Key Ingredients of Self-Driving Cars

Abstract--Over the past decade, many research articles have been published in the area of autonomous driving. However, most of them focus only on a specific technological area, such as visual environment perception, vehicle control, etc. Furthermore, due to fast advances in the self-driving car technology, such articles become obsolete very fast. Junior [7] software architecture has Over the past decade, with a number of autonomous system five parts: sensor interface, perception, navigation (planning technology breakthroughs being witnessed in the world, the and control), drive-by-wire interface (user interface and vehicle race to commercialize Autonomous Cars (ACs) has become interface) and global services. Boss [8] uses a threelayer fiercer than ever [1].
