MS Design: Autonomous Cars

INVESTIGATE: Research Prompts:

1. Define: Autonomous vehicle ​(in your own words)
2. State at least 2 specific examples of autonomous vehicles in use today? Include your sources. ​This can be any form of an autonomous vehicle, it does not need to be a self-driving consumer car.
3. Identify at least 2 real world purposes for autonomous vehicles ​
4. Outline the 6 levels of driving automation
5. Outline the 3 main types of sensors that autonomous vehicles use to help them navigate ​
   1. Briefly explain how these sensors work
   2. Provide an average cost estimate for these types of sensors.
   3. Is this cost accessible to all members of society easily? Explain why or why not.
