Autonomous Systems Certification

The foreword highlights a shift: terminal performance depends on earlier, better decisions under real operating conditions - not just on execution. Certification is a key part of that shift.

‍Dany Yazbeck's article focuses on certification. It shows how autonomous driving systems in industrial environments can be deployed under the European Machinery framework, despite the absence of dedicated standards. Using Embotech’s Autonomous Tractor Solution as a case study, it details how compliance is established through structured risk assessment, safety validation and independent assessment.

Certification determines whether autonomous systems can be deployed and scaled in practice.
