`ANTICIPATING HUMAN BEHAVIOR IS ONE OF THE
`
`THE HARDEST PROBLEMS FOR AUTOMATED DRIVING
`
`fl It's the prediction piece that's still the great unknown.
`Humans are very good at predicting human behavior
`
`“ The choices made by driverless cars are critically
`dependent on understanding and matching the
`
`on the road. Machines will need to be able to predict
`
`expectations of humans. This is the heart of the
`
`and anticipate human behavior much better. H

`“ With radar and higlvesolution cameras and all the computing power we have. we can detect and identify the objects
`on a street. The hard part is anticipating what they're going to do next. We have deve[oped about 80% of the
`technology needed to put selfedriving cars into routine use. But the remaining 20%. including developing software
`
`that can reliably anticipate what other d rivers. pedestrians and cyclists are going to do will be much more difficult. ’7

`
`COMPANY OVERVIEW
`
`Perceptive Automata was founded by a m of Harvard and MIT neuroscientists, computer vision
`researchers, machine learning experts, and software engineers to solve what is often described as
`the hardest problem for highly automated driving: reading the state of mind of humans for the safe
`
`large-scale rollout of highly automated vehicles (L2-L5).

`
`
`Our signais increase safety and roadmanship by enabling AVs to anticipate human behavior before
`actual body motion is detected. Our signals modulate othenNise paranoid automated driving
`behavior to be more predictable and natural, which reduces rear-endings and enables a smooth ride
`
`experience. For ADAS applications our signals give human drivers better situational awareness and
`increase driver acceptance of more advanced driver assistance functions.
`
`These benefits are critical for increasingly sophisticated driver assistance functions to be embraced
`by human drivers - too many false positives lead to human drivers turning their vehicles’ driver
`assistance systems off. They also critically enable autonomous vehicles to seamlessly integrate into
`human-dominated road environments and to deliver a pleasant ride experience for passengers.

`
`People make effortless, intuitive judgments about what someone else wants or knows constantly.
`In any given thirty second interval at a busy urban intersection, there will be dozens of instances
`
`where one person looks at another and thinks, for example, "she isn’t going to cross," or "he knows
`
`I’m here and is willing to yield,” or "she doesn’t see me, I should stop.”

`
`Humans are incredibly good at silently communicating with each other. That communication is the
`key to safe, smooth and considerate driving. Until now machines have lacked this critical ability.
`
`They can’t decipher our unspoken social communications nor intuit what’s going on inside our
`heads. 50 how can we give machines like self-driving cars the ability to read human intentions, to
`know what humans know?
`
`The best currently deployed approaches to interacting with the world using computer vision and
`motion planning are insufficient for the task of interacting with humans. Existing non-PA
`
`approaches use physics to locate people and to calculate their trajectory, but can’t usefully
`
`anticipate what a pedestrian might do next. People aren’t billiard balls — we aren’t predictable
`based purely on our past motion.
`
`Let’s take the below example to illustrate this point. Many of today’s approaches convert detected
`humans into 'bounding boxes’, shown below as a yellow box in the image on the left, and then
`attempt to predict their likely actions based on calculated trajectory and context.
