Privacy Protection for Autonomous Vehicles
Speaker: Kok-Seng Wong, PhD, Associate Professor, College of Engineering and Computer Science
Topic:
In the awakening of cutting-edge technology, companies such as Apple, Waymo, and Tesla are racing to launch the industry’s first fully autonomous car. Besides the technical challenges (safeness and infrastructure), privacy and data protection have attracted the autonomous vehicle industry and researchers’ attention. Although we are aware of how much data autonomous vehicles will generate per day, there is a lack of knowledge of how the collected data will be used. In this talk, I will discuss some privacy concerns in autonomous vehicle systems and possible solutions to protect sensitive information such as location, visual data, etc.
