- As stated, sensor methods use radar, lidar, and multiple methods that "watch" the car and let it know how to navigate.
- Found in existing methods already, such as Rear Parking Assist, Parallel Parking Assist, Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist systems.
- Uses image processing to process each object in the world and determine distance, speed, and much more.
- This image processing "paints the picture" for the car to follow.
- Some of the best methods use mixtures of laser and radars. Others to mention also use mathematical models and computational coding to naviagate paths.
- Sensory methods use a mixture of hardware and software, based more on hardware to make the car navigate correctly.
- Mathematical and computational methods rely more on software than hardware to navigate the car. Hardware is still used to update real time events that happen, but the software updates the steering and where the car needs to go.
- These are just a few of the methods, and there are still hundreds that are being worked on continuously getting better, and there still is not a perfect method as of today.
- Many different variations of these methods. Pure Pursuit and Stanley Method are among the most popular.
- Pure Pursuit is found in fighter jet missile tracking, for taking down enemies.
- Pure Pursuit utilizes a look ahead point using the rear of the vehicle.
- Stanley Method uses a cross track method, coming from the front axle rather than the rear, which allows the front wheels to automatically align with the tracked path, much like a constant correction system.
- As stated, there are no perfect methods, but some of these methods when put together would make a very successful method.
- An example of this would be mixing a sensory method with a mathematical method, so there's an even amount of hardware and software that does the work needed.
- Autonomous vehicles may also be implemented into an Intelligent Highway System, which would utilize a two-way broadcast between the car and a communication tower, to update traffic in real time to each car. This would only be useful if every car was autonomous, though, and is still far from happening.
- People have envisioned fully autonomous vehicles since the days of Leonardo di Vinci.
- By 1953, there were scale models of an automated highway system that were already proposed.
- The autonomous car is a vehicle that can:
- Transport one person, or more, to a destination.
- Runs solely on computerized equipment to help it drive
- Projected to be fully operational in 2023.
There are currently driverless cars already,
but only set for short trips.
- The autonomous car is a vehicle that is capable of fulfilling the main transportation capabilities of a traditional car.
- Google and Tesla have been leading this business and have made large advancements on this.
- There are already a few methods that are semi autonomous and have shown a lot of promise in getting to a fully autonomous method.
- As there is no absolute method yet, there is no "one best way" for autonomous cars just yet.
- These methods are just a couple concrete examples of methods used in testing today.
- A perfect method would require a fine balance between hardware and software, utilizing methods of these variants, if not these methods specifically.
- Autonomous vehicles are on a fast track right now, and we could see them as soon as 2020, or shortly after.
