This talk will go over megatrend on recent developments on self-driving car industry. It begins from a brief history of vehicle automation to five different levels of autonomy and their killer applications. The second part of the talk consists of perspectives on new automotive sensors (i.e., radar, camera, and LiDAR) and new algorithm development based on those sensors. The last part of the talk will be about personal journey on my startup, Phantom AI. The story is on why I started the startup and how I managed the first two years and finally how we are surviving.
