What is this workshop about?

The rapid evolution of driving assistance systems is reshaping transportation, yet significant challenges remain before full autonomy can be safely and widely deployed on public roads. This workshop brings together leading researchers and industry practitioners to examine the current state of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicle technologies, with a focus on real-world deployment challenges. Combining academic research with industry perspectives, the workshop will explore the technical, safety, and human-centred challenges that must be addressed to advance the next level of driving automation. Topics will span perception, localisation, cooperative sensing, human factors, and risk assessment, drawing on real-world experience from both research institutions and automotive industry partners. Through expert presentations and open discussion, attendees will gain insights into the latest developments in vehicle automation and connected transport systems, contributing to a broader understanding of the path toward safer and more reliable autonomous road systems.
