AI is changing things, and it is about to change the way you drive, too. The following are a few ways AI will revolutionize the road for you and fellow drivers.
Safer Night Driving
A lot of people work at night or simply like to go out at night. Driving at night can be challenging for people, especially if you live in an area where deer run across the highway. AI is diminishing these types of dangers with things like an infrared deer detector for cars.
The system uses infrared information to help you see deer from far away at night. The AI system can tell you how far the deer is so that you have enough time to act and don’t put yourself or the animal in danger. These types of detectors can detect other lifeforms even human beings.
Changing Bad Driving
A lot of accidents occur because of human error. Most of the time, these errors are innocent enough, but they could hurt you or fellow drivers. AI is here to help by making the road a little safer for everyone. There are many devices you can install in your vehicle to help you be a bit safer.
Some of these devices help you brake if you are getting too close to another vehicle, while other devices warn you if there’s a vehicle in your blind spot. Some sensors are installed on your vehicle to help keep you in your lane; they even help guide your vehicle back into your lane if it detects any drifting. All of this is possible because AI analyzes the data collected from the installed sensors to help make you a better driver.
Predicting Failure
Just like sensors are being used by AI to help prevent accidents, sensors are being created to prevent machine failure. A vehicle can fail at any time, and this leads to a big headache, but that may not be a problem any longer. AI is using sensors within a vehicle to predict failures before they happen.
The sensors gather data from your vehicle’s operation, which is analyzed promptly. The moment something doesn’t go right, or a pattern changes, is the moment your system will signal a problem. This is going to make repairs much easier to take care of by reducing headaches and repair costs as well. Your mechanic won’t have to spend so much time looking for a problem with a system like this.
Smart Comfort
Comfort is another thing that is going to change thanks to AI. Drivers are going to be able to enjoy optimal temperature, the right lighting, and the right music, thanks to AI. There are going to be sensors within the vehicle that can monitor your overall state of comfort.
When the data tells AI that you aren’t feeling as comfortable as you should, then it’ll change the environment for you. This should make your ride comfortable and fun. It should also make it easier to pay attention to the road, and that helps you stay safe. Some of these sensors can even detect when you are feeling drowsy. AI can use this device to keep you alert, which is good for everyone.
Self-Driving Car
Self-driving vehicles are on their way. There are several companies testing models that can drive on their own, and some of the biggest automakers out there are already investing big in self-driving vehicles. Once these vehicles are perfected and available, then driving is going to change forever for most people.
Car ownership may no longer be such a big deal; maybe people will simply use ridesharing apps to help them get around. Less car ownership could end up reducing traffic, which is good for those who are trying to be eco-conscious. Self-driving vehicles are probably going to be less prone to accidents, and that could make driving safer for all. This could end up making it easier for traffic officers to keep the roads safe.
These are just some ways AI is going to end up changing the way you drive. Some of these changes you can experience now. There’s a few you won’t see just yet, but be patient because AI continues to evolve.
