Autonomous Vehicle Customer wants:Safety, Convenience, Comfort & Environment, but with higher expectations
Phases of Autonomous Drive
Driver in the Loop
Manual Control Vehicle moving into Automated Vehicle mode Driver IN the Loop Vehicle moving OUT
of AV mode
Full Autonomous Vehicle: When and How?

OEM timing for Full AV When:o OEMs have various timing for fully
autonomous vehicleso Issues to resolve : Regulations,
Infrastructure, Cyber Security
How:o Industry wide collaboration to resolve o Level 3 & 4 needed for transition to Full AV
