Self-driving cars have been all talk and very little action for nearly a decade. Operational perfection always seems “another ten years away”.

Ensuring safety in a teleoperation platform is the most important element in Ottopia’s mission. Safety is a topic that arises with all of our partners and customers. In order to share our approach with a broader audience, the Ottopia team is publishing a series of posts on the topic of teleoperation safety.
