Project Description:
It is a vehicle that can drive itself from one point to another without Assistance from a driver; in other words, with an autopilot system. Loading the code of the destination, It can go to your destination itself and without intervention from humans, the car is surrounded by a number of sensors to detect objects and other vehicles and detect the car position and velocity, fre
e standard automotive radar sensors are used : three in the front and one in the rear, Global positioning system for position identification and updates vehicles position gradually, Sensors continuously keep track of the direction and displacement. A logic processing unit is used to control the whole operations taken from the sensors and the GPS system, video camera mounted near the rear view mirror detects heavy traffic and helps the car's onboard computers to recognize moving obstacles like pedestrians also we can detect the car position by using Google maps, It is controlled via a computer, which receives instructions from the driver as inputs and delivers the desired effect by means of electronic throttle control. Therefore, the technology for a computer to control all aspects of a vehicle is well understood .Anti-brake system (ABS) is used for sudden braking. Features:
1-maintain safe, comfortable distances between vehicles without driver intervention and this minimize speed differentials between vehicles and Increase roadway capacity by reducing distance between cars.
2- Maintain high performance in poor visibility and bad weather conditions.
3- Able to predict accurately the likelihood of an imminent collision, if a collision is likely then the system should respond in such a way as to reduce the threat, the response could involve the automatic control of the vehicle or simply an appropriate warning to the driver.
4-It enhances the manual driving as the human like to drive his car.
5- Traditional cruise control systems maintain a constant vehicle speed, set by the driver there by improving comfort in steady traffic conditions.
6-automatic parking: As the car can park itself by detecting others cars, the driver has to find a parking space and, and use the in-cabin navigation screen to tell the car where it should go.
7-Reduce congestion by controlling flow of traffic as the video camera can detect over 50 meters so provide alternate routes to travelers.
8-50% of the car cost is in electronics and by this low cost could be achieved.
9-anyone can drive this car especially childrens and can help blind and disabled people to interest their life.
10- Increase safety by reducing driver error so there are no longer car accidents and Casualties.
11- Better protection from thieves as The current location of vehicle can be determined using global positioning system(G.P.S).
