About this event
ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle Technology Expo — what to expect
ADAS & Autonomous Vehicle Technology Expo is one of the established autonomous-vehicle and ADAS gatherings in North America. The 2026 edition is at San Jose McEnery Convention Center.
Programming focuses on perception AI (LiDAR, radar, vision), sensor fusion, AV stack architectures, and the production realities of autonomy programs. The audience is heavy on automotive OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and AV startups.
Highly technical — limited consumer or marketing content. Direct overlap with robotics perception teams beyond automotive.
Why it matters for Robot.com
Three reasons to track this event
-
Perception AI patterns translate to robotics
ADAS perception stacks (LiDAR + vision + radar fusion, object detection, prediction) overlap directly with what Robot.com robotics fleets need to ship safely in unstructured environments.
-
Autonomy stack architectures are public here
Talks from AV teams on stack design, safety cases, and ODD (operational design domain) management inform robotics teams that face similar problems at smaller scale.
-
Sensor vendor access
LiDAR and radar suppliers all attend. Direct vendor conversations are far higher signal than RFI cycles.
How to work the show
A playbook for the team on the ground
- Attend the perception AI track. Skip OEM-specific platform talks unless evaluating a partnership.
- Set up sensor vendor meetings in advance — the floor fills fast.
- Network with safety case engineers — that discipline is directly portable to robotics deployments.
Robot.com fit
Where this event maps to the product family
Direct fit
Perception AI, sensor fusion, and autonomy stack patterns for the Robot.com robotics fleet (R-kiwi, R-cargo).
Adjacent fit
Safety case and ODD discipline relevant to any autonomous robot deployment in public spaces.
