I enjoyed the opportunity to participate in EV Roadmap 7, sponsored by Drive Oregon and held in Portland, Oregon from July 24-25, 2014. I moderated an excellent panel on "Electric Vehicles as The Testbed For Connected Cars and ITS," that included Prof. Matt Barth and Scott Belcher (pictured), and I also spoke in a panel on "Vehicle Automation," with my talk entitled, "Perspectives on Degrees of Vehicle Connectivity, Automation and Autonomous Vehicles." Overall a fascinating experience.
