Toward a Sustainable Future for Mobility and EV Architectures Part 2 of 3 with Ralf Klaedtke

Our Connected World | TE Connectivity

Ralf Klaedtke, The Chief Technical Officer for Transportation Solutions at TE Connectivity, continued his discussion on autonomous driving with Connected World’s Tyler Kern. In this second episode, the conversation shifted to the human side of autonomous driving and people's trust issues with AI.

And, as with Klaedtke and Kern’s earlier conversation, safety is the leading concern for people when it comes to adopting this important technology. Klaedtke saw adoption occurring first in cities with robo taxis and driver-less buses before moving out into less populated areas. Ironing out safety issues and cost aspects are still two challenges that need to be addressed before expecting this type of autonomy to be reached.
