Experts debate technical, commercial & regulatory challenges
The Cambridge Wireless Automotive and Transport conference, in association with MEPC and Rhode & Schwarz, will bring together some of the most influential minds in the automotive and wireless industries to explore the future of autonomous vehicles. The speakers will highlight the complex technical, commercial and regulatory challenges involved in mainstreaming autonomous vehicle technology.
Altran’s David Fidalgo will focus on the challenge of storage and post-processing required to develop autonomous features. His talk, ‘How cloud-based systems and machine-driven Big Data can contribute to the development of autonomous vehicles’, will look at the utilisation of the cloud and the ability to develop algorithms capable of managing data in real time. He will be joined by Paul Copping, Smart City Consultant, Digital Greenwich, Bob Cockshott, PNT Lead, Knowledge Transfer Network and Peter Lee, Partner, Taylor Vinters, with presentations spanning wireless connectivity, Big Data analytics, navigation and location.
“With Audi and Tesla unveiling their Powertrain and Autonomous technologies, the race to provide the best technical solutions and seize market share is forcing OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to optimise the speed and efficiency of technology development. The use of Cloud-based systems and the application of successful technologies from other industries are key differentiators that will enable them to reduce time to market,” says David Fidalgo, Senior Business Development Manager, Altran, ahead of the event at Silverstone Park on 2nd December.
The audience will also have a chance to hear Dr Paul Martin, Chief Technology Officer, Plextek Consulting, a founder member organisation of the Automotive Electronic Systems Innovation Network (AESIN), which was set up in 2012 to stimulate change in the automotive supply chain to make the UK more competitive in the global industry. He will present the concepts of V2X communication and the levels of security required.
Peter Lee, Taylor Vinters, will conclude the afternoon sessions by discussing legal challenges at the intersection of law and technology.
The event will culminate with an interactive Panel Session chaired by Tom Blackie, RealVNC.
The Automotive and Transport SIG event is championed by Andrew Ashby, Plextek Consulting, Tom Blackie, RealVNC, John Okas, Real Wireless and Nigel Wall, Climate Associates.
