Dear Automotive Professional:
The Autonomous Passenger Vehicle has rapidly matured from a speculative concept to a reality that is quickly
appearing within our sightlines. The progression that we have seen has come as a result of the work of both
the traditional stakeholders and the emerging innovators. As the mainstay OEMs have been actively leveraging
resources in R&D and manufacturing, emerging tech hub groundbreakers such as Google, Tesla, and Uber have
proven they are capable of disrupting yet another established industry.
Autonomous Cars Silicon Valley 2016 takes IQPC’s Autonomous Technology Series into the backyard of
innovation. With the key stakeholders launching new R&D centers in the Palo Alto area and the new entrants to
the automotive market leveraging their current capabilities to advance autonomy efforts, a new automotive hub
has formed. Silicon Valley will be hosting as we tailor the next iteration of Autonomous Cars to discuss the core
components to successful business strategies as well as the biggest technical hurdles inhibiting progress.
You’ll find:
• The most up-to-date best practices in functional safety, cyber security, sensory range and
resolution, learning algorithms, radar interference, and processing power
• Insights into the most cutting edge techniques being used by colleagues and competitors
• Collaborative opportunities to further your autonomous initiatives
• Strategies to overcome some of your most significant challenges in this space
• Products and services you’ll need to implement the newest ideas
This event will bring together VP-level Strategists, Leading Engineers, Head R&D Stakeholders, Policy Makers,
Analysts, and Division Leaders from the traditional and emerging OEMs, Tier 1 Manufacturers, Government
Bodies, and Solution Providers. We create a forum for working toward the implementation of the fully
autonomous passenger vehicle. This conference will provide education, collaboration, business development,
networking, benchmarking, and brainstorming to accelerate your efforts
Autonomous Cars Silicon Valley 2016 will stretch your thinking, provide collaborative benchmarking
opportunities, and leave you with practical tools and ideas for action. After attending, we hope you will go back
with a plan that will allow you to enhance, upgrade, and develop your initiatives in autonomy.
Sincerely,
Trevor Sosvielle

3:00 WORKSHOP D: Scenario Virtualization for Autonomous Car Feature Testing
Once the driver no longer needs to control the car driving will quickly become more
monotonous than ever if the operator doesn’t have the very best in multitasking and
entertainment options available to them. A luxury provider like Bentley recognizes this as they
know their customers’ time is valuable. This session will look at major priorities in infotainment
and convenience in the car of tomorrow.
The autonomous car presents a whole new frontier when it comes to data access and usage. We
will surely see application usage skyrocket as drivers are no longer driving. These changes will lead
to a tricky legal landscape. This session will provide some clarity on changing data rules:
·· Current and expected changes to data privacy rules as they pertain to the automobile
·· Data that can and can not be collected from the autonomous car
Software platforms have become an increasingly critical part of the infrastructure for the
automobile of tomorrow. This is more true than ever in the case of the autonomous car. This
session will look explore critical testing priorities for developing a safe product:
·· Testing ECUs from a multitude of suppliers to ensure safe co-interaction
·· Tracing of requirements, development, and verification artifacts and activities
As the autonomous car becomes more and more enabled with new features, fail safes, and capabilities it’s always ideal to be able to simulate the scenarios they’re designed to handle as closely as
possible. This workshop will show you how you can test your vehicle’s “situational” capabilities from feeding an autonomous car code to see how It reacts or even putting projections and images in
front of its sensors.
·· Creating a representative test site for your vehicle
·· Implanting challenging situations into your test procedures
·· Designing false failure scenarios to ensure appropriate reactions
·· Integrating with base, lifestyle, and home improving the luxury experience
·· Novel applications of online services
·· Keeping pace with consumer demand and adapting to new trends
