Keynote: Designing the Farm of the Future

John Deere is the world’s premier farm equipment manufacturer and is committed to those linked to the land. We believe that in serving them, we support improving the quality of life for people all around the world. We see several major global trends affecting the agriculture industry: population growth, increased demand for food, larger farms, skilled labor shortages, and environmental sustainability. Within John Deere, the modeling community is building the infrastructure to meet these challenges efficiently and effectively through the use of systems engineering, model-based development, and simulation. This development balances the need for cutting edge tools with stable enterprise-wide infrastructure. This presentation will highlight the technology that Deere is currently using and developing to meet our needs spanning from component design to designing the farm of the future.

What’s New in MATLAB and Simulink for ADAS and Automated Driving

As the level of automation increases, the use scenarios become less restricted and the testing requirements increase, making the need for modeling and simulation more critical. In this session, you will learn how MATLAB^® and Simulink^® support engineers building automated driving systems with increased levels of automation. You will learn about new features in Releases 2019b and 2020a for:

• Designing perception, planning, and controls components
• Testing by simulating driving scenarios and sensor models
• Deploying by generating C/C++ code

You will learn about these topics through examples that you can reproduce when you return to your office.
