What is an Autonomous Car
Computer controlled car that drives Itself Driverless Car or Robot Car
What we loosing?
According to Goos, 1.3 million road deaths occur worldwide per year.
There are 3,500 deaths a day, Nearly 3 people every minuite.
50 million people are seriously injured. More than 90% of road accident are due to human error.
Evolution of Autonomous Car
Experiments have been conducted since late 1920's
DARPA Grand Challenge-1 in 2004 called attention to the autonomous car race.
Grand Challenge-2 in 2005 was the great success. (Out of 195 teams, Stanley won the $2 million prize)
Urban Challenge in 2007. The 96 Km course was completed in less than 6h.
Google Driverless Car
In 2009, Google started the self-driving car project.
In 2014, Google construct its own prototype
vehicle.
Over 1 million miles testing already has been done
Other than Google
Audi Has Already Built 3 Self-Driving Prototypes
Ford Announces Plan To Research Auto Vehicles
Honda Receives Approval To Test Autonomous
Cars Nissan/Renault Says Its
Technology Will Be Ready By 2020
Advantage of Autonomous Car
Fewer Accidents- The Eno study found if 10% of all cars are self-driving, 211,000 accidents would be prevented annually
Lower Fuel Consumption- can be saved 2.9 billion gallons of fuel annually.
Improved Mobility For Children, The Elderly, And The Disabled
Future Prediction
They'll free up as much as 50 minutes per day per user, globally 1 billion free hours per day
AVs do not require open-door space when parked, allowing them to occupy parking spaces that are 15 percent tighter
Challenge
The biggest obstacle in the way of driverless car is ourselves.
According to survey of University of Michigan(505 drivers)
