Features like sensor, led camera, microprocessor, automatic action control system etc. have been given in this car.
The students of MIT World Peace University in Pune have created the country’s first driverless car. The students who made it say that the idea of building this car came in view of the accidents caused due to human error. At present, it is a prototype and after some other approvals, its commercial production will also start.
This car, made using Artificial Intelligence (AI), runs up to 40 kilometers on a single charge. The students who made it claim that this car is on the ‘Made in India’ concept.
This car has been prepared by the students of two departments of MIT College.
Autonomous vehicle level-3 technology in the car
The students of MIT College of Mechanical Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunication have together built this car. Yash Desai, associated with its construction, said that this autonomous vehicle is based on Level-3 and for the electric powertrain, he has used a BLDC electric motor and lithium iron phosphate battery.
This car is equipped with modern sensors and cameras
Yash Desai further said that the steering wheel, throttle and brakes of this driveless electric car have been controlled with many different artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms. Features like sensor, led camera, microprocessor, automatic action control system etc. have been given in this car.
The students have currently made a prototype car and it will be in commercial production in the coming times.
This car is fully charged in 4 hours
Yash Desai said, ‘This car is capable of traveling up to 40 kilometers in a single charge. Its battery takes 4 hours to get fully charged. The developers also claim that this vehicle can be used in many different sectors like transportation, agriculture, mining.
