Drive Without Driver: Sophisticated Technology From Audi

Kanjenk Automotive - Drive Without Driver: Sophisticated Technology From Audi, car manufacturer Audi is unlikely to play in developing the technology car without a driver. Google is different from the car without the driver is still limited in terms of speed, especially for a car without a driver of the Audi actually made could drive at high speed.

The car without the driver made a prototype coded Audi RS 7. Name car engine that uses a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that is unique because it is like a human name of 'Robby'. This car is actually an improved version of the previous-generation prototype RS 7 nicknamed 'Bobby'.

Recently, a car without a driver nicknamed 'Robby' is undergoing trials at Sonoma Raceway, located in California. From the results of testing is known that the car is targeted to be the vehicles of the future could be driving in high speed, even faster than most sports cars are still driven by humans.

This is not trivial, because to be driving in high speed generally required considerable skill of the people who drive cars. While in this case, Audi can do so only by relying on technology that intelligently make a car think themselves to complete the entire route in

Technicians who are behind the development of the car without a driver's Audi said that the weight 'Robby' away up to 400 kg lighter than the previous model, 'Bobby'. With the trimming weight, consequently 'Robby' claimed to have power that is much faster than the older brother. As an illustration, 'Bobby' ever tested in Hockenheim circuit - Germany and got the result that the prototype RS 7 cars that can drive independently until scoring a speed of about 149 miles / hour!

The plan, a car without a driver technology embedded in 'Robby' that will soon be applied to the newest generation of the Audi A8. It's just that consumers are not going to get the technology that actually makes the car so full autonomous (stand-alone), but only gets a portion of the existing technologies.

One of the reasons why the Audi A8, which is planned to be released in 2017 was not received because the technology is still the need for a full in-depth development to create technology-made Audi cars without a driver to be more perfect.

The car without a driver technology that will be embedded in the Audi A8 was given the name 'piloted Technology Driving'. There is still no information related to the details of Audi technology that one, but reportedly piloted Driving Technology basically have the intelligence to control the vehicle in certain situations. If parsed deeper, certain situations in question here consists of: 'when facing congestion' and 'when you want to park the car'.

Technology Audi To Face Loss

This is part of the technology Audi car without a driver named: 'Traffic Jam Pilot'. With this technology, the car can move themselves while in the middle of highway congestion. So the car owners no longer need to bother to control the steering wheel, because the car will run and perform its own braking at a speed of 37 miles per hour.

Technology Audi To Parking

Audi technology named 'Parking Pilot' is also part of the intelligent system belongs to Audi's car without a driver that will be embedded in the Audi A8. The goal is clear: to facilitate its owner because the car can be parked itself by using a remote control or a smartphone application. This is not an unfamiliar technology, because other luxury car manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW also has long been developing similar technology.

Key technology Audi car without a driver on top is using essential component consisting of cameras, sensors and laser placed on several sides of the car to help the system make predictions and decisions.

Considering the price of the components that accompany it is quite expensive, then certainly the price of the Audi A8 which already carries most of the car without a driver technology that Audi will also chimed expensive.
