Session Description

Safety Assurance of Automated Vehicle is a required research area for introduction of automated driving. The session will focus on the results of the German PEGASUS project and on the international discussion on the research status. The elaborated and available methodologies need to be presented, discussed and harmonized. The goal is to compare and synchronize all solutions on a global scale. This offers the chance to leverage synergies for internationally acting stakeholders, but is also necessary in order to prepare international standards defining a reasonable state of the art.

Goals/Objectives/Outputs

Goals:

  • Dissemination of results from the German PEGASUS project
  • Present, Exchange and combine methodologies for safety assurance
  • Synchronization of approaches on a global scale
  • International harmonization

Outputs:

  • Identification of international progress being made in safety assurance
  • Comparison and discussion of requirements on safety of automated vehicles
  • Creation of an overview on national and international projects on safety assurance
  • Sharing of best practices on safety assurance and lessons learned
  • Fostering the interaction between participants and speakers from industry, universities and governmental bodies
  • Harmonization on international level
