PAVEcast: A conversation about autonomous vehicles
PAVEcast is the official podcast of Partners for Automated Vehicle Education, a nonprofit coalition working to raise the level of public knowledge about autonomous vehicle (self-driving car) technology. Join us for a conversation about the future of transportation. You can find us @PAVECampaign on social media or on the web at www.pavecampaign.org.
PAVEcast: A conversation about autonomous vehicles
PAVEcast: Robot Navigation: Satellites, Sensors, and Simulation
Humans use senses to navigate the world – through sight, smell, sound, taste, and touch, we explore our surroundings, and these senses work together to help us create a complete picture of our environment.
How does an autonomous vehicle create a picture of the world? Similar to a human, an AV uses its sensors to perceive its surroundings, and based on that data, it makes decisions. While each sensor serves an important function, the collective input – or sensor fusion – is what makes the system work safely.
In this PAVEcast, two AV CEOs will join us to explore the world of robot navigation. Aaron Nathan, CEO, CTO and Founder of Point One Navigation, and Dr. Anuja Sonalker, CEO and Founder of STEER, will explain how the pieces of the AV stack work together, create redundancies, and provide AVs with a full-picture view of the world.
