The appointment of Dr. Gahl Berkooz, former data director at Ford and GM, to Chief Data Officer, marks a strategy beyond a simulator: providing a unified platform for the development and verification of ADAS.

Berkooz: “Our goal is to provide a unified platform that supports data from simulations as well as from actual sensors. This will help reduce verification and road test costs.”

In this position, Gahl is responsible for leading Cognata’s strategy to converge real-world sensor data and simulation data with a robust AV and ADAS data management back end.
