Regulatory landscape for the transition from Supervised to Unsupervised-Driving (SAE Level 4-5) to allow the deployment of higher levels of autonomy, 2021 Roadmap Report

The “Regulatory Roadmaps: Autonomous Driving, Automotive Cyber Security, V2X & AI” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Deployment of Level 3 automated driving is subject to regional regulatory approval.

This report analyses the regulatory landscape for the transition from Supervised to Unsupervised-Driving (SAE Level 4-5) to allow the deployment of higher levels of autonomy in Europe, USA, China, Japan and other markets. Since the future is also Secure and Connected, our analysis also provides a regulatory guide on Automotive Cyber Security and V2X (V2V-V2I).
