Research and innovation focus by domain
The CfAA works across multiple domains, connecting researchers and industry to move forward the state-of-the-art in safety assurance of autonomous systems.
These sections present all of the research taking place in specific areas, they also highlight cross-domain work. Where possible, the guidance we publish is intentionally developed to be suitable for use in any domain, and so our research examples can often be applied in any sector.
