Introduction
Companies dealing with technology have generally secured their place in the sector of an electrified, autonomous world and the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are generally hurrying to keep up with the technological advancements. Technological advancements have made this era a very fast era and this has paved a way for human advancements and development in the times to come.
The situation of Electric Vehicles
Electric vehicles are seen to replace their traditional internal combustion engines (ICE) with the use of completely hybrid, or fully electric motors, which are often powered by on-board batteries or hydrogen fuel cells. Electric vehicles have various advantages over ICE vehicles (ICEVs), that includes the use of cheaper fuels, lower maintenance costs, and less air pollution. Overall, electric vehicles are seen to benefit the generations.
The use of electric vehicles will also replace the constant demands for non-renewable sources of energy puke petrol, diesel, and so on, and also on the gas demands instead, these vehicles can use batteries for operating which would help the upcoming generations to benefit from the high use of technological betterments and will also safeguard the natural environment.
If Electric Vehicles become cheaper to buy and operate than most ICEVs, consumers will naturally be drawn toward the use of cars having electric models. Government incentives and regulations are already helping industries to close this gap.
Autonomous Vehicles
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) generally include a variety of vehicles including passenger cars, trucks, and drones, which generally rely on the use of artificial intelligence to operate with varying degrees of human input operations. AVs can effectively see the road and can respond to changing conditions or navigate various types of obstacles.
The ability of ABs to operate without human input depends on their level of sophistication. These are described below.
● Level 1 (Driver Assistance)
The driver controls most of the driving functions, but under certain conditions, the vehicle may also be able to adjust and control the speed or can even stay in a lane.
● Level 2 (Partial Automation)
The car can both accelerate and decelerate and can also perform the basic steering functions while driving. The driver is still responsible for directing the navigation like exiting a highway, changing lanes, or even turning on a new street.
● Level 3 (Conditional Automation)
The car can even monitor the driving environment and can accelerate, turn, or brake, but it still expects human intervention when it is alerted.
● Level 4 (High Automation)
The car can control all the driving aspects and can also operate without any type of intervention from the human end, but only under certain conditions.
● Level 5 (Full Automation)
The car is fully autonomous and it requires no human input to operate in all types of driving conditions.
Conclusion
Electric Vehicles and Autonomous Vehicles are expected to help us to step into a next-generation technology that will help every individual to benefit from these smart operating cars and also better the quality of life. These technological advancements are expected to transform the lives of every individual and these will also solve different human problems. This will ultimately lead to the development of human lives in the generations to come.
