Overview

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are currently the fastest growing segment in automotive and one of the top 4 lines of focus for OEMs globally. To reduce the number of collisions and traffic incidents, vehicle manufacturers are looking to automate the driving process and eliminate human error.

The Institution's ADAS 2017: Advanced Driver Assistance Systems conference will provide attendees with an understanding of the developments and innovation taking place. This will enable attendees to reach level 5 autonomy and increase vehicle safety before autonomous vehicles.

Why attend ADAS 2017?

• Hear the cost-effective developments being made to accelerate beyond traditional ADAS and the timescales on the path to Level 5 autonomy
• Join key discussions with McLaren Automotive, Ford, Jaguar Land Rover, Euro NCAP, Royal Borough of Greenwich, HORIBA MIRA and many more
• Gain the latest research insights from Transport Systems Catapult as well as Universities of Leeds, Warwick and Oxford
• Receive an update on the impact of ADAS on safety assessments, standards and regulations, and edition two of ISO 26262 from HORIBA MIRA and Euro NCAP
• Network and engage with colleagues, peers and industry innovators from across the field of ADAS and autonomy
• Plus, join discussions on future impacts on business models, insurance responsibility during ADAS control, dealing with differing engineering within the vehicle and choosing between sensor technologies

Key programme highlights:

• McLaren Automotive and Jaguar Land Rover clarify the hype from reality and how industry are cost-effectively accelerating beyond traditional ADAS to level 5 autonomy
• Gain best practices for driver interaction and integrating ADAS with the driver from Jaguar Land Rover and University of Leeds
• Royal Borough of Greenwich discusses lessons learned from autonomous trials on UK roads
• Hear how Ford and University of Warwick are testing and validating ADAS and future autonomous systems
• Join the debate as Jaguar Land Rover, Transport Systems Catapult and Volvo Cars discuss choosing the right sensor and combining available systems into one vision

2017 Advisory Board:

• Patrick Sauer, Senior Engineer, R&D Advanced Technology, Toyota Motor Europe
• Tim Armitage, UK Autodrive Project Director, Arup
• Nicholas Solomon, Subject Matter Expert – State Estimation, Chassis Control Systems, Jaguar Land Rover
• David Ward, Head of Functional Safety, HORIBA MIRA
