self driving cars aren’t even hard to make lol just program it not to hit stuff
if(goingToHitStuff) {
dont();
}
You lot are either joking, or very ignorant.
well hey now, cybersmith, i think that’s pretty rude. all you need to do is program it not to hit things, what’s so complicated about that
Because you have to:
A: determine what a “thing” is.
B: identify “things” in the vehicle’s surroundings.
C: correctly predict the vehicle’s future path.
D: take proper action if a “thing” is located in the vehicle’s path.
All of this must take place in real-time, and can only run on the vehicle’s onboard computer.
Each of these tasks must be able to output and input data in a way that the other tasks can interpret.
Each of these tasks, by themselves, have sufficient internal complexity to warrant multiple academic monographs.
just program it so that if the camera sees anything in front of it the computer turns the car away from it. maybe put two more cameras on the sides of the car so that if there are things to either side it knows to brake
So, if a leaf blows past the forward camera on a high-speed motorway, a car traveling in excess of eighty Kmph will brake?
That’s a recipe for disaster.
no, because of the leaf detection software
