This is what needs to happen to get more autonomous vehicles safely on the road.
, allows for conditional automation . The conditions at this stage are specific and extremely limited; the outside environment must be clear and bright, the route must have been previously mapped by Mercedes, the car must be going less than 40 mph and there must be a car in front of the Mercedes.
A Level Four vehicle, such as a robotaxi, is highly automated and requires no human interaction. It runs on specific routes and is programmed to simply stop itself if the vehicle runs into any problems. And a Level Five autonomous system would be that"better than human" model that Musk is always promising.For a system to reach Level Three autonomy, it needs to have a baked-in redundancy in the event that the main system fails.
In order for an automated system to move away from Level Two, there would need to be a sensory backup. "You need to have a sensor that can back the car, that can provide backup to the camera," Keilaf said."The only sensor that is capable of seeing sufficient resolution and range etc. is the lidar; in order to move away the driver you need to add a lidar."
