域之前就開始的跨國工程努力。此外，本書還獨特地詳細介紹了軍事在車輛自動化領域的角色。這使得本書對技術史學家、工程學科從業人員、從事流動性研究的學者、記者和政治決策者都具有很大的興趣。

作者簡介

Fabian Kröger is a cultural scientist and historian of technology, specialized in the field of mobility studies. His main research field is the cultural and technical history of the automobile. He published on the automobile in film, the imaginary of autonomous driving, the future of the automobile and the car as vision machine. His PhD-thesis focused on the relations between cultural images and scientific knowledge of car accidents in France and the United States. His articles had been published in German, English, French and Czech.

He was fellow of a project on autonomous driving funded by the Daimler and Benz Foundation. As assistant researcher at the media studies department of Paderborn University he supervised a journal issue on the gender dimension of autonomous driving. The imaginary of trains in cinema was another topic he explored for the French think-tank Forum Vie Mobiles in Paris. He is member of the French association P2M and of the Society of History of Technology in Germany. For seven years he was member of the Editorial board of Transfers - Interdisciplinary Journal of Mobility studies.

Funded by the University of Bundeswehr Munich, his current book is the first monograph on the research history of autonomous driving, covering five decades of research in the US, Japan and Europe. It gives insights into the long-term research efforts in the field of vehicle automation, mobile robots and artificial intelligence.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)

Fabian Kröger是一位文化科學家和技術歷史學家，專攻於流動性研究領域。他的主要研究領域是汽車的文化和技術歷史。他在電影中的汽車、自動駕駛的想像、汽車的未來以及汽車作為視覺機器方面發表了論文。他的博士論文專注於法國和美國汽車事故的文化形象和科學知識之間的關係。他的文章已經發表在德國、英國、法國和捷克等國的期刊上。

他曾經是由戴姆勒和賓士基金會資助的自動駕駛項目的研究員。作為帕德博恩大學媒體研究系的助理研究員，他監督了一期關於自動駕駛的性別維度的期刊。他還為法國智庫Forum Vie Mobiles在巴黎探討了電影中的火車形象。他是法國P2M協會和德國技術史學會的成員。在七年的時間裡，他是《Transfers - Interdisciplinary Journal of Mobility studies》的編輯委員會成員。

他目前的書籍由慕尼黑聯邦國防大學資助，是關於自動駕駛研究歷史的第一本專著，涵蓋了美國、日本和歐洲五十年的研究。它提供了關於車輛自動化、移動機器人和人工智能領域的長期研究成果。
