Gaps in AV operationalization
• By having a trove of adverse weather data in an urban environment and to use it to validate the algorithms
  and position AV position as truly all-weather.
• Safety is paramount in any AV deployment. The ability to rigorously validate pedestrian/cyclist intention
  prediction algorithms for cluttered urban environment is key.
• Human-like driving characteristics to enhance ride comfort for AV Bus
