A computer vision based navigation system for an autonomous vehicle model in a controlled environment using reinforcement learning
| Resumo: | [Excerpt] Technology has been responsible for shaping lives in ways that could never be imagined before. The development of the personal computer (PC) allowed people to have an accessible and intuitive interaction with the ever-evolving semiconductor technologies, presently it is an essential tool in people’s daily lives. The development of the internet allowed people to access information in ways that were very difficult to imagine before. These devices are so essential to human lives that people don’t appreciate them that much anymore, but there was a time when people had to live without them. For most, it is impossible to imagine a lifestyle without electricity but for a long time, humans relied only on fire as a source of energy. This is the power of Technology, something that today may seem impossible tomorrow may be just another basic part of our lives. The book ”AI - 2041” (Lee & Chen, 2021) describes 10 technologies that artificial intelligence (AI) will make available. One of the technologies described in the ”The Holly Driver” chapter is autonomous driving. In the mentioned chapter the author depicts a world in which autonomous vehicles are a part of people’s daily lives, in some parts of the world. In this world autonomous vehicles (AVs) allow people to live without the struggles of heavy traffic congestion which is a problem that has been around for many years and no solutions seem to have been found. This problem influences people’s moods and productivity daily. [...] |
