From Photon to Perception: Rethinking HDR Validation for Automotive Cameras
High dynamic range (HDR) imaging has become essential for modern ADAS and autonomous driving systems, but producing a visually appealing image does not always result in better perception performance.
Trade-offs between LED flicker mitigation, motion blur, dynamic resolution and low-light performance can significantly affect how reliably vehicles detect and interpret their surroundings. We spoke with Gabriel Bowers, Senior Principal Engineer at Mobileye, about why traditional image quality metrics are no longer enough, how real-world HDR validation should be approached, and why a “photon to KPI” methodology is becoming increasingly important for safety-critical automotive camera systems.

Measuring Trust: Why Metrology Matters in Autonomous Vehicle Perception
We spoke to Paola Iacomussi, Senior Researcher at the Italian National Metrological Institute (INRiM) and lecturer at the University of Turin about one of the less-discussed challenges facing ADAS and autonomous vehicle development: how to build truly trustworthy perception systems. Drawing on three decades of experience in metrology, road-environment characterisation and lighting applications, Paola explores why robust perception is not just about adding more scenarios or sensor modalities, but about understanding uncertainty, calibration and the real-world behaviour of sensors under changing environmental conditions.
An Interview with Alex Polonsky: From AI Hype to Real-World Reliability
As AI adoption accelerates across automotive and autonomy, the gap between impressive demonstrations and truly production-ready systems is becoming impossible to ignore.
In this interview, Alex Polonsky, AI Lead Americas at Brose draws on experience spanning motorsport, NASA research, autonomous systems, and enterprise AI to explore what it really takes to build scalable, reliable, and trustworthy AI in safety-critical environments. From governance and validation to systems integration and operational deployment, the conversation cuts through the hype to focus on the engineering discipline required to make AI perform under real-world conditions.
