The auto industry is gradually shifting towards autonomous cars, and we have witnessed one innovative feature after another. For more than a decade, different auto manufacturers have made constant enhancements to vehicle systems to pursue the dream of safe and sound autonomous vehicles. Nissan ProPilot 2.0 is one step toward this dream as this feature enables ramp to ramp autonomous driving on highways. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here we have a complete guide on how ProPilot 2.0 works, its advantages and the technology behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHAT IS NISSAN PROPILOT 2.0?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nissan has made several safety and precision advancements in this 2.0 system over the first generation system launched back in 2016. The system allows hands-free driving on predesignated routes on roadways and highways. Drivers need to set their destination on a map and select the predefined route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, this advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) alerts the driver on highway exits on the designated route. The feature disengages automatically at the exit and the driver must take control manually upon exiting the highway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW NISSAN PROPILOT 2.0 WORKS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you are driving, you can select the predesignated route from the GPS navigation system. Upon activating the switch, Nissan ProPilot 2.0 will allow autonomous driving<\/a> in the centre of the selected lane and maintain a safe distance from the vehicles ahead. Besides, the system maintains a speed limit chosen by the driver. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system will alert the driver to take control of the steering wheel manually depending on the road and traffic conditions. Furthermore, if the system detects the preceding vehicle is moving at a slow speed, it alerts the driver through audio and visual guidance to control the vehicle manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driver can overtake the preceding vehicle by switching the lane and then operate the system back again. Moreover, the driver can initiate the lane change<\/a> by placing hands on the steering wheel and the vehicle will activate turn signals to change lanes once ProPilot 2.0 detects the possibility to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TECHNOLOGY CONFIGURATION TO OPERATE THE SYSTEM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 2.0 version is a more accurate and precise system with 3D maps, intelligent interface, GNSS and advanced alert system<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

ProPilot 2.0 is claimed to be the world’s first intelligent and automated highway driving system. That said, the assistance system uses high definition maps, precise GPS systems<\/a> and 360\u00b0 cameras. Let\u2019s give you a complete breakdown of how this advanced technology assists in autonomous driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HIGH-DEFINITION 3D MAPS<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The maps include high definition highway structures. For instance, every structure information is accurate to 1 centimetre, curvatures, slopes, lane markings, speed limits and sign boards. Moreover, this 3D map tracks accurate and precise road results for smooth steering grip and control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides, the camera allows the system to detect curvatures and slopes to adjust the car speed accordingly. These three-dimensional maps enable navigational high driving with complete information about all lanes and markings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

360-DEGREE SENSORS AND CAMERAS<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Different types of car sensors<\/a> and cameras work together to detect the lane markers, signs and surrounding vehicles. Combined 7 cameras, 5 radar sensors and 12 sonar sensors make this system work efficiently and precisely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ADVANCED AND INTELLIGENT INTERFACE<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Nissan ProPilot 2.0 provides real-time data and monitors the driver’s attention on the road continuously. Moreover, it has visual and audio alert systems proposing lane changing according to traffic conditions. The car driver can approve the lane changing by pushing a switch and placing the hands on the steering wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Apart from other systems working combined to achieve high precision, ProPilot 2.0 in Nissan has a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). That said, GNSS is a highly precise navigation system which has a margin of error of only 10 to 15 metres. However, it perfectly identifies the lane position making the autonomous highway driving safe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
