About Workshop

Description:

Built-in driver assistance features will be integrated with connected vehicle technologies for safety and efficiency. Evolutionary process will continue toward higher level of automated driving. Experts from Europe, Americas, and Asia-Pacific will share progress of related projects and discuss technical and non-technical challenges for deployment. Scope of the discussion will include technologies, human factors, legal issues, and integrated applications of automated driving technologies, such as reduction of traffic injuries and next generation transportation services.

Japanese government initiated a research project on automated driving systems under Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP). Details of research plan will be unveiled during the workshop.
