About five years ago, I remember being part of a motor industry event where topics being discussed included the future of mobility, specifically revolving around connected cars and autonomous vehicles. One of the panellists in the autonomous vehicle discussion predicted that within 20 years we would all be transported around in self-driving cars and nothing short of a revolution was taking place in the transportation sector.
Today, however, such predictions are looking increasingly far-fetched. Despite automakers and tech companies pouring billions into autonomous vehicle technology, the challenges to achieving what is called Level 5 (full autonomy) remain tremendous. A spate of highly publicised (and fatal) accidents involving vehicles that were in auto pilot mode have not helped the situation, nor have infrastructure problems and misleading marketing communications that led some people to believe the car was able to operate without human input.
