The body shivers at the thought of a car without a steering wheel, doesn’t it? I think this understanding became an accident, this understanding turned to the right or left. Yet with the touch of modern technology, you can now see cars without steering on the road. There are even some self-driving cars that have no pedals! Today we will learn about some models of self-driving cars that have no steering wheel, no pedals. Since 2019, General Motors has been working on one such car, the Cruise AV.
Although the Cruise AV is not the first car without a steering wheel, many car manufacturers have worked on the features before. General Motors has always wanted to build cars that can move smoothly on the road. And they have worked on how to reduce car accidents. About 94% of road accidents are caused by human negligence. Self-driving cars are coming to the market to solve the problem of car parking and speed with the right, right place technology.
Features that will be inside the car
Automakers have built the Cruise AV based on the Chevrolet Bolt. But this car is far ahead of many previous cars. In a 2016 report, General Motors said that each system had been evaluated step by step due to some failures. Another advanced feature of this car is that the car is given an extra battery so that it can be used in case of any sudden danger. The more integrated technology of the car is that the car has two data collection and adequate cybersecurity system. Cars work well for ride-sharing. Consumers are also given ample opportunity to use these technologies.
Car seat pattern
The cabin of the car is of symmetrical pattern, as it does not require more than one person to observe the data. The car usually has four seats. But since the car runs in self-mode, there is no need for a car with this particular pattern of seats. The touch screen tablet lets each passenger know how long they have traveled in the car. And every passenger can stop the car as he needs to or in an emergency, much like a train chain. Again the car itself can be stopped alone in its danger to design the car in such a way.
Stack prediction and stack maneuver
General Motors puts more emphasis on stack predictions and stack maneuvers as cars without steering makes complex decisions. Now it may seem that what are stack predictions and stack maneuvers? Prediction means we basically understand to make predictions. Self-driving cars require such mechanical predictions. An example of a stack prediction is when a car turns left and a pedestrian crosses the road, then by stack prediction the car can decide to move from one road to another very quickly. And stack maneuvering is the quickest way to make a decision.
A car without steering will share real-time
Vehicles without steering are usually tracked. And in the case of ride-sharing, the map of which road the car will go through is fixed in advance, everyone knows that. AV cars will be able to share real-time with each other when they run together i.e. in a fleet mode. General Motors calls this method ‘Fleet Learning Capability’. For example, if an AV stops on a road while driving or if there is a hint of an obstruction on the road, it will send a warning message to other AV vehicles as well. AV cars check their road about 10 times per second to see if there are any obstacles. And they do these tests through their own cameras, sensors, and networks.
Security and other laws
General Motor has filed an application with the Department of Transportation seeking that AV vehicles be allowed to run on the road in 2019. But according to the National Traffic and Safety Administration standard, a driver is definitely needed while driving. And if there is no driver, then the car manufacturers can claim their car is completely safe. Even if the AV cars are safe, who will be responsible if they ever get into an accident? Worry! If the application is accepted, General Motors will bring about 25,000 vehicles from the company to the market every year.
We got some very interesting information about cars without steering. Keep an eye on Prohori’s web page and Facebook page to get more interesting information like this. Install the prohori on the car. Stay safe and make sure the car is safe, thank you.
