How does our research impact the real-world development, adoption, and regulation of AI, autonomous systems and robotics? 

One of our core principles at the Centre for Assuring Autonomy is ensuring our research and innovation work can be applied to real-world scenarios and that the work we undertake is shaped and guided by existing and emerging challenges around AI and autonomy. 

Through work completed in the forerunner of the Centre, the AAIP, we have already made considerable impact into the areas of policy and regulation, safety assurance processes for developers of such technologies and increasing public awareness of the importance of, and work being done in, the area of safety of AI, robotics and autonomous systems. 

Find out how our work is impacting industry, regulators and policy makers, and the general public.

Creating an assurance-focused community

We are continuing to build alliances with organisations who share our vision of developing, deploying and operating autonomous systems safely.  We have built a network which spans continents, established relationships with organisations including The Alan Turning Institute, Fraunhofer, the NHS, the Jacobs School of Engineering at the University of San Diego, and the Health and Safety Executive. 

Through international, collaborative work we are assuring autonomy and the safe roll out of AI enabled technologies for all. 

AAIP Demonstrator Report

This is a compilation of the 26 demonstrator projects we collaborated on during the Assuring Autonomy International Programme with funding from Lloyd’s Register Foundation. The demonstrator review can be viewed below with links in the page headers to the relevant project web page on our website.

Impact and programme reports

To document our progress and showcase our work from the launch of the Assuring Autonomy International Partnership through to our evolution as the Centre for Assuring Autonomy, we produced a series of annual programme reviews. Our final Programme in Review report can be read below.
