IRVINE, Calif.—Origence said Chris Gerdes will be a keynote speaker for its Lending Tech Live ’24 conference, scheduled June 25-27 at the Marriot Marquis in San Diego.
According to Origence, Gerdes’ keynote session, “Cars of the Future – Radically Different or a Lot Like Today?” will “unravel the complexities of the automotive industry. He will explore the science behind automotive advances, the latest technologies and how they work, what they will deliver to customers, and what challenges remain.”
Gerdes is professor emeritus of mechanical engineering at Stanford University.
At Stanford, Origence said Gerdes leads a “dynamic laboratory that delves into the intricate world of automotive engineering. His research focuses on understanding how cars move, human driving behavior, and the design of future vehicles that can collaborate seamlessly with drivers or even operate autonomously.”
Gerdes has also served as the first chief innovation officer at the U.S. Department of Transportation, shaping the Federal Automated Vehicles Policy, and representing the Department on the National Science and Technology Committee Subcommittee on Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, the company added.
