Editorial bio

Anwesha Kar is a System Software Engineer at NVIDIA working on the software foundations of mobility – from L2 driver assistance through to L4 automated driving, with a focus on intelligent transportation and real-time communication. Her tag line is less corporate than most: "the future has to boot first".

She has 5+ years of research across the stack and four publications to her name, which puts her firmly on the "research moves into infra" side of the self-driving conversation rather than the headline side. The through-line in her work: systems that get real cars on real roads doing the right thing when the latency budget is counted in milliseconds.

Worth following if you care about autonomous driving as a systems problem – the parts you can't paper over with a demo video.
