There are two systems in an autonomous vehicle that use a variety of sensors to scan the vehicle’s surroundings: the Positioning System and the Obstacle Detection and Tracking System (ODTS). Although they provide the vehicle with information, these systems do not make...
An autonomous vehicle relies on two systems to understand its surroundings; the Positioning System and the Obstacle Detection and Tracking System (ODTS). Having discussed positioning in an earlier article, we’ll now focus on ODTS. The two systems share sensors, as...
Positioning and obstacle detection are the two foundations of autonomous driving. All driving relies on positioning. If a vehicle doesn’t know its location, it can’t place itself on a map or know where the road or the planned route goes. Without location, driving...
The team behind Sensible 4’s self-driving shuttle bus GACHA wins the Finnish engineering prize for 2020. The prize, worth €30,000 is awarded each year to a person or group for the most creative idea that has contributed to Finnish engineering. Sensible 4...
In the coming years, autonomous driving applications will become increasingly common in public transport. Self-driving electric shuttle buses will be driving in areas where passenger numbers aren’t large enough to support rail connections, but population density still...
