Autonomous cars: Recent developments, challenges, and possible solutions
Abstract
The development of production automobiles involved vehicles that were propelled by internal combustion engines. Improvements in the internal combustion technology continue to take place even today. However, electric vehicles are slowly making way into the bigger picture. Development in autonomous vehicle technology is also gathering pace. Although there has been remarkable progress in this domain, much needs to be accomplished. Adoption of autonomous vehicle technology has multiple benefits. Autonomous car companies have spent large amount of resources on the development of autonomous vehicle technology, with an aim to fully commercialize the technology. Several issues cause hindrance to the achievement of this goal. These issues comprise technical, non-technical and legal challenges. The future of the technology is assuring and ambitious, however, the challenges must be overcome.
