  • First Online:
Automated Driving

Abstract

This chapter introduces the emerging topic of automated driving and motivates the subsequent chapters written by renowned authors and experts from industry and academia. We briefly discuss essential building blocks and key technologies to enable automated driving. Furthermore, we address required advances, inspirations, and fields of actions to shift automation to the next level of maturity and hence to foster end-user acceptance of this exciting and disruptive technology.
