AV ChallengesSystem complexity: autonomous vehicles interoperating with human drivers, variable infrastructure, stringent regulatory standards
Robust verification: considering different traffic scenarios, environments, road conditions
Standards: omit human error; need safety/liability standards
Enabling tech: Critical dependencies on advanced sensors, connectivity, compute, deep-learning AI, security
Road landmark and dynamic

o Dramatically enhanced safety (crashes rare, fewer fatalities)
o Less traffic congestion (real-time awareness of conditions)
o EV energy efficiency leads to lower emissions
o Lower cost transportation and insurance premiums (UBI)
o Mobility options: ownership vs. pay-per-use (on-demand)
o Improved in-vehicle experience: personalized services
o Reinventing not only the car — but the industry itself
The road ahead
