The Science Behind Self-Driving Cars
Self-driving cars use a combination of sensors, cameras, and advanced algorithms to operate autonomously. Sensors and cameras gather real-time data about the surroundings, which is processed by onboard computers using machine learning to make driving decisions. Technologies like lidar and radar create 3D maps, while GPS and IMU provide precise location data. The vehicle’s AI integrates this information to navigate safely and adapt to traffic signals and obstacles, improving accuracy and reliability over time.
