This is an explanation of self driving cars and its technology.

2. Details of Technology
The Lidar System:
- Its mainly used by google, it detects the surroundings of the car.
- It has a 360 degree static scanning system
- Vertically and horizontally setup
- The camera is Nikon

3. ABS- Automatic breaking- explained
The senses respond by either pre-charging the breaks or by applying the breaks to slow the
vehicle without an driver input
- detects by radar , video , GPS sensors.
- It senses an imminent distance with another vehicle or object detecting velocity of danger.

4. ESC- Electronic Stability Control
- Automatically applies the breaks
- Helps to minimize a loss of control
- ESC compares the drivers intended direction to the vehicles actual direction
- Its an computerized technology that improves vehicles stability by detecting and minimizing
mistakes.

6. Cruise Control
-Adaptive Speed Control
-Collision Avoidance
- RP-1 sensors
- It keeps the car at a constant speed by taking over the throttle of the car
- It also maintains a set distance between it and the car in front of it
- Either uses a radar setup allowing the vehicle to slow down when objects in front of it.
- Cameras and radars map out surroundings
- Mainly used on highway scenarios.

7. Lane Departure Warning System
-Designed to minimize accidents by:
1. Addressing the main causes of collisions including:
•Driving errors
•Distraction
•Drowsiness
•Warns a driver when the vehicle moves out of its lane

8. Self Parking
-For self parking the car uses all of the sensors when guiding it into parallel parking.
- The driver has to find a parking space
- Position the car next to it, it has cabin navigation system and use the system on the screen to tell
it where to go
-The back up camera has a special camera on the rear view of the car.
- Alerts will sensor driver with unseen objects

10. Controlling The Car
-It is controlled by a computer which has sensors and receives instructions from the driver as
inputs by means of the desire and electric throttle control
- More and more functions are controlled by electronic and mechanical means.
- This meaning the technology for a computer to control a vehicle is well understood.
