Intelligent vehicle technology will bring benefits for all of us
Why ?
▶ 90% of current accidents are due to human error
▶ Improved energy efficiency and air quality
▶ Reduced congestion
▶ Greater productivity e.g. average UK driver spends 235 hours behind the wheel
▶ Independent mobility for all
▶ Huge new business opportunities for many sectors
But we need to ensure that vehicles will be safe, secure and robust

• UK is encouraging national use, so our experience informs international scene ( ISO, type approval etc.. )
Government has published a Code of Practice
• Important for public engagement
Real World Trials
![Page 6: The 3xD Simulator for Intelligent VehiclesGPS, ITS, 3G/4G and 802.11p 30 mile LiDAR scanned and graphically rendered driving route urban, intra-urban and motorway routes around Coventry](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071610/61493238080bfa626014747d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Trials are hugely valuable but…
▶ We need to minimise risk
▶ There is no repeatability, and limited control of the test conditions
▶ High cost & low efficiency

How many miles does it take to test an autonomous vehicle?

Trials are hugely valuable but…
We also need to bridge the gap between real vehicle demonstration and computer simulation, whilst still involving real people.
New methods are required…
(amongst a continuum of approaches)
▶ We need to minimise risk
▶ There is no repeatability, and limited control of the test conditions
▶ High cost & low efficiency

Summary
New technology and vehicles are coming sooner than we might think, bringing benefits for all of us.
But we need to ensure they are secure, safe and robust in complex real world environments To do this, we will need new infrastructure, real world trials, and new methods too…. WMG is developing a new and unique capability for virtual prototyping, to reduce R&D costs and accelerate commercialisation
