Auto.AI USA 2020: Deep Driving Technologies & Computer Vision for Cognitive Vehicles

The third edition of the Auto.AI USA was a great success! More than 200 of the leading autonomous vehicle technical experts gathered in San Franciso this February to network, exchange knowledge and shape the future of the autonomous driving. Over 2 packed days, attendees saw innovative case studies, networking sessions, a start-up innovation lab as well as an Icebreaker and best practices on deep driving use cases.

Co-hosted with the OSS.5 USA the attendees also in discussions regarding the second key topic of autonomous driving: operational safety systems and functional safety and much, much more!

With keynotes on machine learning, computer vision, sensor fusion, perception, deployment scenarios, embedded computer vision, integration of human driver behavior, one thing became clear: AI is one of the key factors in achieving fully automated vehicles.

Shaping the future of Automated Driving in 2021

Auto.AI USA is coming back to San Francisco in 2021. Be part of the thought-provoking discussion and the fastest growing business community for autonomous vehicles.
