Abstract:

Automated vehicles (AVs)—a combination of technologies and sensors that enable vehicles to operate with limited or no driver input—are rapidly moving from science fiction to real-world application. Low-level, limited function AV technologies are already available on new vehicles today, and high-level AVs may be just around the corner. On-road vehicle testing is currently underway and legal in several states, and some industry experts expect high-level AVs to be available as soon as 2020.
