Purdue colleagues,

Dr. Darcy Bullock assisted us in compiling this list of Purdue faculty and
staff that are or have been engaged in autonomous technology devices on
campus.   If you know of others that might be interested in participating
in this safety workshop, please feel free to forward this information to
them.



The Purdue faculty, staff and student community is active in a variety of
projects involving autonomous vehicles such as:  driverless delivery,
unmanned aerial systems, personal transportation modes, micro transit,
mowing, deicing, and truck platooning.  In order to support the Purdue
activities in these areas and ensure public safety, Environmental Health
and Public Safety, the Purdue Police Department and the Office of Risk
Management are hosting two informal workshops to provide opportunities for
faculty, staff, and students to share their activities with the public
safety team.  If your work involves testing/implementing transportation
technologies or advising student organizations in this area, you are
invited to provide a 5-minute overview of activities taking place on or
near campus.

During your 5-minute presentation, please include the following information:

   - A brief overview of the activity and the type of equipment it involves
   - Where the research or competition activities will be taking place
   - What safety training is involved for staff and students working on the
   project



Two workshops have been scheduled. Both will be held in the TERY Conference
Room located at the Purdue Police Department.

on the east side of the building, not through the PUPD public entrance.

   - Tuesday, November 12 from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m.
   - Monday, November 18 from 10:00 – 11:30 a.m.
