Another day, another interview, this time, with none other than AEye President Blair LaCorte, as we talk all about the "biomimicry" magic that is AEye. What AEye are doing is a fusion of lidar and camera vision to merge 2D and 3D, and in so doing, to enable real-time focusing and only the things that matter, to essentially empower autonomous vehicles with a sort of "visual cortex" like the human brain. Otherwise, it would take at least 25 years to exceed human-powered vision.

Today: Japan is laying the foundation to prepare for Level 3+ autonomous vehicles in 2020 by letting drivers-not-driving to use their cell phones. Meanwhile, a new proposal for the various levels of autonomy -- currently SAE's five levels -- imagines a rather binary solution, i.e., a car either is or isn't autonomous. And, Waymo starts selling its adorably named "Laser Bear Honeycomb" lidar to third parties. ALSO: My full 19-minute review of the Tesla Model 3 with Enhanced Autopilot is now live!

| #199-Sven Kopacz, Keysight Technologies (formerly Agilent, formerly HP) | 28 Jan 2022 | 01:04:48 | |
Today's episode is the second installment in my two-part series on Keysight Technologies. Last time I was joined by Henrik Liebau where we discussed a bit of a teaser on Keysight's upcoming autonomous vehicle sensor testing suite in anticipation of their big reveal at CES 2022; today I'm joined by a colleague of Henrik's, Sven Kopacz, where we finally get to unpack and discuss in great detail everything about their incredible new Radar Scene Emulator (learn more and Keysight.com and here). The RSE is an incredible bit of kit: a technology- and vendor-agnostic platform that enables high quality testing of autonomous vehicle sensor tech including lidar and radar to enable a faster and more cost efficient way for technology suppliers and OEMs to test, validate, and get their AV tech on the roads. But beyond this big product announcement, Sven and I had a fantastically engaging, wildly meandering talk about all things AV -- and even EV -- as we discussed the challenges, promises, hopes, risks, and needs for the safer future we're all working towards. On a personal note, a huge thank you to Sven for making this symbolic episode #199 such a special one for me; it's hard to believe we're fast approaching the 4-year mark with this podcast next month with episode #200. If you're a fan, please be sure to drop me 5 stars on Apple Podcasts and help me reach 100 ratings. Thanks very much! | |||

| Ep 80: Car sharing to be fast-tracked by Hollywood; AV task force; AVs to be mandated by ADA | 05 Feb 2019 | 00:24:48 | |
Today, Episode 80! Can Hollywood bring about the cultural shift to wean people off of privately owned cars and into shared cars? Does a New Jersey autonomous vehicle "task force" represent the first glimmer of my proposed FAVA "Federal Autonomous Vehicle Administration?" And finally, I suggest that autonomous vehicles will eventually be mandated by the Americans with Disabilities Act.

| Ep 79, SPECIAL: I join two other attorneys on their podcast to discuss legal standards for AVs | 01 Feb 2019 | 00:48:16 | |
I was invited by TuckerEllis, LLP (@TuckerEllis) to join two of their attorneys on their podcast "Driverless" (@_Driverless), in which we deep dive into a broad discussion on various legal issues surrounding autonomous vehicles, including a fascinating focus on the legal standards to which autonomous cars should be held when things inevitably go wrong. | |||
| QUESTION: Should I split tomorrow's 45 minute episode into two parts? | 31 Jan 2019 | 00:01:16 | |
If you remember, I was invited to be a guest on the podcast of the law firm TuckerEllis LLP in which we discussed, above all, the standard of care to which autonomous cars should be held in an autonomous future. That episode ended up clocking in at a whopping 45 minutes in length, so I'm running a poll on Twitter to get a sense for whether you'd like me to release it as one large episode tomorrow (Friday, Feb 1) or to split it into two parts, with Part II airing next Tuesday (Feb 5).

| Ep 77: German AV consortium; I just did MIT's trolly paradox experiment; here's what Apple's up to | 25 Jan 2019 | 00:16:27 | |
Today: (1) We discuss the AV consortium being assembled amongst the German automakers to help share development costs (but really to cover their asses); (2) I did MIT's trolly paradox experiment and share my results with you; (3) Apple just slashed 200 jobs from their Project Titan autonomous car project, and I think I just figured out what they're up to.

| SEASON 3 PREMIERE, EP 75: CES 2019! | 18 Jan 2019 | 00:41:39 | |
The good folks over at HERE Technologies (Twitter; Facebook) invited me to join them in Las Vegas for CES 2019 and help moderate a few days of talks and conduct a few interviews. This is my account of CES 2019 generally; some exclusive interviews with various AV companies at CES including Innoviz CEO Omer Keilaf; and an insider look at what HERE Technologies are up to with their open and neutral platform of self-healing, realtime HD maps.

| #198-Henrik Liebau, Keysight Technologies (formerly Agilent, formerly HP) | 14 Dec 2021 | 00:57:59 | |
Keysight Technologies is arguably the leader in electronic design and testing equipment. Spun out of Agilent Technologies, itself spun out of HP -- yes, that HP -- and manufacturing everything from oscilloscopes to digital multimeters, from signal generators to AC and DC power sources; from bit error ratio testers to 5G OTA chambers, not to mention their exhaustive suite of testing and and monitoring software, Keysight provides all the necessary hardware and software testing for OEMs and tier 1 suppliers to develop their equipment reliably, quickly, affordably, and safely. Though they've dipped into the automotive space from many angles including 5G and V2X, battery and charging testing for EVs, and much more besides, their latest foray into the AVs specifically is perhaps their most ambitious to date, and Henrik joined me to tell me all about it... sort of. It turns out their next big thing -- something to do with rapid, high quality, technology agnostic testing -- is officially launching on Wednesday -- i.e., tomorrow -- so we weren't allowed to dive into a lot of detail just yet; so, consider this a bit of a teaser to whet your appetite. I've been promised a full rundown post-CES2022 for a follow-up episode with all sorts of juicy details, stories, and more. But what we did discuss -- for a solid one hour! -- was a fascinating look into the necessities of robust simulation testing; the current challenges facing the nascent AV industry as a whole, and of course, Keysight's role in helping to fast track things, all while zooming out and looking at the bigger picture of an AV future generally. It was a fantastic conversation with Henrik, and, as I write this, I realize it may be the longest episode yet! So I hope you're sitting comfortably -- at home or driving to work -- because Episode 198, Henrik Liebau, Solution Project Manager at Keysight Technologies... begins now. Make sure to check out Wednesday's big reveal at 10am PST by registering here to watch live: https://connectlp.keysight.com/WW-RSE-Launch-Webinar | |||
