Abstract:
This in-depth exploration delves into the dynamic evolution and transformative impact of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on the realm of transportation. Tracing the historical trajectory of AVs, the study meticulously highlights pivotal milestones and contextualizes their profound significance in reshaping the landscape of mobility. The investigation progresses to scrutinize the intricate realm of navigation and communication technologies that underpin the functioning of AVs. An in-depth analysis unfolds, covering the symbiotic relationship between GPS, sensor fusion, and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication. The study navigates through the complex legal frameworks governing AVs, addressing challenges related to liability and safety. The exploration extends to the far-reaching impacts of AVs on transportation ecosystems, encompassing infrastructure upgrades, integration with smart city initiatives, and the propagation of sustainable practices. The study concludes by envisioning a future where AVs stand at the forefront of transportation innovation, ushering in a new era of mobility and reshaping urban landscapes.
