Plug and Play and PhotonDelta are convening a group of senior technology leaders for a closed-door automotive roundtable.
The session is designed to surface concrete, unmet challenges in the automotive sector where photonics could play a role, directly with experts facing them daily.
Rather than open-ended discussion, this will be a structured, problem-first session across four areas of focus:
- Sensing & perception
- Connectivity
- Onboard intelligence
- Battery sensing & thermal management.
No prior photonics expertise is required. Participants leave with concrete insights on where photonics can realistically address their engineering challenges.
Agenda
- 03:15 PM - Doors open
- 03:30 PM - Introduction & Inspiration
- 03:45 PM - Areas of Focus Discussion
- 04:15 PM - Challenge Mapping
- 04:55 PM - Wrap-up & Next Steps
- 05:00 PM - Networking & Drinks
What to expect
- A closed-door, peer-to-peer session designed to move beyond theory
- Real operational challenges shared by peers facing them daily
- An honest assessment of gaps and how photonics-enabled solutions can realistically address them
Target Group
Senior innovation and technology leaders from OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, including Vehicle Architecture Leads, Electrical/System Architects, Sensing & Perception Engineers, and ADAS/Autonomous Driving Leads.
