[Self Driving Cars] Are they the future?

If you have ever watched NightRider or seen any spy like movie then you're probably familiar with the notion of a self driving vehicle. A self driving vehicle is an autonomous car, also known as a uncrewed vehicle, driverless car, self-driving car and robotic car, is an autonomous vehiclesapable of fulfilling the main transportation capabilities of a traditional car. As an autonomous vehicle, it is capable of sensing its environment and navigating without human input.

Many large technology based companies including Google, Tesla, Audi and a few more have been experimenting with manufacturing cars that can drive themselves, think for themselves and become aware of their surroundings to better adjust to their current situation...much like a human does...

The technology behind this is really fascinating. Autonomous vehicles sense their surroundings with such techniques as radar, liar, GPS, and computer vision. Advanced control systems interpret sensory information to identify appropriate navigation paths, as well as obstacles and relevant signage. By definition, autonomous vehicles are capable of updating their maps based on sensory input, allowing the vehicles to keep track of their position even when conditions change or when they enter uncharted environments.

Thanks to their innovation they have been able to make the batteries last much longer and make the over all car much faster thanks to it's electric high power motor.
