An autonomous car is a vehicle capable of sensing its environment and performing driving functions with little or no human input. Such systems combine sensors, mapping, perception models, planning algorithms, control systems, and real-time decision-making to navigate roads and respond to conditions.
(Also self-driving car, robot car, and driverless car.) A vehicle that is capable of sensing its environment and moving with little or no human input. Autonomous cars rely on a combination of sensors, machine learning algorithms, and real-time data processing to navigate environments and make driving decisions without human input.
