Autonomous Vehicles

[rczyba][✓ rczyba, 2025-06-29]

Autonomous vehicles, also known as self-driving vehicles, are platforms that can move and make decisions without direct human intervention. They use advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, sensors, cameras, and navigation systems to analyze their surroundings and make decisions in real time. Autonomy of mobile vehicles means the ability to independently determine their own control signals. In the case of mobile platforms, this primarily involves the ability to plan a route to a destination. In order to make these decisions as correct and optimal as possible, it is crucial to have a good understanding of the environment surrounding the vehicle, which in practice is often unknown and unpredictable. Autonomous vehicles have the potential to increase road safety, reduce traffic jams, and improve the availability of transport for people who cannot drive. In recent years, many companies, including Tesla, Waymo, and Uber, have been investing in the development of these technologies, leading to intensive research and testing on public roads. As technology advances, autonomous vehicles may become more and more common in our daily lives.

Unmanned vehicles, both ground, aerial, water and underwater, are versatile structures used in various fields, from monitoring areas to search and rescue operations (SAR). Thanks to the development of a wide range of high-precision sensors and algorithms for estimating movement parameters, unmanned vehicles have the ability to localize, detect objects and avoid obstacles. New technologies are gaining importance, especially in the context of the development of vehicle autonomy. Autonomous navigation of unmanned vehicles is proving to be a significant challenge. This is a complex and dynamically developing area of technology that has the potential to revolutionize many industries and applications.
