WHY IS IT SO HARD?

Complex interactions

“The first 90% of the

technology took only 10%

of the time. To finish the

last 10%, however, is

requiring 10x the initial

effort.”

Sacha Arnoud, Waymo

PARKING

PAIN POINT

Parking is one of the most important challenges for a traveller

• Parking pain point experienced on

12% of UK (19% in London) journeys

• 1 in 5 journeys experience difficulty

finding a parking space

SELF-DRIVING FEATURES

What do consumers want?

• Improves the parking

experience by allowing drivers

to be dropped off at a

convenient location

• Utilises parking spaces more

efficiently

• Avoids unnecessary

congestion and pollution

SELF-DRIVING FEATURES

What do consumers want?

When would you want a driver assistance feature to take over for you? When would you be willing to hand over control to the car?

FEATURE COSTS

How much cost are consumers willing to bear?

• Low speeds mean much lower risk

• A constrained environment means

reduced complexity of interactions

• The cost of the required sensor suite

and hardware platforms is lower

PROJECT

Paragraph Title

Paragraph text here. Paragraph text here. Paragraph text here.

• Create maps of car parks suitable for navigation and localisation at SAE 4

• Develop localisation algorithm(s) that best utilise the maps

• Demonstrate maps, localisation and navigation on a test vehicle

• Develop safety case and prepare for in-car-park trials

• Engage with stakeholders to evaluate perceptions around the technology

SAFETY CASE

EXPERIENCE

Paragraph Title

• What are parking pain points can be resolved by AVP?

• What are other likely benefits of AVP?

• What are the key barriers to AVP deployment and

uptake, from a social and behavioural point of view?

• What will be the likely impact of AVP, on the

environment, the economy, and the parking industry?
