THE FIVE LEVELS OF DRIVING AUTOMATION
Driver Assistance
The first level of automation includes adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist. These systems still require the driver to be in control.
Partial Automation
Level 2 automation assists in controlling speed and steering. Sensors monitor the distance between the vehicle and traffic ahead, while also providing steering assist by centering the vehicle within the lane.
Conditional Automation
Level 3 autonomous vehicles are capable of driving themselves, but only under ideal conditions and with limitations, such as limited-access divided highways at a certain speed. Although hands are off the wheel, drivers are still required behind the wheel.
High Automation
Level 4 autonomous vehicles can drive themselves in most environments and road conditions without human interactions but will be restricted to known use cases.
Full Automation
Level 5 autonomous vehicles should be able to monitor and maneuver through all road conditions and require no human interventions whatsoever, eliminating the need for a steering wheel and pedals.
