SUMMARY:Self-Driving Vehicles
DESCRIPTION:Self-Driving Vehicles ***VIDEO AVAILABLE*** \nNew inroads bring driverless cars to market. Event summary available here. \n \nLOCATION & SCHEDULE:  \n  \nStanford University\n  \nCemex Auditorium\, \n655 Knight Way\, Stanford\, CA 94305-7298\n  \n\n   \nParking Information \nParking Structure VII\, 655 Knight Way off Campus Drive (located under Faculty Building West @ Knight Management Center)\n\n   \n5:30 pm – 6:15PM Pre-event Appearance: Google Self-Driving Car\n6:00 pm – 7:00PM Registration & Reception  \n\n 7:00 pm – 8:30PM Panel Discussion including Q&A Session\n \n  \n**ONLINE REGISTRATION IS CLOSED.  TICKETS AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR** \n  \n  \nFollow (@VLAB) on Twitter and Event Hashtag #VLABauto\n \n  \n   \n  \nAdvances in sensor technologies\, robotics\, and vehicle-to-vehicle communications are now converging to (finally) make driverless cars a reality.\n\n  \n \n  \nSales of driverless vehicles are expected to surpass 95.4 million by 2035\, representing 75% of all light-duty vehicle sales according to an August 2013 report by Navigant Research. Unfathomable? Think again!\n  \n \n  \nThis radical shift in transportation is driving the old\, established auto industry to a new frontier.  Opportunities abound for leveraging technology and innovation to get driverless cars to market.  These include connected cars\, cars initially used for slower speed driving\, networks of alternative fleets\, traditional automakers\, and even autonomous expertise from other industries.\n  \n   \n\n  \n   \n  \nWhen self-driving\, autonomous vehicles replace the ones we have today\, it will impact an existing ecosystem of stakeholders from automobile manufacturers to dealers\, servicers\, insurers and car-for-hire providers. Those who remain complacent in the face of such disruptive change may find themselves left behind.\n\n  \n\n\nWhen will today’s passenger vehicles become the dinosaurs of tomorrow? Why will this happening in the near future instead of in 10+ years?\n\n\nWhich technologies and customer needs have triggered the disruption in transportation? (Environment\, Congestion\, Safety\, Rising costs of fuel?)\n\n\nWhich business models are the most viable? What approach will garner the most funding to propel it forward?\n\n\nHow will companies generate the most demand and traction for their route-to-market?\n\n\n  \nJoin VLAB and our panelists on Thursday\, November 21st for a lively discussion on the reality and future potential for autonomous cars.\n\n  \n   \n  \nPANELISTS \n  \n   \n  \n\nThilo Koslowski\, Vice President & Automotive Practice Leader\, Gartner\nJosh Switkes\, Ph.D.\, Founder and CEO\, Peloton Technology Inc.\n\nCorey Clothier\, President and COO\, Induct Technologies USA\nMarteen Sierhuis\, Director\, Nissan Research Center – Silicon Valley\nLuca Delgrossi\, Director\, Driver Assistance & Chasis Systems NA\, Mercedes-Benz R&D North America  \nSven Strohband\, Partner and CTO\, Khosla Ventures\n\n  \n\n \n\nSpecial Appearance by Google Self-Driving Car\nTime: Thursday\, November 21st – 5:30-6:15PM\n\nPlease join us for the chance to speak with a Google operations driver and have an up close and personal opportunity to check out one of their self-driving cars equipped with video cameras\, radar sensors and a laser range finder to “see” other traffic.\n\n\n\nSpecial thanks to our sponsor\, Panasonic Automotive Systems Company of America\, for their support of this upcoming event.  Panasonic Automotive Systems is the premier provider of innovative\, environmentally responsible in-vehicle electrical systems and devices.   \n
