PRESENTATIONS
UBER CLOUD
Ebru Taylak, Marketing Manager
Ebru's background includes nearly a decade of experience in the computer aided engineering field, mainly focusing on automotive projects for major OEMs. She is also an entrepreneur. She holds a Master of Science degree from the George Washington University and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering from Istanbul Technical University.
Ebru will talk about automotive CAE simulations, which can be complex, compute intensive and heavily reliant on parallel computing. The advent of cloud computing has made access to compute resources fast, and on-demand. But what are the challenges of using the cloud for CAE? Join us as we explore this topic, look at case studies from the industry and learn how automotive engineers can benefit from the cloud to speed up their product development cycle.
APPLIED INTUITION
Roland Philippsen, Engineering Lead
Roland has been building autonomous robots for over 15 years. After an academic career, he shifted his focus to real-world impact, with three years at Google X and now a year as engineering lead at Applied.
Applied Intuition provides software infrastructure to safely develop, test, and deploy autonomous vehicles at scale. Roland will talk about building the company and product that incorporates a unique mix of automotive and software expertise, and discuss some of the remaining technical challenges for the tools and methods that we need to make self-driving cars a widespread reality.
IKA - INSTITUTE FOR AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERING
Laurent Kloeker, Researcher at RWTH Aachen University
Laurent is a research scientist in the Department of Automated Driving at ika in Germany. His research areas include V2X communication, environment modelling and the use of drones to safeguard automated vehicles.
Laurent will cover why scenario-based testing for the safety validation of highly automated vehicles is a promising approach that is being examined in research and industry. This approach heavily relies on data from real-world scenarios to derive the necessary scenario information for testing. Measurement data should be collected at a reasonable effort, contain naturalistic behavior of road users and include all data relevant for a description of the identified scenarios in sufficient quality. However, the current measurement methods fail to meet at least one of the requirements. Thus, Laurent Kloeker introduces a novel method to measure data from an aerial perspective for scenario-based validation fulfilling the mentioned requirements.
Starting at 6:30pm, food and drinks as always. There will be time for Q&A and a chance to try fka SV's driving simulator.
See you there,
John & Christian
