Introducing you to the Autonomous Vehicle:
What is an Autonomous Vehicle?
An autonomous vehicle, or a driverless
vehicle, is one that is able to operate itself and perform necessary
functions without any human intervention. In particular, it is a vehicle
that can drive itself from a starting point to a predetermined
destination in “autopilot” mode. As we will see these cars use various
in-vehicle technologies and sensors, including adaptive cruise control,
active steering (steer by wire), anti-lock braking systems (brake by
wire), GPS navigation technology, lasers and radar. Lets Experience an Autonomous Vehicle
Most of us have never seen or been inside of a autonomous vehicle.
The following is an promo piece for Waymo one of the companies that is offering autonomous vehicle trips: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh5Yo6HN5b2Hco70HosIzZA

Final Report – Implementation of Solution and Feasibility Analysis
Content
Requirements (in no specific order):
Check
what you are missing from the feedback of previous assignments, point by
point, and implement it in the final report. Only include missing parts
from before. No copy/paste repeat of any content already submitted
1-page
intro: again, remind me of the
project/company/need/problem/solution
Goals:
how does your final solution
meet the original goals presented in your proposal
Finalize
the solution: its specs, design,
pilot, full implementation, functionality, features, etc.
Procedure:
show the procedures/method you
performed to come up with the final solution. You may need to present
science/theory here with reference to MEM content and/or external
APA-cited references.
Process: show the original process (if you must have one) as it was
before May and the new process as it is in December; highlight the
sections where you introduced changes/modifications. Link blocks in the
process to IDs in your master WBS. If you didn’t have a master WBS with
IDs, build one.
Feasibility
analysis: of the solution in full
detail and figures, taking into account all aspects of opex/capex expenses
Final
Gantt chart: outlining tasks performed over
the last 8 months, and what will happen (if any) in the next while to
reach the ultimate results of your proposal. Yes, some of you have
projects that will go on after the final report submission date. This
section is very important and should be explained in full detail. Gantt
chart tasks should match IDs of what you presented in your master WBS.
Final
budget of all amounts spent up to
date, and the amount remaining to be spent to meet the needs of the full
implementation of the proposed solution (spending should match the task
IDs in your master WBS). Some of you will have implemented the complete
solution by end of term, and in this case, the budget is final.
Whereas some of you are still in the pilot stage, in which case, you need
to show a budget with columns; one for up-to-date spending and another for
the remaining amounts to be spent until all goals are achieved. All items
need to be explained.
Quotations:
If there are any
equipment/services purchased in your solution/budget, formal quotations
need to be provided.
Stakeholder

stakeholders do? The contributions should reference IDs for tasks in your
master WBS. If you don’t have a master WBS with IDs, build one
