conference – Silicon Valley Mobility

ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle Tech Conference

Posted on September 13, 2023September 13, 2023 by SiliconValleyMobility

I look forward to my participation in the ADAS & AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY EXPO, California in Santa Clara on Sep 20-21, 2023.

There’s a lot to see – of course – and I hope you will be able to support me in at least one of my engagements:

Wed, Sep 20, I’ll be chairing the opening session “Strategies, innovations and requirements for the safe deployment of ADAS and autonomous technologies” with talks from experts at CEVT, ZF Group, Torc Robotics, Zenseact, Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi, Parasoft, Waymo
Thu, Sep 21, I’ll be giving my talk “Communication of automated vehicles with other road users”, which summarizes a report I wrote at SAE International not too long ago.

I hope to see you there…

Smart Driving Cars Podcast with Alain Kornhauser and Dick Mudge

Posted on March 29, 2022June 13, 2022 by SiliconValleyMobility

I had a great podcast discussion with Alain Kornhauser and Richard Mudge on automated driving, applications, use cases, and remaining challenges. Most of it was a serious discussion, and we also had a lot of fun taking some things a bit more lightheartedly.

We covered a lot of ground from a brief review of the front runners in the autonomous vehicles field, pilot programs, consumer needs, etc. And of course Alain Kornhauser being Alain Kornhauser, we also had to talk about things happening in Trenton, NJ and the new Mercedes-Benz AG Drive Pilot.

Thanks to Fred Fishkin for coordinating the podcast.

Silicon Valley and Detroit Need One Another, Dr. Sven Beiker, Samsung Forum

Posted on June 24, 2019February 17, 2020 by SiliconValleyMobility

Silicon Valley is often called “The New Detroit” and Detroit likes to brag that it has a long-standing history of startups with an entrepreneurial spirit that is still alive today. What’s more, basically all automotive corporations have now R&D locations in Silicon Valley and “in return” tech companies plan to manufacture their autonomous vehicles in Michigan. It seems there is a battle between Detroit and Silicon Valley as to who will win the race toward the future of the automobile. However, this race is much more about collaboration than it is about competition as no player can win just by itself. In this talk, Dr. Sven Beiker looks at the strengths that Detroit and Silicon Valley bring to the table when it comes to autonomous, connected, electric, and shared automobiles. He also discusses the necessary technology to create a world of sustainable, safe, and enjoyable mobility to suggest which ingredients from Detroit and Silicon Valley the automobile of the future will need.

The future of personal mobility – Sven Beiker at Seoul Motor Show Conference 2017

Posted on May 20, 2017February 17, 2020 by SiliconValleyMobility

The future of the automobile is autonomous, connected, electric, and shared – there doesn’t seem to be much debate about this. However, when and how those trends are going to shape up is subject to much discussion. This talk by Sven Beiker at the Seoul Motor Show in April 2017 takes a fresh look at those trends and what can be expected when.
