Sommario
The current panorama in Driver-Vehicle systems is rapidly evolving, as the path towards Autonomous vehicles is being paved. Many decisions are yet to be taken, and the legislative flux will play a significant role on the scientific needs that need to be accommodated. Is it easy to foresee that the next decade will be crucial for scientific research in this field, as scientints will be asked to provide prompt and reliable responses to the final scenario that will come into play.
The focus of his talk will be twofold: Firstly, Rafael will discuss working lines on Human-Machine Systems towards autonomous or semiautonomous driving.
Further, he will analyze the role of positioning for the development of Intelligent Vehicles.
Biografia
Rafael Toledo-Moreo received the M.S. degree in automation and electronics engineering from the Technical University of Cartagena (UPCT), Cartagena, Spain, in 2002, and the Ph.D. degree in computer science from the University of Murcia, Murcia, Spain, in 2006.
Between 2008 and 2010, he worked for one year in the Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chausses (currently IFSTTAR), Nantes, France, and he has also been a Guest Researcher in the University of Paris South XI, Orsay, France. He is currently an Associate Professor in the Department
of Electronics and Computer Technology, UPCT, the Deputy Director for International and Corporate Affairs of the School of Telecommunication Engineering, and the Head of the Telefonica Chair, UPCT. He has participated in almost 40 public and private research projects, being responsible of a global budget of more than €4 million. His main fields of interest include space electronics and intelligent transportation systems. He is the PI of the infrared instrument control unit of the Euclid mission, an m-class cosmological mission of European Space Agency.
Dr. Toledo-Moreo is currently an Associate Editor of the IEEE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS MAGAZINE and the Journal of Transportation Technologies. He has been a member of the International Program Committees of many international conferences, including the IEEE International Conference on System, Man, and Cybernetics and the IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium, among many others. He has received two international research awards.
