In this first episode we have had the great pleasure of interviewing professor Alberto Broggi from University of Parma in Italy. He is CEO and President of VisLab, an Internationally renowned research center which has been present in many media recently, especially after accomplishing an astonishing challenge: during the 2010 Summer, for 100 days they drove autonomously from Parma to the International Expo in Shanghai, China. We talked to him on the lessons learnt on that challenge, their current works and some future forecasts on autonomous driving. It’s really interesting stuff, don’t miss it!
