AI as powerful tool to create a balance between safety, resilience, sustainability and inclusivity of CAD
CAD, I believe, is a means to an end. Research and Innovation on CAD, pilots, living labs and at the end of the day of course deployment of CAD technologies, should all contribute to high level and overarching targets, like those set in the EC Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy (2020), or more recently, Fit […]

Why are both ‘Competition’ and ‘Cooperation’ needed for CAD?
In March 2021, the world’s first SAE level 3 vehicle was launched in Japan. Also, several SAE level 2 vehicles equipped high-precision 3D maps, developed within the SIP-adus program, were launched into the market. I am delighted that we could contribute these outcomes as program director of SIP-adus. The Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program, called […]

The CCAM Partnership on the horizon
A huge milestone has come for the CAD topics in Europe. On 23 June, during the Research and Innovation days, we launched the Co-Programmed Partnership on the Connected, Cooperative and Automated Mobility (CCAM) in the Horizon Europe programme. Created earlier this year, the CCAM Association, who represents the innovation stakeholders in the Partnership, already gathers […]

Wanted: more realism and greater connectivity
As a carmaker, we are often asked how long people will have to wait for self-driving cars. However, despite the marketing-driven reports from industry newcomers leading us to believe that the age of autonomous Level 5 robotaxis is just around the corner, in reality we still have a considerable way to go before they are […]

Large-scale European research relies on shared knowledge
In the early years of large-scale collaborative research on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) we risked the work in the field to be significantly less interrelated than today. A tool like the ARCADE Knowledge Base ensures fundamental improvement by organising knowledge for a whole research field. As the ARCADE Knowledge Base centrally stores results from […]
