As we all know, robots perform prescribed tasks without human intervention. Similarly, autonomous driving refers to autonomous vehicles or transport systems.
They are a systematic combination of advanced sensor technologies, intelligent control systems and intelligent actuators.
In 2014, SAE International(Society of Automotive Engineers) published a standard called “J3016” that defines various levels development up to fully autonomous vehicles. The levels for autonomous driving range are from level 0, i.e., no automation, up to level 5, i.e., full vehicle autonomy.
From the 1950s to the present, driving safety has evolved with predefined safety standards:
Safety/Convenience Features Cruise Control, Seat Belts, Anti-Lock Brakes
Advanced Safety Features Electronic Stability Control, Blind Spot Detection, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning
Advanced Driver Assistance Features Rear-view Video Systems, Automatic Emergency Braking, Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking, Rear Automatic Emergency Braking, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Lane Centering Assist
Partially Automated Safety Features Lane Keeping Assist Adaptive Cruise Control, Traffic Jam Assist
Fully Automated Safety Features
The sensing part is equivalent to the eyes and ears of a human being, which perceives the environment and vehicle through sensors such as in-vehicle cameras, LiDAR, and millimetre-wave radar, collects data from the surrounding environment, and transmits it to the decision-making layer
The decision-making part is equivalent to the brain of a human being, which processes the received data in real time and outputs the corresponding operation and instruction tasks through the operating system, chip, and computing platform
The execution end is equivalent to the limbs of a human being, which executes the received operation instructions to the vehicle terminal parts such as power supply, direction control, and light control.
Machine Learning paves the way for machines to make decisions based on their memory; this enables self-driving vehicles to exist. They allow a vehicle to collect data on its surroundings from cameras and other sensors, interpret it and decide what actions to take. They also help in reducing accidents and saving lives.
The smart sensor in the perception link is the “eyes” of the smart driving vehicle, and the mainstream sensor products currently used in environmental perception include cameras, millimeter wave radar, ultrasonic radar and LiDAR.
Currently, no company is able to offer fully autonomous vehicles on a large scale. With the development of technology, autonomous driving could become a key player leading the economy in the near future. Over the next decade, autonomous vehicles will open up markets on a larger scale around the world. Contact us to know more.
