A Special Interest Session on ‘Exploiting Computer Vision and GNSS Applications for ADAS and Digital Cartography’ at the 12th European ITS Congress in Strasbourg (19-22 June) brought together speakers to present different perspectives of highly automated driving. The topic of the session was ‘Satellite Technology applied to Mobility’.
By addressing the various aspects of moving towards highly automated driving (and the ultimate goal of autonomous driving), the panel presented a complete picture of what is involved in getting applications ready to emulate human behaviour in the complex, unpredictable and hazardous world of real-life driving. The different modules represented gave insights not only into enhanced environment perception through sensor fusion and quality of training data but also into product validation and issues of insurance and liability that complete a human driving scenario.
The presentations were followed by a lively panel discussion based on questions from the audience. Follow the links below to read the presentations:
