The panel is a collaborative discussion between the co-located Auto.AI Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Autonomous Vechile R&D and the OSS.5 USA Conference. The focus of the discussion will be the impact of AI on functional safety, the challenges and trends and how both areas need to be combined in the future to create safe autonomous vehicles.
Dr. Jürgen Bohn received his Master's degree in Computer Science from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany and his PhD in Pervasive Computing from ETH Zurich, Switzerland.
From 2006 to 2014, Dr. Bohn led the RFID group at Von Braun Labs in Campinas/Sao Paulo, Brazil, where he developed radio-frequency-based identification solutions for logistics, electronic vehicle registration and tolling. From 2014 to 2016, he was the Chief System Architect for the MYNXG Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) platform at MyOmega Systems Technologies in Nuremberg, Germany.
In 2016, Dr. Bohn joined Schaeffler Digitalization in Herzogenaurach to establish the Data Architecture & Engineering practice. With his team of data experts, he delivered and operated the Schaeffler Big Data & Analytics Platform and Schaeffler Data Lake on the Microsoft Azure Cloud.
Since October 2020, Dr. Bohn has been leading the Innovation Cluster for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Solutions in Corporate R&D at Schaeffler. He works closely with R&D business units worldwide to improve the functionality, performance and cost effectiveness of Schaeffler products using AI and machine learning methods.
His work on AI applications and partnerships covers mechatronic systems, automated vehicles, mobile robots, and digital solutions for the automotive, automotive aftermarket and industrial divisions.
Dr. Bohn is passionate about driving innovation by combining technologies and concepts from different fields in order to create novel solutions to real-world business problems, and has filed several patents in this regard.
During his time at BMW, Carlo has authored the Open Simulation Interface (OSI) - an interface for the integration of environment perceiving sensor models. He has also established the “OpenX” at ASAM e.V. as the basis for all standardized interfaces and data formats for virtual test and validation of autonomous driving and created the “ENVITED Ecosystem” at the Automotive Solution Center for Simulation e.V. as the first Distributed Market Place for Simulation Data & Models for L4+ Autonomous Vehicles using novel blockchain technology as an enabler. Prior to BMW, Carlo worked in software development for Rohde and Schwarz, and graduated from TU München with an M.Sc in electrical engineering and information technology.
Peter Zegelaar received his master's degree in mechanical engineering from the Delft University of Technology (Netherlands). He began working at the Vehicle Research Laboratory and at the same university and received his Ph.D. for to research on research into modelling the dynamic properties of tyres during braking on rough road surfaces. After completing his doctorate, he worked for five years at Robert Bosch GmbH in Schwieberdingen (Germany) on feature development for anti-lock braking systems (ABS) and electronic stability control systems (ESC). He joined Ford R&A in Aachen (Germany) in 2003 and worked on the integration of active chassis control systems. In 2008 he started working on ADAS systems and was active in the field of collision avoidance: automated braking and steering to avoid collisions. Now he is working on highly automated driving and cooperative driving. Additionally, between 2015 and 2021 he was part-time professor “Smart Vehicle Technology” at Eindhoven University of Technology (Netherlands). He still teaches the lecture "Vehicle Control" at this institute.
