While driving it’s important to be careful not only the occupants in your automobile
but also people on the road. Ofter lack of focus on the part of the driver that causes
casualties despite they are skilled. However, human body has limited capabilities. A
person gets fatigued and may be unable to respond to the needs of the situation –
critical when driving.
To make the vehicles and passengers avoid risks associated with the poor driving
skills of the driver, semi autonomous vehicles have come up.
Collision avoidance systems
It is all a boon of the electronics industry and the developments in the solid state
electronics that we have today a vast range of sensors and solid state physics in
place to develop systems for automobiles that can avert collisions. In this way they
can save us from getting our life wasted over petty road accidents due to poor skills
of some driver.
•The radars, sensors and cameras are all placed at appropriate places in a car so that
they can sense the obstacle in the way or behind the vehicle. They can also measure
the clearance of the vehicles from the obstacles and other vehicles in front or behind
or in the other vicinities of the vehicle. All these maths can be displayed on the
dashboard or the windscreen if they are augmented reality enabled and help the
driver in taking appropriate steps to avoid intersection at any point. Particularly in
heavy traffic when judicious steps have to be taken by continuously regulating the
speeds of the vehicle, this feature is of real help.
•Also in cases when the driver looses his control over the brain or his alert levels are
very low, the vehicle can by itself sense for the obstacles in its way and raise an
alarm for the driver to respond. In extreme cases, the vehicle can apply the brakes
by itself to avert a collision.
Navigating through the dense traffics
Maneuvering the vehicle in a densely crowded/heavy traffic is a skill and the amateur drivers
face a lot of trouble in driving the vehicle in dense traffic jams. Fortunately, the cars now
come with lots of sensor, cameras and laser equipment to keep an eye on the surroundings
and the blind spots that are not in the visual range of the human eye.
The sensors and other apparatus on the vehicle senses the clearances of the vehicle in its
vicinities and allows for a smooth navigation in a dense traffic. The can be put up in a mode
in which they can take control of the car in their hands and drive it through the traffic. This
feature is a magic wand for the amateurs particularly who have very poor driving skills.
Parking with ease
Parking your cars in cozy places is no less intricate than driving the cars through
dense traffic. The feature is as helpful in effective parking as it was in case of
navigating through traffic. The vehicle will make an assessment of its surroundings
with the help of cameras and radar devices. After that the vehicle can give
directions to the driver assisting him in parking the car. Alternatively the car can
take control of itself to park it on its own on instructions of the owner.
Anti lock braking systems
Anti lock braking system is a feature accommodated in vehicles in order to apply
automatic brakes that will control the traction between the roads and the wheels in
order to avoid skidding. The system applies brakes automatically on individual
wheels as per the input that are given by the driver to avoid locking up of the tires
and resultant skidding. The system monitors the speeds of the different tires
individually to ensure this.
An innovation
The feature of semi autonomous driving is an innovative feature and breakthrough in
the world of automobiles. The driving has become easy and hassle free with the
advent of this feature and expert skills are not required to drive a vehicle. Overall it
has given new dimensions to the experience of driving. This is just the beginning and
in the years to come new technologies are likely to come and make driving easy,
safe and pleasant.
