SIP-adus Workshop 2022 was held in Kyoto on October 11. It was the ninth workshop since 2014, and the last workshop of SIP-adus. The event saw researchers meet face-to-face and discuss issues for the first time in three years. This international conference, organized by Japan and established to communicate information and research results to stakeholders in Japan and overseas, to build networks with overseas researchers, as well as to develop leaders capable of acting in an international capacity, has seen its profile increase with every iteration and has served to facilitate SIP-adus (Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP) Automated Driving for Universal Services) international cooperation activities. Cooperative ties formed through this workshop among researchers in Japan and overseas, and newly developed connections with younger generations, will be carried on in the future development of automated driving technologies and the process of their social implementation.
