Fresh from his extended conference presentation, ‘Understanding self-driving vehicle safety’, Phil Koopman, associate professor at Pennsylvania’s Carnegie Mellon University, found time to further share his thoughts with AAVI in this exclusive interview filmed at ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle Technology Expo Europe 2025.
“You have to think bigger than the driver,” he explained. “If you want to be safe, you need to ask the ‘what if’ questions.”
Watch the video to hear Koopman’s fascinating insights and examples about why we need to approach autonomous safety from a different angle, and how we learn from observations to ensure safety problems don’t happen again.
