ó?Techemergence
PC mag definition is: A computer-controlled car that drives itself. Also
called an “autonomous vehicle” and “driverless car,” self-driving
cars date back to the 1939 New York World’s Fair when General Motors
predicted the development of self-driving, radio-controlled electric
cars.
UCSUSA definition is: Self-driving vehicles are cars or trucks in which
human drivers are never required to take control to safely operate the
vehicle. Also known as autonomous or ďdriverlessĒ cars, they combine
sensors and software to control, navigate, and drive the vehicle.
Currently, there are no legally operating, fully-autonomous vehicles in
the United States.
NHTSA definition is: These self-driving vehicles ultimately will
integrate onto U.S. roadways by progressing through six levels of driver
assistance technology advancements in the coming years. This includes
everything from no automation (where a fully engaged driver is required
at all times), to full autonomy (where an automated vehicle operates
independently, without a human driver).
