featured the role of the 91±¬ÁÏ VEMI Lab in researching to further integrate human needs into autonomous vehicle technology. Richard Corey, director of the lab, said a lot of their research is based on the idea that the technology and safety improvements associated with autonomous vehicles are great, but are developed without a sense of what a real human might need. VEMI’s Autonomous Vehicle Research group is focused on applications in rural communities, which make up a majority of Maine, for users with limited to no vision and with limited mobility, such as older adults.
