INTRODUCTION
The driverless vehicles in
getting into the heart of the
society
Currently, there is heated
competition by country on who
will emerge the first to deliver
the driverless vehicle.

DEVELOPMENT OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES
China, the Baidu has developed and released a
driverless prototype car
In Japan, the Toyota and Nissan are developing
and hope realize by 2020.
In Australia-‘RAC Intellibus’ is on test.
Yandex in Russia are in their driverless minibus
testing
In America:
Waymo, Ford, and General Motors,
Uber,‘Nutonomy’ test their driverless cars

ORGANIZATIONS WORKING FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE AND THEIR
DEVELOPMENTS
The Organizations working for this challenge:
Waymo, Ford- Volkswagen Group, BMW-Intel-
FCA, Aptiv- Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance,
Volvo-Autoliv-Ericsson-Zenuity,

HISTORY AND TYPE OF DRIVERLESS VEHICLE
The journey began in 1925 - radio-controlled car invented
The artificial intelligence concept was born in 1969
1980’s, there emerged robotic van
EUREKA in between 1987 to 1995 - created Prometheus Project
In 1987 - emergence of neural systems
The 2008 era with advancements in technology saw great
advancement
In 1996, the ARGO Project employed a changed Lancia Thema.
In 2014 - semi-autonomous car realized.
Tesla in 2015, created Model S that combined sleek looks and
driverless system

REASON FOR COMMERCIALIZATION
Organizations that are currently venturing and
putting efforts and money on the driverless
vehicle are because of the looming fortune
ahead.
Its worth is approximately $7 trillion a year.

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF DRIVERLESS VEHICLES
Advantages of Driver-less Vehicles
Minimal accidents
Increase of leisure activity onboard.
Reduced traffic jam
Takes care of special need people.
Reduction in costs
Disadvantages of Driver-less Vehicles
The buying cost too prohibitive
Unemployment.
Fatal accidents
No the privacy of information.
The security- prone to hackers
Calls for upgrading present infrastructure

THE PARADOX SITUATION OF DRIVERLESS CARS
The Radar Reflections
Accident Liability
Crowd Navigation
THE FUTURE OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE
uniformity in hardware and software used
Shift in the way of doing things

CONCLUSION
It is apparent that the far-fetched dream is near;
however, there is the paradox situation that is
blurring the dream from its full realization.
The radar reflection, the liability issue, the
crowd navigation among the many challenges
the realization of the dream.
The future of autonomous vehicle is promising
if only the paradox situation is solved. The
efforts that are exerted through collaboration and
research will soon bore fruits and transform lives
in the society.
