Join us on Thursday 22 October for a FREE ADVI Connect Webinar.

Driverless vehicles have the potential to transform personal mobility and are expected to provide an accessible and independent transport solution for everyone, regardless of ability or disability. To ensure this expectation is realised, it is important that the deficiencies in the current transport system that marginalises or precludes sectors of the population from accessing personal mobility are understood, so that vehicles and technology solutions are designed and manufactured to suit their daily lives. Hear from our expert panel who will discuss the importance of universal design and co-design of automated vehicles to maximise the anticipated benefits delivered to society.
