Rapid AI advances now enable engineers to develop autonomous driving technology faster than ever, but the true frontier of autonomous driving is the ability to couple those advances with demonstrable and rigorous safety.
Increasingly, depth and rigor is achieved not through the biggest budgets nor the largest fleets, but by distilling the most precise insights from real-world testing and simulation that assure autonomous systems can handle rare and unusual scenarios, the kind that may only occur once in a lifetime of driving.
Autonomous truck maker Kodiak has met this challenge by adopting two tools, including one we created with the help of AI, that accelerate the pace, depth and precision of our safety engineering. They go beyond traditional approaches and deliver clear, compelling evidence of the Kodiak Driver’s safety.
