Day 1 - Tuesday, May 26, 2020
Editor’s Notes – Event Introduction
9:00am - 9:10am US Eastern Time
Tom Phillips, Digital Editor, Automotive IQ
9:10am - 9:45am US Eastern Time
Autonomous cars have received a reality check. Timescales for delivering a full, Level 5 vehicle have now been reconsidered and made more realistic, with delivery being split in two – ADAS can be expected soon, full autonomy less so. With this in mind, what’s the outlook for 2020? Is the focus just improving ADAS, or is full autonomy still progressing at speed? And where will self-driving vehicles make their impact first?
In this opening session, you will learn:
- What are the biggest challenges in autonomous driving?
- What are the global trends to be aware of?
- Just how important is the arrival of autonomous driving?
- How do you introduce autonomy in a way that consumers will accept?
Elpidoforos Arapantonis, Solution Architect, Volvo Car Corporation
Session Two – Why is LiDAR essential in order to reach autonomy?
10:00am - 10:45am US Eastern Time
Learn the value proposition of LiDAR as a key component in auto and mobility ADAS and AV applications. Obtain a glimpse into the anticipated roadmap and obstacles for the automotive industry, the Tier 1 and 2 suppliers, and system integrators for level 3-5 development. You will also become aware of the benefits that a LiDAR platform solution can provide.
This session includes:
This session includes:
- A breakdown of the necessity of LiDAR in Level 2+ to Level 5 autonomy
- Details of the industry roadmap of ADAS and AV development
- All the benefits of LiDAR platform solutions for Tier 1 and 2 suppliers
Pierre Olivier, Chief Technology Officer, LeddarTech
Session Three – How do you control a self-driving car?
11:00am - 11:45am US Eastern Time
With no need to control a car with a steering wheel, pedals, or gearshifter, the way a user interacts with a vehicle can change to suit. But this shift is already taking place, not just with Bluetooth door locks and keyless go, but increasingly via smartphone – particularly when it comes to ordering transportation on demand.
- How do you design user experience and user interaction for autonomy?
- What is the role that artificial intelligence will play?
- Voice, touch, heart beat and more – new ways that the car and human can be as one
Pierre Lefevre, Chief Technology Officer and Board Member, COAST Autonomous
12:00pm - 12:45pm US Eastern Time
Driving automation software for autonomous vehicles and advanced driver assistance systems of Level 2 or higher is now routinely validated by simulations. These simulations are part of a continuous process that makes it possible to progress smoothly from virtual simulation (MIL/SIL) toward hardware in the loop (HIL) validation.
In this session you will learn:
- How advanced simulation really is the key to unlocking the potential of self-driving vehicles in the safest possible environment
- Methodologies for incorporating simulations into your validation programs
- How it’s always safety first with Ansys Autonomy toolchain and partners along such complex processes

Emmanuel Follin, VRXPERIENCE Product Manager, Ansys
New Session Just Added! Session Five – What is the technology journey that needs to be taken to arrive at autonomous vehicles at scale?
1:00pm - 1:45pm US Eastern Time
As autonomous vehicle development continues under the new world conditions of COVID-19, developers have one eye firmly focused on getting the first true self-driving vehicles on the roads. The other eye is looking further ahead to the ultimate prize of mass deployment of autonomy. This session will explore the technology journey that needs to be taken to arrive at autonomous vehicles at scale.
In this session, we will discuss:
In this session, we will discuss:
- How to understand the challenges that need to be overcome to deploy autonomous vehicles at scale
- What are the requirements involved, including high performance computing, safety, sensor processing and software to deliver this aim
- How Arm is helping to address these requirements

Tom Phillips, Digital Editor, Automotive IQ
Session One – Keynote speaker: What are the key trends and challenges in autonomous vehicle safety?
9:10 - 9:45am US Eastern Time
Without safety there can be no autonomy. The challenge for all those involved in self-driving vehicles is ensuring that all aspects are safe, from concept development to design, V&V, and introduction on public roads. There have already been setbacks, so it’s important to understand the latest in standards that keep the industry on track.
- What is the current status of ISO 26262 and ISO 21448 (SOTIF) in their implementation?
- What are the biggest challenges from a safety point of view to ensure smooth adoption of autonomous technology for consumers?
Rami Debouk, Staff Researcher, General Motors Research and Development
10:00 - 10:45am US Eastern Time
Discover how Parasoft and Renovo work together to develop software that’s safe, secure, reliable, and deployed to operate advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Renovo offers the only commercially available edge-centric data management platform in the hyper-competitive ADAS market – a market worth $40B today (21.4% CAGR, $189B by 2026).
Renovo will share how it relies on Parasoft’s software testing tool suite to ensure those systems meet the stringent requirements of the automotive industry.
In this session, you will learn:
- How data is the new gold in the automotive industry
- How secure and reliable data management systems are vital to the collection, storage and accessibility of data
- How Parasoft tools are an important part of a software development toolchain focused on quality, security and reliability

11:00 - 11:45am US Eastern Time
Autonomous cars have the potential to dramatically improve road safety. However, perfecting the technology comes with risks – as exemplified by high-profile accidents involving advanced driving systems. So how do legislators and regulators balance the need to support technology that could save lives in the long term, without compromising short-term public safety? In this session, we will answer:
- With which laws and regulations do companies building autonomous vehicle technology need to be familiar?
- How are government agencies trying to ensure that testing takes place safely?
- What are the present privacy and cybersecurity requirements?
- With such nascent technology, how do governments ensure that regulations keep pace with development?
Steven Wernikoff, Partner and Co-Leader, Honigman LLP
Session Four – Is the future of autonomy really about going commercial?
12:00 - 12:45pm US Eastern Time
Developing self-driving vehicles isn’t easy, but routes that are repeatable and repetitive allow for the set of unknown hazardous situations to be minimized. Likewise, some of the most tedious jobs for human drivers are those repetitive highway routes. Is it here that autonomy has its best chance of success in the shortest possible timeframe?
- How commercial vehicles are well suited to autonomy
- Delivering efficiency and self-driving vehicles cutting times from order to arrival
- Case study of how autonomous technology is being applied to commercial routes
- Special considerations for autonomous vehicle safety
