LOS ANGELES — A future in which self-driving vehicles travel our roads is edging closer as automakers introduce an ever-increasing range of innovations to their cars.
Today’s cars are smarter than ever and some are capable of driving by themselves for long stretches, the Globe and Mail reported.
The use of radar, sonar and camera technology has seen cars make great advances in recent years, with even standard models now offering assistance to help drivers stay in their lane, avoid accidents and warn of blind-spot obstacles.
Some cars, like the BMW 7 Series can even be parked from outside the vehicle, simply by pressing a key fob.
This animation explains how the technology present in today’s cars is paving the way for a future where fully autonomous self-driving cars are a reality.
