SAE International Offers New Book Series on Automated Vehicle Safety

WARRENDALE, Pa., April 18, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SAE International announces a new book series from Juan R. Pimentel, that explores safety concepts and technologies related to automated vehicle safety.

Safety has been ranked as the number one concern for the acceptance and adoption of automated vehicles since safety has driven some of the most complex requirements in the development of self-driving vehicles. Recent fatal accidents involving self-driving vehicles have uncovered issues in the way some automated vehicle companies approach the design, testing, verification, and validation of their products.

The new SAE Automated Vehicle Safety series includes:

    --  Book 1 - Characterizing the Safety of Automated Vehicles


    --  Book 2 - Multi-Agent Safety


    --  Book 3 - Safety of the Intended Functionality


    --  Book 4 - The Role of ISO 26262
    --  Book 5 - The Safety of Controllers, Sensors, and Actuators

Each title contains an introductory content by the Editor, with 10 SAE technical papers specifically chosen to illuminate the specific safety topic of that book.
