Software, Data, and Ethics Behind Autonomous Vehicles Lionbridge AI

The first autonomous vehicles were built in the 1980s and since then, major companies and research organizations have started developing prototype autonomous vehicles: General Motors, Bosch, Nissan, Audi, Volvo, Oxford University, Google, and more. Recent car models are equipped with cruise control features that follow road markings and automatically adjust speed to maintain a proper distance between vehicles in the same lane. An autonomous vehicle must be competent in a wide range of machine learning processes before it can drive safely. Multi-step AI systems allow autonomous vehicles to process image and video data in real time and safely coordinate with other vehicles on the road. We as humans have no problem recognizing other vehicles, pedestrians, trees, road signs, and other objects when we're driving.
