Presentation

Safety and security key to increasing public perception of Autonomous-Vehicles.

The AV landscape is rapidly evolving, presenting new complexities that demand robust, safe, and secure software systems. We’ll explore the field of autonomous systems with a focus on application safety and security for all levels of autonomous algorithms with various types of sensors. How to extend AV system lifecycle through the creation of interconnected systems of systems. Including the critical aspects of data flow management, cloud data aggregation and the establishment of a comprehensive distributed secure system life cycle. These elements are essential for developing safe and secure AV environments that can adapt to the increasing demands of future AVs.
