The development of autonomous vehicles represents a major technological breakthrough, revolutionizing mobility through the integration of advanced technologies at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), mechatronics and control sciences. This heralds a new era of disruptive innovation for the automotive and aerospace industries.
Autonomous Vehicles offers an in-depth, structured analysis of the scientific and technical challenges associated with autonomy, while also addressing the industrial, societal, legal and safety issues specific to the automotive and aerospace sectors. This book presents the key functions of automated driving and piloting, sensor technologies and their role in environmental perception, as well as data processing and exploitation strategies based on conventional algorithmic approaches and techniques derived from AI.
This detailed book offers concrete examples from industrial use cases, offering a rigorous and up-to-date overview of a rapidly changing field, grounded in close collaboration between academia and industry.
