1 Affordable and Reliable Autonomous Driving Through Modular Design
1.1 Introduction
In recent years, autonomous driving has become quite a popular topic in the research community as well as in industry, and even in the press, but besides the fact that it is exciting and revolutionary, why should we deploy autonomous vehicles? One reason is that ridesharing using clean-energy autonomous vehicles will completely revolutionize the transportation industry by reducing pollution and traffic problems, by improving safety, and by making our economy more efficient.
More specifically and starting with pollution reduction: there are about 260 million cars in the US today. If we were to convert all cars to clean-energy cars, we would reduce annual carbon emissions by 800 million tons, which would account for 13.3% of the US commitment to the Paris Agreement [1]. Also, with near-perfect scheduling, if ridesharing autonomous СКАЧАТЬ
