A driverless car is a vehicle that can drive itself without human assistance through the use of an autopilot system. It uses sensors like LIDAR, video cameras, distance sensors, and position estimators to detect traffic lights, nearby obstacles, and the vehicle's location to navigate autonomously. Potential benefits include increased safety, mobility for those unable to drive, and reduced traffic. However, disadvantages include security risks from hackers potentially interfering with the vehicle's systems and sensor failures increasing accident risks.

5. 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……….

6. Necessity
When life gets too much painful……
why NEED????

7. As a result……….

8. Benefits
Life is too much enjoyable……

9.  A sensor “actinometer “ is used to detect the intensity
of radiation
 Different colors light will radiate different -2-intensity
of radiation
 Which will be detected by the sensor
 If the detected intensity is of red colour or yellow
colour then controller will send a command to stop
the vehicle .
 The command will be followed by robot(to convert the
computer command into mechanical input)
How will the car detect the traffic lights ?

10. HOW THE CAR RUNS????
BY following Google
map….
 Speed Limits.
 Upcoming
intersections.
 Traffic Report.
 Nearby
collisions.
 Directions.

11. What makes the car autonomous….
 Technologies making a system fully autonomous

12.  “Heart of the system“
 LIDAR stands for Light Detection And
Ranging
 It is an optical remote sensing technology
 It can measure the distance to, or other
properties of a target by illuminating the
target with light.

13.  VIDEO CAMERA:
 Detects upcoming traffic light.
 DISTANCE SENSOR:
 Allow the car to "see" far enough to detect
 nearby or upcoming cars or obstacles
 POSITION ESTIMATOR(Wheel Encoder):

 Determines vehicle's location and keeps track of its
movements.
 AUTOMOTIVE NIGHT VISSION:
 Increases vehicle driver’s perception and seeing distance in
darkness and poor weather conditions.

14. DISADVANTAGES…
• If the user is using internet with
less security then it can be caught
by the hackers.
• Hackers can turn system on or
off
• Hackers can change the route.
• In case of failure in main senor
and backup sensor the vehicle
can create chances of accidents
