Safety, Testing and Self-Driving Cars

Any system where erroneous behaviour can lead to serious injury or a potential loss of life is classified as a safety critical system. This is true for self-driving or autonomous vehicles where a vehicle malfunction can lead to the injury or death of the driver, passengers or others outside the vehicle. The potential for injuryContinue reading “Safety, Testing and Self-Driving Cars”
