Self-driving cars, also known as autonomous vehicles or wheeled mobile vehicles, are unmanned ground vehicles that can perceive and understand their surrounding environment and control their own movement to achieve the driving level of a human driver.
Self-driving cars are becoming an increasingly popular topic, subtly changing the way we live, work, and play. The core of self-driving technology can be summarized in the following three parts:
#Perception
Surrounding environment - via computer vision and sensors
#calculate
Path calculation - localization, path planning, obstacle avoidance
#implement
Actuators (Effectives) - Acceleration, Braking, Steering
One core component:
1. Computer vision: Understanding the world around us through camera images.
2. Sensor integration: Integrating data from other sensors such as lasers and radars to gain a deeper understanding of our surroundings.
3. Positioning: As long as we have a deep understanding of the world around us, we can use positioning to accurately determine our location and environment.
4. Route planning: Mapping world routes to help us get to where we want to go.
5. Control: How should we turn the steering wheel, press the accelerator, and press the brake to make the car travel along the track we established during path planning?
The Dongtian Core 6th Generation Embedded Industrial PC DTB-3216-Q170 focuses on the field of autonomous driving and intelligent transportation. It features a compact structure, fine workmanship, and smooth manufacturing process, making its debut in the spotlight.
This machine uses the Intel Q170 chipset, supports wide temperature and voltage operation, and is unaffected by complex environments. It features 6 chipsets, three Intel Gigabit Ethernet ports and COM ports, 8 USB ports, 2 PCIe x8 slots, and supports independent triple display via DVI/VGA/2DP. Optional MezIO expansion modules can further provide 11 COM ports, 10 GbE ports, 8 USB 3.0 ports, 32 DIO ports, or ignition power control system I/O, facilitating connection to devices such as cameras and controllers for more accurate data acquisition and more efficient computing.
