Self driving cars are the future and we must be ready for it whether we like it or not.
This ppt covers self driving cars and the latest technology used in them
16. Level 2 Automation :
Auto-Pilot but with hands on the Wheel
Self Parking
Assistive breaking
Speed limit pilot
Lane assist
17. How does the Tesla Work ?
A ) “more detailed high-precision mapping data ”
18. B) 12 sensors on the bottom of the vehicle, a front-facing camera next to the
rear-view mirror, and a radar system under the nose
How does the Tesla Work ?
19. “It should not hit pedestrians, hopefully."
It Can read speed signs, recognize animals and objects in front of the car, can recognize lanes
and lane changes, and can see far better than a human can through fog, rain and dust storms.
22. Google Car : Components :
Sophisticated Software
Sonar
Positioning
High-Powered Cameras
Radar
LIDAR
23. A) Lidar : Laser Illuminating Detection &Ranging
Its is used to build a 3D map and allow the car to “see” potential hazards by bouncing a laser beam
off of surfaces surrounding the car in order to accurately determine the distance and the profile of
that object.
24. B) Four Bumper-Mounted Radar Units :
the radar units allow the car to avoid impact by sending a signal to the on-board processor to
apply the brakes, or move out of the way when applicable.
25. C) High-Powered Cameras & SONAR
Redundant system that allows the car to effectively cross-reference data from
other systems in real time to apply the brakes, pre-tension seat belts for impact,
or swerve to avoid obstacles.
Tesla has started to build high-precision maps —that have 100 times the level of granularity compared to standard navigation systems — using mostly data from Tesla cars driving on roads, but also some data from Tesla employees driving research cars.
While LIDAR is great for accurately mapping surroundings, its one fatal flaw is in its ability to accurately monitor speed of surrounding vehicles in real time.
he system works alongside the on-board cameras to process real-world information as well as GPS data, and driving speed to accurately determine the precise position of each vehicle, down to a few centimeters all while making smart corrections for things like traffic, road construction, and accidents.
