The Standards and Performance Metrics for On-Road Automated Vehicles Workshop
However, someone has to pay for this content. And that’s where advertising comes in. Most people consider ads a nuisance, but they do serve a useful function besides allowing media companies to stay afloat. They keep you aware of new products and services relevant to your industry. All ads in Quality Digest apply directly to products and services that most of our readers need. You won’t see automobile or health supplement ads.
(NIST: Gaithersburg, MD) — On-road automated vehicles (AVs) are expected to significantly influence key aspects of everyday life. However, these complex systems can pose a safety risk in the event of unexpected system performance. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) held the Standards and Performance Metrics for On-Road Autonomous Vehicles Workshop in March 2022 to solicit stakeholder feedback with respect to challenges and opportunities in developing standards and performance metrics for this complex interdisciplinary field. The output of the workshop, summarized at https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.IR.8442, identified key areas in which NIST could make a notable difference.
• Cybersecurity: Anuja Sonalkar (CEO and co-founder of STEER)
• Perception: Rajeev Thakur (director, Ouster)
• Communications: Jim Misener (global V2X ecosystem lead, Qualcomm)
Over the past year, NIST has started to perform research and explore performance metrics and standards in a number of those areas, including artificial intelligence (AI), communications, cybersecurity, perception, and systems interaction. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together the AV community to update it on NIST’s recent work in the area, provide a forum to provide feedback, and set a path forward to ensure that NIST’s efforts in developing standards and performance metrics provide the greatest value to the community.
