Hyundai is currently hiring an AI Control Systems Engineer to work at its technical center in Superior Township, Michigan. The role focuses on developing advanced software for future Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis models specifically designed for the North American market.
The engineering team aims to utilize machine learning, reinforcement learning, and model predictive control to enhance vehicle performance. The primary objective is to enable systems to estimate vehicle payload, trailer mass, and tire-road friction without the need for dedicated physical sensors.
By accurately assessing these variables, the company intends to create vehicles that automatically adjust powertrain, braking, and stability settings based on real-time conditions. This development is linked to projects described as intelligent towing assist and terrain adaptation.
Furthermore, the company is exploring the use of machine learning algorithms to predict component failures during heavy-duty towing or off-road driving. This could allow future vehicles to alert drivers to potential issues with axles, transmissions, or braking systems before failures occur.
