On-road automated vehicles (AVs) are expected to significantly influence key aspects of everyday life. However, these complex systems can pose a safety risk in the event of unexpected system performance. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) held the Standards and Performance Metrics for On-Road Autonomous Vehicles Workshop in March 2022 to solicit stakeholder feedback with respect to challenges and opportunities in developing standards and performance metrics for this complex interdisciplinary field. The output of the workshop, which is summarized at https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.IR.8442, identified a number of key areas in which NIST could have an impact. Over the past year, NIST has started to perform research and explore performance metrics and standards in a number of those areas, including artificial intelligence (AI), communications, cybersecurity, perception, and systems interaction. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together the AV community to update them on NIST’s recent work in the area, provide a forum to provide feedback, and set a path forward to ensure that NIST’s efforts in developing standards and performance metrics provide the greatest value to the community.
