U.S. regulators proposed cyan lighting standards to signal driverless autonomous vehicles.
The update comes alongside major industry shifts, including GM's planned 2028 electronic overhaul and Rivian's acquisition of 3D simulation startup Third Dimension.
The development comes as automakers prepare new steps in the sector. General Motors announced plans to radically change the electronics of its vehicles, aiming to appear in 2028 with the Cadillac Escalade IQ, while offering the ability to drive on the highway without hands on the wheel. At the same time, Rivian acquired the British company Third Dimension, which uses artificial intelligence to turn images and videos into 3D worlds for testing.
Other moves are also being made in the transportation space. InDrive is partnering with Pony.ai and Nvidia to begin robo-taxis trials in Kazakhstan in 2027, while Google is upgrading its Gemini in-car system by adding a personal intelligence feature that draws on data from its connected services.
Meanwhile, the boards of Tesla and SpaceX have set up special committees to consider a merger between the two companies. Tesla has begun production of its humanoid robot Optimus in California and plans to start selling its own driverless vehicles before the end of the year, while Waymo is preparing a robo-taxi service in Madrid for 2027 and has already launched routes at the Las Vegas airport.
