Overview of Autonomous Vehicle and Its Challenges

The autonomous vehicles (AVs) are an intelligent mode of transport which can perceive their surroundings and perform autonomous actions without human control. The advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) technology is considered as the future of transportation systems. The main aim of autonomous driving is to implement a safe transport system for people of all ages, minimize accidents and congestion on roads and make use of resources more efficiently. As the performance of AV will not be affected by emotions, distraction, fatigue compared to humans, it makes them more reliable and safer. Along with the advantages, there are various challenges faced by the AVs which need to be resolved before they can be fully commercialized. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of autonomous vehicles including its development, review challenges faced and future presence.
