The panel addressed a particularly promising application of the IoT: self-driving vehicles (SDV). To an increasing extent, SVD are no longer the subject of science fiction. Autonomous vehicles are not just tested in Silicon Valley, late-stage testing is also conducted in Europe. For instance, demonstrations of various aspects of autonomous driving technology have taken place in Turin, Italy, and the transition from the trial phase to the commercial application of the technology can be expected before too long. The panelists were Ilja Rudyk (European Patent Office), Giovanni Romano (Telecom Italia, 3GPP), Javier Gozálvez Sempere (University Miguel Hernández de Elche) and Lorenzo Casaccia (Qualcomm). The presentation from TIM was focused on mobile networks in providing support to self-driving vehicles and on the important roles European-funded projects play. 5G Carmen was indicated as an important example of how to manage cross-country cross-operator scenarios.
