Theories and Practices of Self-Driving Vehicles
About This Book
Self-driving vehicles are a rapidly growing area of research and expertise. Theories and Practice of Self-Driving Vehicles presents a comprehensive introduction to the technology of self driving vehicles across the three domains of perception, planning and control. The title systematically introduces vehicle systems from principles to practice, including basic knowledge of ROS programming, machine and deep learning, as well as basic modules such as environmental perception and sensor fusion. The book introduces advanced control algorithms as well as important areas of new research. This title offers engineers, technicians and students an accessible handbook to the entire stack of technology in a self-driving vehicle.
