He sees three major benefits: Safety, over 90% of accidents are due to human error; increased mobility, only 45% of the French population has access to public transport; and reduction in congestion, through greater efficiency in road usage.

The technological challenges are great so in France there is a joint pre-competitive project investigating the core requirements. Rémi is the President of Mov’eo, a Paris-based mobility and automotive organization designed to foster competitiveness among members while supporting sustainability and innovation throughout the entire mobility ecosystem in France.

Scenario identification 

One of these initiatives is looking at scenario identification (MOOVE project) creating use case definitions for real world driving safety critical scenarios.

Renault’s goal for autonomous vehicles is to change the experience of riding in cars, making it more pleasant, less stressful and more productive. In “Mind Off” autonomous mode, drivers will be able to make better use of their time by using in-vehicle connectivity to answer emails, watch videos or safely converse with passengers.

Rémi’s prediction is that by 2022, Renault will offer 15 models with autonomous driving technologies, 100% of cars will offer connection to services and there will be fleets of a new breed of mobility services.
