11. GHG 2 Summary
Huge opportunity for competitive advantage for OEMs
Huge opportunity for confusion for fleets
Fleets should create their own basket of technologies

20. 15-Point Safety Assessment
•Operational Design Domain: How and where the HAV is supposed to function and operate;
• Object and Event Detection and Response: Perception and response functionality of the
HAV system;
• Fall Back (Minimal Risk Condition): Response and robustness of the HAV upon system
failure;
• Validation Methods: Testing, validation, and verification of an HAV system;
• Registration and Certification: Registration and certification to NHTSA of an HAV system;
• Data Recording and Sharing: HAV system data recording for information sharing,
knowledge building and for crash reconstruction purposes;
• Post-Crash Behavior: Process for how an HAV should perform after a crash and how
automation functions can be restored;
• Privacy: Privacy considerations and protections for users;
• System Safety: Engineering safety practices to support reasonable system safety;
• Vehicle Cybersecurity: Approaches to guard against vehicle hacking risks;
• Human Machine Interface: Approaches for communicating information to the driver,
occupant and other road users;
• Crashworthiness: Protection of occupants in crash situations;
• Consumer Education and Training: Education and training requirements for users of HAVs;
• Ethical Considerations: How vehicles are programmed to address conflict dilemmas on the
road; and
• Federal, State and Local Laws: How vehicles are programmed to comply with all
applicable traffic laws.
21. Division of Federal and State Responsibility
Federal responsibilities include:
• Setting safety standards for new motor vehicles and motor vehicle
equipment;
• Enforcing compliance with the safety standards;
• Investigating and managing the recall and remedy of non-compliances
and safety-related motor vehicle defects on a nationwide basis;
• Communicating with and educating the public about motor vehicle
safety issues; and
• When necessary, issuing guidance to achieve national safety goals
State responsibilities include:
• Licensing (human) drivers and registering motor vehicles in their
jurisdictions;
• Enacting and enforcing traffic laws and regulations;
• Conducting safety inspections, when States choose to do so; and
• Regulating motor vehicle insurance and liability.

28. Cycle Disconnect
• Infrastructure takes a long time
• Vehicles take a bit less
• Consumer electronics take very little
• We’ve talked about the disconnect with consumer
electronics expectations and passenger cars for
decades
• We don’t have Apple CarPlay in a truck yet
• Pass cars may have V2V required in 2019
• And we expect automated trucks when?
31. Photo Parts Search
OEM CAD/CAE has capability to search “similar” parts
Tried searching for universal joint from iPhone photo
Results now are disappointing
50. License Plates—Change After 125 Years
What else? Labelling on door?
The rPlate houses a GPS, accelerometer, RF sensors, CAN bus access, storage and is built to withstand all weather and extreme conditions. The
rPlate's 6" x 12" display is the same size as a standard state license plate and its anti-reflective screen is legible in all weather conditions.
