Abstract for team Lyft:
Does the new technology of autonomous cars raise your interest?
Are you looking at what's next when it comes to automotive and where do you want to work/learn next?
If you answered positively this event would bring you a lot of insights.
One of the biggest challenges in productionalizing and promoting mass adoption of self-driving cars is safety. There are deep deliberations around metrics that will be used to define safety criteria for a non-human that operates in the real world. Autonomous vehicles, apart from their reliance on critical hardware i.e. sensors - camera, RADAR and LIDAR to perceive the world around us, their reliance on software have increased significantly and as a result the complexity of code has also increased manifold. For an Autonomous Vehicle there are increased risks of code breakage or failures which can cause unforeseen safety situations on the road.
