Stantec GenerationAV™ Director Corey Clothier talks to Jerry Leekey and Joe Jones, founders of Icarus Ops, about how autonomous vehicle technology can benefit from aviation industry best practices. Autonomous vehicle (AV) technology can lead to tremendous safety gains and more efficient transportation. Yet there are considerable barriers to adoption, including communication protocols, infrastructure standards, and liability considerations. Over the past few decades, the civil aviation industry has resolved similar issues, leading to an impeccable safety record and high level of trust among passengers—even as passenger jets approach fully autonomous operation. In that way, aviation lights the path for autonomous vehicles.
