Autonomous vehicles use AI to drive themselves without human input, combining sensors, cameras, and decision-making algorithms.
Multiple AI systems work together: computer vision identifies objects, sensor fusion combines data from cameras and radar, and decision algorithms choose actions like steering and braking.
The vehicle constantly maps its environment, predicts what other drivers will do, and plans safe routes.
Self-driving cars could reduce traffic deaths, help disabled people travel independently, and change how cities work. They represent one of AI's most visible and challenging applications.
Progress happens gradually, with features like lane keeping and automatic parking leading to full autonomy.
