ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle Engineering - November 2023 - 2

Contents
4 Editorial
Automated driving's continuing mission: One step forward...
6 The Navigator
Are robotaxis ready for prime time?
8 AV Simulation Faces a Long and
Winding Road
There are many divergent-but-related ideas about how best to leverage
simulation to 'teach' and test automated vehicles. Global AV simulation
experts continue to attack the technology's persistent obstacles.
15 DOT's 'Framework' for AV Development
The U.S. Department of Transportation establishes structure to advance
collaborative AV testing.
20 The Chaos of Automotive Data Privacy
Regulators and other privacy advocates believe vehicle-related data
collection and brokering is in overdrive. One expert believes a day of
reckoning is coming.
24 Simulation Developer rFpro Mimics
Vehicle Sensors
'Ray-tracing' software enables the training of ADAS systems entirely by simulation.
Eight of the top 10 OEMs are using it.
27 New Tools & Technologies
In terms of both programming automated-driving
systems (ADS) and testing and
validating their performance, it's widely
believed that increasingly-sophisticated
simulation tools will assume more of the
AV-development task. The cover image is a
