Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the cornerstone of modern autonomous vehicles, enabling them to perceive, decide, and navigate in complex environments. This lesson focuses on how AI algorithms are integrated into self-driving cars.

Key Implementations:

  • Convolutional Neural Networks: These are the brains behind autonomous vehicles that process data from various sensors to recognize objects, interpret traffic signs, and improve driving decisions over time.

  • Data Processing: Autonomous vehicles continuously collect and process data to understand their surroundings and make real-time driving decisions.

  • Safety Testing: AI is utilized to simulate real-world conditions for the safety testing of autonomous vehicles.
