NIST Workshop: Standards and Performance Metrics for On-Road Automated Vehicles

The U.S. National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) will host a virtual workshop on 5-8 September 2023 to further explore the development of standards and performance metrics for on-road automated vehicles. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together the Automated Vehichle (AV) community to update them on NIST’s recent work in the area, provide a forum to provide feedback, and set a path forward to ensure that NIST’s efforts in developing standards and performance metrics provide the greatest value to the community.

Keynote speakers and their topics include:

• Perception: Rajeev Thakur (Director, Ouster)

• Communications: Jim Misener (Global V2X Ecosystem Lead, Qualcomm)

• AI: Aleksander Madry (Director of the Center for Deployable Machine Learning, MIT)

• Cybersecurity: Anuja Sonalkar (CEO and co-founder of STEER)

• Infrastructure: Ed Straub (VP and Director of Automation Office at SAE)

The workshop builds on the results of a previous event held in March 2022. Download the report from the March 2022 workshop.
