Autonomous Vehicles (AVs)
Technology is evolving to the point where robots and computers control most aspects of travel and mobility. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are self-driving cars or vehicles that drive without guidance from a driver. These advanced driving systems are designed to help passengers avoid hazardous roads, creating safe driving experiences without possible human error.
