5 Autonomous Vehicles to Watch Out For
Autonomous vehicles, which have recently attracted the attention and curiosity of many people, have become quite popular. For those who wonder what an autonomous vehicle is, let's explain the subject a little.
"An autonomous car, also known as a robot car or driverless car, is a type of automobile that can sense its surroundings and move with little or no human input."
It concluded that only 14% of drivers would trust getting into a self-driving car, even if it commanded attention. On the other hand, the technology of autonomous vehicles has rapidly spread to mainstream vehicles over the past few years. Although all these systems are automated, it is still safest if the driver is responsible and ready to take over driving.
Let's look at the vehicles that have this system:
Volvo 360C
The most sound vehicle of recent times came from Volvo. Although we do not yet have this vehicle, which is defined as 360c Concept, we had the chance to see what awaits us in the coming years. Since the vehicle has a 100% electric structure, 4 people have the opportunity to sit and travel together. Volvo 360c Concept has many more features that it offers to its users. Above all, the sensitivity of being a 100% electric car to the world is worth everything.
Mercedes-Benz Vision Urbanetic
And Mercedes is at it again, unveiling its Vision Urbanetic, a vehicle that can move autonomously for both passengers and cargo. The vehicle has two electric motors. Mercedes-Benz Vision Urbanetic can be used with a phone application. When the Mercedes-Benz Vision Urbanetic is fitted with a load-carrying superstructure, it will be able to transport cargo to its destination without the need for a driver.
Renault EZ-Ultimo
With the EZ-Ultimo, Renault has proved itself even more innovative. This vehicle sheds light on how comfortable travel will become in the new era.
Toyota Concept-i
The Concept-i, which has an artificial intelligence called Yui, tends to make a difference against autonomous vehicles on the market. What is this difference? It memorizes the entire history of the driver and provides travel support according to their psychological state. "Yui" in Concept-i has a technology that can talk to you. And it will even communicate with its surroundings. For example, it will be able to greet someone coming near the vehicle by saying "Hello".
Rinspeed Oasis
At CES 2017 and NAIAS 2017, Rinspeed premiered its newest model in North America. In addition to being an autonomous vehicle, the Oasis has also managed to attract attention in other ways. The interior of the vehicle has a garden where you can grow vegetables, fruits or Bonsai trees. If the Oasis project is realized, it will be possible to start using shared vehicles. In other words, you will be able to leave the vehicle after using it, and the vehicle will park itself in a suitable area to wait for another passenger. If the electric Oasis runs out of charge, mobile emergency charging robots will provide you with a full energy pack.
This is what technology should be like. Vehicles that make us say "this is what technology should be like" are waiting for us in the near future.
