A Roadmap for Testing the Quality of Automated and Autonomous Vehicles

This book investigates the root cause of automated and autonomous vehicle collisions, to illuminate the possible cause of failure of driving assistant systems and prevent their reoccurrence.

The emergence of automated and autonomous vehicles has revolutionized the driving experience. It has also shifted sole responsibility for driving task away from the driver to the automated system, either by assisting or fully performing the task.
There are many benefits to automated and autonomous driving; however, to ensure the quality, reliability, and safety of intelligent vehicles due to their complexity, a comprehensive plan is necessary. Therefore, this book aimed to answer the following questions:
A) What is the role of standards in developing automated and autonomous vehicles and how do they contribute to the quality, reliability, and safety of
such vehicles?
B) What can we learn from the vulnerabilities and collision data of current AVs to make them safer and more reliable?
