🚨✨ NEW PAPER ALERT (for #selfdriving ecosystem)
Excited to announce our paper (& very close to me): "ODD and Behaviour Based Scenario Generation for Automated Driving Systems" is now available on @IEEEAccess. This is a fruit of true collaboration between @wmgwarwick & @densoeurope. Here we present an approach to automate scenario generation from a formal ODD definition & behaviour definition (based on their dependency) for scenario-based testing and #SOTIF.

Paper Open Access 🔗 https://t.co/VavjaEwC8D

Those in the #AutomatedDriving ecosystem who know me, will know that ODD as a topic is something I am very passionate about, so this is just another manifestation of it. Lots more to come in the coming weeks...

[Waymo @Waymo]

We published two new papers: one that compares the Waymo Driver’s crash rates to human drivers’ over 7M+ rider-only miles across Phoenix, San Francisco, and Los Angeles; and another that develops clear human crash benchmarks to enable such comparison. https://t.co/yiq7vt1lb8

Demissionair @minpres Rutte maakt net in Phoenix een rit in zelfrijdende taxi en wij filmden hem. Hij is op handelsmissie in 'Silicon Desert' en bezoekt Nederlandse halfgeleider/chip-bedrijven. Die hopen te profiteren van Bidens 50+ miljard dollar aan subsidies voor de sector.

If you want to know more about the experiences of 20 European CCAM experts riding with these vehicles in SF this summer, check out this article on the @Europe_CAD website: https://t.co/3oHaRe2zle

[Theo Peters @NLinSF]

Prime Minister Rutte @minpres took a ride in a @Waymo self-driving car on the streets of Phoenix, making him the first world leader to do so.

During the ride learn more about the development and safety of autonomous vehicles in the Unites States.

[Siddartha Khastgir @siddkhastgir]

Join me & my fantastic panelists for the @paveeurope panel on "Testing Autonomous Solutions". The #selfdriving vehicle industry is at a pivotal juncture now. Safety has never been more important & a scalable testing programme is at the heart of it.

This goes to show that we can multitask😉 Moderating and presenting at the IRF annual conference while attending the @CCAM_EU multicluster meeting. The session was on Building Blocks of CCAM: The Dual Role of Physical and Digital Infrastructure https://t.co/rjsrM47mNt

The @Europe_CAD newsletter is out. It has a link to the CAD VIP Blog I wrote on our experiences with riding with @Cruise and @waymo this summer in SF. https://t.co/sR9ub6LI8E

[Kirsten Korosec @kirstenkorosec]

CA DMV suspends Cruise's AV permits (everything except having a human safety operator behind the wheel), effective immediately. Story is developing but here's what I have so far: https://t.co/N1PzHUsDex

@TerezaCizkova @LivingLAPT @PowerHUBcz My Czech is not very good, but it seems that the information provided stated that they were running till 19.00 with 15 minute intervals, I was there around 18.30…
Looks like they will be there next week though. https://t.co/G70XAqM2KO

[Tom Alkim @cooperativeguy]

Well, that’s a pity. I happen to be in a Prague and noticed that there’s supposed to be an @aurrigo automated shuttle driving at the Exhibition Grounds until 19.00. But it’s nowhere to be seen, what did I miss (besides the shuttle)? @LivingLAPT @PowerHUBcz @TerezaCizkova

Looks like I will make an appearance on national TV to discuss self driving vehicles. Tonight at 22.07 on NPO1

[Café Kockelmann @CafeKockelmann]

Nooit meer je handen aan het stuur. Al sinds jaar en dag wordt gefantaseerd over zelfrijdende auto’s, maar nu er in San Francisco dan eindelijk robottaxi’s rondrijden, blijkt dat er toch nog wat hobbels op de weg zijn. Hoe lang duurt het nog voordat zelfrijdende auto’s zonder problemen de weg op kunnen? We bespreken het met @cooperativeguy en @carlovdweijer. #Op1 #WNL
