 This is Ross Miller with The Verge. It's day two at CES and we're here at Delphi's car park tent. Now Delphi is known for its evolution in self-driving cars. Every year there's something a little bit new to show. So we're going to be here checking it out and of course that means we're just going to go hop in an Audi and let it drive us around Vegas for a little bit. Last year Delphi outfitted an Audi SEV with autonomous technology and took it cross country from San Francisco to New York. This year the company is showing off what it's calling V2E or Vehicle to Everything. Basically it's a combination of hardware and software that lets the car talk directly with vehicles, special traffic lights, and even with pedestrians, assuming they have the right chips in their smartphones at least. All that data is augmented by a series of cameras and radars and other sensors and things that create more situational awareness, which is really the goal of all self-driving technology. And the end result is... actually it's rather boring. Now that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Our demo drive around Vegas roads went rather smoothly with the car self-steering, self-accelerating, and even with the camera. It was self-steering, self-accelerating, and self-braking as it followed the flow of traffic and maintained a safe distance. In fact the most exciting moment happened when our video crew chase car just happened to cut in front of us with one of our camera guys hanging out the side of the car. If he falls out of the van will his car know to stop? He doesn't have a VTX enabled phone. He does not have a VTX enabled phone. So yeah, it can be a bit dull in practice. But when the end result is not hitting things, dull is probably good. Delphi's vehicle-to-vehicle system will be first integrated into the 2017 Cadillac CTS.
