Self-Driving Car Levels Explained

The Society of Automotive Engineers uses six different levels to describe the extent to which a car is "self-driving" - but what's the point of this system, and what are the differences between the levels?





Intro Theme: Showdown by F.O.O.L from Monstercat - Best of 2016

[Idan-Koren-Israeli]

That was a great video!
I would like to watch a future Techquickie video on how this AI works...

[ThowanPlays]

I'd love to see how the AI inside of a self driving car works. That sounds like a lot of fun.

[CompleteAnimation]

That thing on Linus' shirt... It bothered me this entire video.

[Ijazaslam]

My car doesn't even have cruise control or sensors, level -1 :(

[tobypotter]

I imagine one day car insurance companies will discriminate against manual drivers because AI cars will be safer.

[Cheeky_Goose]

I really appreciated that animation at 5:53 It's refreshing seeing humans finally respecting us as beings.

[samboggs]

so Waymo is waymo advanced than the others?

[skylerjackson]

A video on self driving AI, as well as neural networks would be cool

[sebastiane]

And suddenly the trolley problem becomes real: shoud a level 5 car kill it's "driver" to save (more) other people when an accident can't be avoided?

[billycasimir]

6:15 Linus realizes he has something on his shirt 😂😂😂

[sacred_g]

I don't need a self driving car, I just need to be able to drive my car with a PS4 controller. That would without a doubt increase my reaction times and overall comfort while driving.

[dream.machine]

This is the best detailed video Self Driving Car video I've ever seen from you Linus! Awesome informative video!

[poldelepel]

Level 5 is the fastest way to die while having sex :D

[rap]

Hey Linus! I would definitely like to see a video explaining the workings of this type of AI.
Thanks for all your hard work,
Richard

[Durch-Laucht]

Wanna go autonomous driving?
Go by train.. xD

[jamaldecember]

TechQuickie is a really great idea. Keep up the good work Linus.

[shubham-pawar]

So a level 5 car has no steering wheel and no way for human to control it.
But what if the car has an accident and kills say people on the road then who is responsive the driver the car company or the pedestrian.
🤔

[theplasmapro]

Wait, did they show their license plates?

[allaroundlp]

That's a nice video. Too bad for me that it's a year after I finished my thesis work for school about "transportation with alternative (renewable) energies". It the content of this video probably would have been a great addition to my sections about electronic cars and Tesla. But at least I was able to use your videos about batteries and such.
Keep on making great content like that!
(the video about the AI in a self-driving car would be cool!)

[iHARTZwatrmelon]

yes more videos on this topic loved the vid linus !!!
