Dave Ferrick, CEO of connected vehicle services and driver assistance programs provider 7291 Agero will join NHTSA Administrator David Strickland and other vehicle telematics industry leaders at the opening session of 560 ITS America's annual meeting in Nashville. They intend to forecast how personal transportation will change once all vehicles become digitally networked.
Ferrick will share his vision of the trends accelerating the convergence of digital communications and advanced computer processing within vehicles and the resulting transformation likely to emerge in driving behavior, throughout the automotive service chain and in government transportation policy.
"The digitised vehicle will radically change everything associated with operating and owning a vehicle, including how we use it, how we maintain it, and how we insure it," he said. "These changes, in turn, will require a new perspective on government transportation policy as vehicle connectivity results in greater vehicle safety, less highway congestion, and more efficient use of drive time."
Ferrick is also prepared to discuss the numerous technologically advanced developments emerging in the connected vehicle, such as configuring smartphone apps for safe access during driving; designing update-able and portable human-machine interfaces with dashboard functions; enabling in-vehicle transactions; and basing insurance premiums on vehicle-generated data reporting how, when, and where a policyholder drives.
