"Connecting the Autonomous World"
In the future, transportation will be autonomous. No doubt that the technology deployment can be accelerated, but it will require constant communication to networks around the AVs and to the cloud. Data exchange and standards are critical. We’ll discuss numerous areas that the connected ecosystem will need to collaborate on.
