When is a Car "Safe Enough?" w/ Philip Koopman

When is a car "safe enough"? Turns out it's not such a simple answer. From a lack of software oversight to self-certification issues to more recalls (from every company) than you could imagine, building cars is challenging, especially as ADAS systems get more common and complicated. Phil Koopman is an Associate Professor at Carnegie Mellon University in the Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering. In the car realm, he is the writer of Safe Autonomy blog, covering self-driving technology.

 

His new book, "How Safe is Safe Enough? Measuring and Predicting Autonomous Vehicle Safety", analyzes the alleged safety improvements that autonomous cars will provide.
