    Bosch, the world’s biggest automotive supplier by revenue, will cut positions related to automated driving and car steering products in Germany

    Softening robo driving market as it is probably infeasible at the moment and unsustainable.

    Bosch were pioneers in mass produced EFI and DI systems and ECUs more generally so I think that their edge has probably been eroded by competition.

    One of the coolest things I’ve seen that is slowly being pushed to more vehicles is something called the iBooster which replaces the traditional vacuum brake booster with a small electric motor to provide the power in power brakes.
