ROLE OF DRIVERLESS CARS IN COMPUTING SECTOR
Introduction
The present world has been introduced with various kinds of technologies that are
allowing the simplification of several processes. Several companies are pursuing the idea of
driverless cars that are allowing common people to use this technology and gain major
benefits. This report intends to analyse the role of driverless cars in the computing sector and
how it is helping the companies to achieve significant growth. A brief discussion of the
driverless cars has been provided in this report. This report provides a clear description of the
role of driverless cars in the present world and how it is being used by the companies for
achieving competitive growth.
Discussion
Driverless cars
With the introduction of the modern technologies in the present world, the car
industries are starting the development of the driverless cars. It utilises the electronic
technologies along with several other technologies (Jamalnia 2017). A driverless car, that is
also referred as the autonomous vehicle is the kind of vehicle that possesses the capability of
sensing the surrounding and even move safely with minor or even no input from humans. The
driverless car combines various sensors for perceiving the environment around them for
properly identifying the suitable paths for navigation and the obstacles. These cars needs the
presence of any driver but they also have the ability of driving independently. The vehicle
manufacturers as well as their respective systems suppliers are constantly exploring the main
opportunities for the complete autonomy of the vehicles (Amichai-Hamburger et al. 2020).
With comparison to the older traditional vehicles, the driverless cars provides several benefits
because of the several features present. Initially, it could be considered that the most popular
features is that the driverless cars could easily handle any congestion in the traffic while

driving effectively on the road that denotes lane keeping, changing the lane deprived of any
need of steering the wheel and the adaptive cruise control for maintaining significantly safe
distance (Mukherjee, Mukherjee and Dey 2019). It could easily maintain the safe distance
while moving on any highway. The laser ranging system is effectively used by the vehicle for
scanning the surroundings within the three dimensions, and the video cameras are used for
identifying the objects, for example, the traffic lights, any construction lights, any pedestrian
and the other vehicles. One more feature of the driverless car could be considered is that it
aids in reducing the use of fuel while driving on any road. The person possessing driverless
car could gain the benefit of saving extensive money. The driverless car utilises significantly
less fuel while driving on roads. The most recent feature of the driverless car is the utilisation
of the ultrasonic sensors on the rear wheels. The ultrasonic sensor assists the passengers with
alerting the car when the tires are running out of air (Simons and Malkin 2020). The
ultrasonic sensors also helps the passengers in notifying earlier regarding any leakage in the
tires. The software program of the driverless car maintains the proper road behaviour on the
roads. The controlling of the car is entirely on the software of the driverless car. Another
recent feature of the driverless cars is the utilisation of aerial on rear of car for reading the
geo location. The aerial mainly receives the information from GPS and the sensor inside the
car assists in localising itself. The map of the driverless cars updates any innovative
information of the positions by help of the sensor while moving. The driverless cars
integrates the complex GPS systems technology that assists in sensing the varying road
conditions and the systems that allows with acting on the data for gaining information
regarding the destination (Simons, Feltman and Malkin 2018). Ultimately, the recent news
regarding the driverless car is the impact of this technology in global scale and local scale.
The driverless car allows is keeping the environment significantly clean and fresh. Several
countries have made the decision that the construction of the factories of driverless car should
