From mechanical engineer to AI pioneer: Adaptive learning systems and camera-based driving analysis
Discover how a century-old family business transformed from mechanical engineering roots into a digital pioneer for driving schools. This video explores Veigel’s journey from inventing the first driving school technology in 1925 to introducing AI-powered adaptive learning systems that revolutionise driver education.
Learn why digitalisation is critical for driving schools today, how adaptive learning reduces failure rates, and what Vision Zero means for road safety. We’ll show you how tradition and innovation combine to create efficient, globally networked training for the next generation of drivers.
