Origins
The Safety Pool™ Initiative was founded by Deepen AI and WMG, University of Warwick, UK. It
is as the
sister initiative of the World Economic Forum Safe Drive Initiative, whose goal is to design
and
deliver a policy framework for the global safety assessment of Automated Driving Systems.
Mission
Safety Pool™ mission is to unite stakeholders from industry, academia, and policymaking all around the
world under a common ecosystem that bolsters transparent, certifiable safety for Automated Driving
Systems.
Safety Pool™ also strives to bridge the gap between industry, academia, and
policymaking by leading the research and fostering the development of common description languages,
standards and mediums that allow for a meaningful exchange of technical information and artefacts across all
the different stakeholders worldwide.
Execution
The first step towards Safety Pool™ mission is the creation of the Safety Pool™ Scenario Database. The
database of curated driving scenarios shared across stakeholders and geographies, where organizations can
exchange, research, test, benchmark scenarios and use the insights to inform the making of policy and
regulatory guidelines.
