These AI systems use a combination of sensors, cameras, GPS, and powerful onboard computers to perceive the surrounding environment, analyze data in real-time, and make decisions on how to safely and efficiently navigate roads and traffic.
It recognizes objects like other vehicles, pedestrians, traffic lights, road signs, and obstacles.
It uses this data to plan a safe and efficient route from the vehicle's current location to its destination.
It determines when to accelerate, decelerate, change lanes, and interact with other road users.
As more self-driving cars operate on the roads, they collectively contribute to a shared knowledge base that benefits the entire fleet.
They continually monitor the system's health and take appropriate actions if a malfunction is detected.
