Abstract: A company releasing self driving technology to the public needs to consider the outcomes that might come from the vehicle and the factors that could change the design of the car. Many factors such as laws, cost, economic impact, safety, and the public reception play into the outcomes and design constraints. All of these factors embody social and economic turnouts that could grow from the introduction of an autonomous car to the public. Essay: Promise of autonomous cars has painted a…

Have you ever wanted to read a book or watch a movie while driving? How about taking a nap while on a long drive? Well the future is here and companies are now making that possible with self-driving cars. Some people have many questions when dealing with this topic like, Are they better? What if it malfunctions? Are they going to be affordable? Should we really replace humans with another machine? The answer is no, we should not replace human drivers with self-driving cars. First, who will…

Imagine a world where licenses were nothing but a plastic card. A day where permits and licenses are no longer needed. This new age has come faster than most people expected because driverless cars are here. People thought “Transformers” was just a movie but now, can it be a reality? Although not all cars will be controlled by itself, driverless vehicles will be both autonomous and man powered, they will soon advance to where they are completely autonomous.The day of man-powered vehicles is…

As an irreplaceable transportation tool in human life, the vehicle has rapidly advanced in recent years. The future vehicle will have a sensor, which can scan 600 feet of distance around the vehicle, which is a self-driving technology (Markoff, 2014). The innovation of self-driving cars is kind of a life-changing breakthrough because it can reduce the stress of drivers and guarantee road safety. Smart technology like voice control, driver override system, Biometric vehicle access and a…

The Autonomous Connected Car: Feasibility, Probability, and Onboard Features A man falls asleep while driving his car. His car automatically takes control and he is safe from any accident and, he is still headed towards his destination. His kids in backseat play online games using the car’s Wi-Fi capability. The car arrives at the man’s place of work and the car automatically uses its playlist of destinations to take the kids to school and proceed to drive back home and await its next command…

A car driving by itself to California, Brazil, Canada. What an interesting thought. This thought is becoming a reality seeing as the driver less car already exists. There is a lot of controversy around this driver less car on whether or not it should become a reality. Although many critics say that the driver less car is a crazy idea, the driver less car would be a great idea because of how beneficial they are all over the world. Driver less cars are an exemplary idea because they are extremely…

The 21st century keeps producing new and even more improved technology. At one point the computers got more efficient, then the cell phone, now its motorized vehicles. The Self-driving car introduces a world of can- do attitudes and self- sufficiency. These vehicles may have many advantages and liabilities: it is up to the consumer to figure out if the pros outweigh the cons. When I was seventeen years of age, I nearly lost my life in a grievous car accident, which caused me to become sedentary.…

My First Car As people grow, they start to do new things, learn new things, and say new things. One of the biggest thing that anyone to everyone will do once they become teenagers is drive. Not every teenager gets the chance to drive at first. Some people don’t get to drive until they are older than twenty-one. Driving in todays’ society is either a necessity or just something people want to do. First time driving can go a few different ways. Some people can be scared, while others can be…

As the goal of this study is to gauge the appeal of purchasing an autonomous Lamborghini car, we had to test what degree of autonomy is most influential in determining its desirability. By degree of autonomy, we mean is the car fully autonomous, where the driver would need to do nothing else except turn the car on and off to get to his/her destination; or is the car semi-autonomous, where the car only has self-parking features. To test our new brand extension idea, we must assess and determine…

From SIRI to autonomous cars, artificial intelligence (AI) continues to grow rapidly. Today, artificial intelligence is known as narrow AI (or weak AI), as it is designed to perform a narrow task, for example, voice recognition only or only driving a car. “Researchers’ long-term goal is to create artificial general intelligence (AGI or strong AI). While narrow AI may outperform humans at whatever its specific task is, general AI would outperform humans at nearly every cognitive task.” (Tegmark,…
