I like that you pointed out industrial equipment. Those evaluations are usually pretty intense, and that's within a very controlled environment.

Rule #1 of automation in my experience is: limit the scope of what you're automating. Control as many variables as you can, make the requirements very specific. Every feature or situation or capability you add increases the difficulty exponentially.

Self-driving vehicles on the open road in the real world is an inherently unbound problem. The scope is nearly limitless. Good luck.
