Late last week, we announced the schedule for April 18 TC Sessions: Robotics + AI event at UC Berkeley, including some heavy hitters like Marc Raibert, Melonee Wise and Ken Goldberg.

At the time, we noted we still had some big names left to reveal — and we weren&t joking.

Today we&re excited to announce that we&ll be joined by autonomous vehicle pioneer Anthony Levandowski. Levandowski is the co-founder and CEO of Pronto, a new startup developing aftermarket kits for semi-trucks.

The company is touting the safety potential of autonomous vehicle technologies for cross-country hauls.

&We are not building technology that tells vehicles how to drive,& he wrote in a Medium post announcing Pronto launch.

&Instead, our team of engineers is building tech that can learn how to drive the way people do.& Before founding Pronto, Levandowski served as the head of Uber autonomous vehicle program and helped Google develop its own initiative that ultimately became Waymo.

The engineer began his career by building the autonomous motorcycle Ghostrider for DARPA Grand Challenge. Early-bird ticket sales end in less than two weeks.
