Video Description
How is technology going to change mobility in the future? How will our lives and our cities change as autonomous cars become a reality? In this talk, I will explain the vision that is being pursued by nuTonomy for a future in which safe, reliable, and affordable mobility is provided to all through a fleet of autonomous shared vehicles, augmenting and complementing other transportation options.
ICRA-X 2017
ICRA-X is an outreach activity to the general public in the region that hosts the IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society. It will feature lively presentations from distinguished experts on popular and cutting-edge topics in the field. ICRA-X is aimed at enlightening the greater community, especially the young generation.
Speaker
Emilio Frazzoli is a Professor of Dynamic Systems and Control at ETH Zurich, as well as co-founder and CTO of nuTonomy, a startup developing autonomous cars for mobility on demand systems. In acknowledgement of his work in robotics, fleet management, and autonomous systems, Prof. Frazzoli has received numerous major awards, including the the 2015 IEEE George S. Axelby Award and the 2017 IEEE Kiyo Tomiyasu Award. He has published more than 250 papers in the field of robotics, autonomous vehicles, and UAVs. A former full professor at MIT, he directed the research group that put the first autonomous vehicles on the road in Singapore.
