Topic: Safe and Secure Automated and Connected Driving from the prespective of a Technical Service

Abstract: With the advent of automation and connectivity, inspection of vehicle safety – one of the core tasks of Technical Services – is undergoing fundamental change. As a result of automation, most driving tasks will be handed over to the vehicle control system, while connectivity will allow even the safety features of a vehicle to be changed flexibly in future by means of over-the-air updates. The responsibilities of Technical Services can be divided into two types of activities: pre-market and post-market activities. The challenges and activities will be elaborated in detail.
