Google driver less car is also known as autonomous car. It can travel from one point to another without any assistance from driver. It uses hardware sensors like LiDAR, position estimator, distance sensor, GPS, etc and Artificial Intelligence. Google map and Google street view are used for proper navigation. This technology reduces the traffic accidents and will make navigation more efficient.
2. Driver error is the most common cause of traffic accidents
India contributes 6 % of the world's road accident deaths
Cell phones, in-car entertainment systems, more traffic and more
complicated road systems making it more frequent
By this improving technology our car will do the concentrating for us.
3.
4. Integrates many of the google
application to run efficiently.
It is operated by automatic pilote
system
It works with google map to provide
minute information about the road
Hardware sensors to provide
information about real time
environment condition.
Artificial intelligence, real time
decisions are taken with the help of
this software
Google map uses GPS
5. Google map
Google map interact with GPS &
provide accurate location as well
as it act as the data base.
Speed limits are integrated with in
the map which control the car to
the restricted speed .
Provide upcoming intersection,
direction, speed limit, etc.
Google Street View
It provide street level images of
entire cities all around the world.
The number and density of geo-positioned
images available make
this service truly unprecedented
6. Real time updates are necessary to achieve maximum efficiency
because of dynamic environment.
Hardware sensors are built around the car.
Provide full observable environment.
Main sensors:
> LIDAR
> Video Camera
> Position Estimator
> RADAR
> Distance Sensor
7. A spinning range-finding unit on top of the car
is called LIDAR.
It has 64 lasers and receivers.
64 meter coverage and bandwidth 600-1000nm.
It creates a detailed map of the car’s
surroundings as it moves.
For imaging of objects it uses UV, near infrared
or visible lights.
Components that make up a LIDAR include:
> Laser
> Scanner and Optics
> Photo detector and Receiver electronics
> Position and Navigation systems
8. Video camera is used to
capture traffic lights.
Information about traffic light
helps to control the car on the
road.
It offers 45&90 degree field of
view.
It reads line marking
9. It determine vehicle’s location
and track down its movement.
Ultrasonic sensors mounted on
rear wheel of the car to
monitor the movement of the
car and this information is
automatically updated .
It also assist self parking
10. Distance sensor is used to
detect the presence of near by
car or obstacles.
The sensor emits
Electromagnetic waves and
checks the changes in the
return waves.
Short and long terms radars
for object detection
Four automotive distance
sensors.
11. Google map and hardware sensors sends the data to the
artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence is a key component that determines how
fast car should accelerate, determine the moment to slow
down/stop and determine when to take over the steering
control of the wheel.
Processor employed in this car cross check all the information
obtained from different sensors.
12.
13. Anti-lock brakes(ABS)
Electronic stability control (ESC)
Cruise control
Self Parking
Automated Guided Vehicle
Systems
14. Increasing roadway capacity by reducing distance
between the cars.
Reduce congestion by controlling flow of traffic
Can do works or rest while drive
Take itself to gas station and to get repaired/serviced
down on costs of bus service
You can just click an app on you Smartphone to get a car
to you immediately
Increase safety by reducing driver error
Fewer mechanical problems and breakdowns.
Decrease amount of import oil
Reduce urban greenhouse gas emissions by 80%
15. If the vehicle is using internet which is have less security then
From the hackers point of view in some cases the vehicle can be
switched off on the road(in rare cases)
Hackers can change the rout which is plotted in the system(in
rare cases)
In case of failure of main sensor and backup sensors the vehicle
can create a chance of accident
Costly
16.
17. The driver less car’s technologies
improves vehicle's stability
helps to minimize loss of
control.
Driver less cars are designed to
minimize accidents by
addressing the main causes of
collisions: driving error,
distraction and drowsiness.
