GPS spoofing is an emerging threat that the automotive industry must get to grips with if autonomous driving is to become a reality.

To understand these risks further, we gathered expert opinions from Dr J. Rossouw van der Merwe together with industry opinions gleaned from across the value chain and consumer views, to understand how they view the risk of spoofing.

This whitepaper reflects the perspectives gleaned from this Smart Mobility Living Lab (SMLL) research and our expertise regarding this growing threat to autonomous driving decisions, that could compromise the safety of the vehicle’s occupants and contents, and other road users.
