Quotes from the report:
How do you convey to the user that although the car is taking care of a variety of different things, they must keep their eyes on the road? – Sajjad Khan, Vice President, Digital Vehicle & Mobility, Daimler
We’ve essentially built the truck of the future. We’re ahead of everyone by probably ten years – Trevor Milton, Chief Executive, Nikola Motor
The development of these stacks is very expensive. You want to implement them in a way where you can have flexible application– Artur Seidel, Vice President, Automotive Software, Americas, Elektrobit
To ensure that drivers are suitably prepared to resume control after a period of automated driving, significant driver monitoring will be required to ensure the driver is alive, awake, alert and attentive– Paul Zanelli, Director of Engineering and Technology, Transport Research Laboratory (TRL)
We at Valeo do not believe that the driver has to read something or understand a logo in order to make a manoeuvre. The car itself has to be a step forward – Guillaume Devauchelle, Valeo
For semi-autonomous features like traffic jam assist or highway pilot, the communication needs to be much more explicit, descriptive and obvious than it currently is – Chris Schreiner, Director of Syndicated Research, Strategy Analytics
