Self Driving Car
Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject SummaryA Self-Driving Car is a vehicle that is capable of sensing its environment and moving safely with little or no human input. Self-driving cars combine a variety of sensors and cameras to perceive their surroundings.
We are making a car(prototype) which will resemble the "practical self driving cars". This car will be capable of following the lanes and understanding the traffic signals.
The technology of Machine Learning is used in which first we make our models and then we train them on large data of test images in order to train them. After proper training, the car will be able to follow any random lanes and understand signals.
In our project, we are making a prototype(toy car) which will resemble some of the functioning of practical self-driving car.
Our project is going to use the two features of this technology.
Our objective is to making a self-driving car using Image processing and Machine-Learning algorithms that is capable to :
Project Implementation Method•Detect and follow the road lanes.
•Detect the traffic signals and respond accordingly.
A proper track will be made to test and run the prototype car.
- Input from the camera will be passed to the Jetson Nano.
- Jetson Nano is acting as a MIND of this project. Different Machine Learning Algorithms are running on board which will decide the reaction of the vehicle by rotating the servo and DC motors.
- Servo motor is for Steering the car.
- Motor Diver will take commands form the Nano and move the DC motors.
- DC motor is for Moving the car.
Jetson nano is the latest mini computer released by NVIDIA in March 2019. This board is capable of carrying multiple parallel Neural Networks at a same time. This board has 128 cores of GPU and is much much better than other common processors in the market.
Benefits of the Project- This project is a Prove of Concept of this new "Automated Vehicles Hype" world wide.
- After this project, we will be ready to dip into and play our role as a Pakistani in this emerging technology.
- As for as we know, It is the only project of its type currently in Pakistan. We are hoping that this project will start a new trend in Pakistan and will act as a 'guide' for other students who want to perse in AI and Robotics.
- Mostly the Self-Driving Cars are electric driven. As we know that this is the era of Electric Vehicles and AI, So this project is truly based on cutting edge technologies of 5th industrial revolution.
- This project can act as a major break through for introducing Self Driving Cars in Pakistan.
- In general, Self Driving Cars have numerous advantages for Human Race and we are trying to take part in it.
This project is a PROVE OF CONCEPT.
We will test different models by analyzing there speed and accuracy and will choose the best for our case.
The output will be a car that can run on any type of Lanes accurately and can understand and respond to different traffic signals by using MACHINE LEARNING and Artificial Intelligence.
