Self Driving Car ServiceBy: Tyler Lederman, Timothy Cao, and Ezra White
Overview
• No need to pay attention to the road.
• Spend time doing other things, while traveling.
Autonomous Cars are capable of fulfilling the human transportation capabilities of a traditional car while sensing its environment and navigating without human input
Demographic• Elderly, Handicapped, and
people without licenses.• Businesses that need to
transport their goods/products.
The vehicle generates a detailed 3D map of its environment. The car then takes these generated maps and combines them with high-resolution maps of the world, producing different types of data models that allow it to drive itself.
Google's robotic cars have about $150,000 in equipment.
Technology
The Service• Remotely access a vehicle
through your smart phone and signal it to your exact location.
• Enter in the location you want to go to and enjoy the ride!
Service Cont.• Centralized parking garage to refuel/recharge vehicles.
• Allows for long distance and extravagant travel.
Advantages• Fewer traffic collisions
• Autonomous system’s increased reliability and reaction time compared to humans
• Higher speed limits• Removal of constraints on occupant’s state
• Ex: Underage, Overage, Blind, Distracted, Intoxicated
• Allow people to sleep during overnight travel• Reduction in need for traffic police and car
insurance Disadvantages• Reliance on autonomous cars
produces less experienced drivers for when manual drive is needed
• By 2015, Audi, Cadillac, and Nissan plan to market vehicles that can autonomously perform functions such as steering, accelerating, and braking
• By 2016, Mobileye expects to release fully autonomous car technology
• By 2018, Google expects to release their autonomous car technology
• In 2035, IHS Automotive report predicts that most self-driving vehicles will be able to operate completely without human control
