That was cool but can't function well in a country like Nigeria. Those Lagos boys will first break the front cameras and the car won't be able to see again....then accident follows cheesy cheesy cheesy

On the 2nd of feb 2018, Hyundai successfully completed trial runs in South Korea with the world’s first self-driving fuel cell vehicles.

They sent a convoy of five self-driving cars on a full 196 kilometers (118 miles) road trip from Seoul to Pyeongchang, South Korea, site of the 2018 Winter Olympics.

The convoy fitted with level 4 autonomous technology and 5G wifi consisted of five cars, three of which were modified Hyundai Nexo hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles and the other two were modified Genesis G80 sedans from the automaker's luxury brand.

The "cruise" and "set" buttons were pressed on each car by engineers before computers took over control.

The zero emissions Hyundai autonomous cars travelling at highway speeds of 62-68mph joined the motorway full of traffic, changed lanes, overtook other cars and even navigated through toll booths using South Korea's wireless payment system.

The cars use a series of Radar and Lidar sensors, cameras and a GPS locator to recognise nearby cars and also the width and position of objects like toll gates.

If the GPS signal goes down like in an underground tunnel,hi-tech external sensors on the exterior kick in to keep it on track.

All this tech requires huge super computers onboard but the ultra-efficient 500-mile hydrogen engine was able to deliver enough power for the systems and to drive the car, through a reaction between hydrogen and oxygen in the fuel cell stack, with the only tail pipe emission being water vapour.

Hyundai sees commercialization of Level 4 vehicles taking place in 2021, though only in what it calls "pilot smart cities," or locations tailored to be connected enough to make the implementation of autonomous tech easier. "Fully" autonomous driving would be at commercial level by 2030.

The Future self-driving cars don't have to be pure electric vehicles, and Hyundai is determined to prove it. What do you think?

Cool. Not far fetched after all. I did something similar in my final year project, a prototype though. I had a total of about 8 sensors (not Lidar though) of which my supervisor made me program every thing all by myself without any assistance from him. I even had indicators to signal when the vehicle was about changing lanes. Those of you who studied Electrical/Electronics Engineer in Nigerian university can attest to that. I’m glad it worked, but I didn’t even get an ‘A’ after all the time wasted.

Meanwhile, we're busy here having pointless religious and trabalist conflicts that won't help our country or us as individuals in any way. People's hearts these days dey like stone aswer.

this is awesome, just like my final year project that's was "hybrid technology in power generation in Nigeria (commingling of gas turbine to solid- oxide fuel cell" and it was wahoo! but i need someone to take me to Europe or Asia for M.Eng in that.

some people think Nigeria don't have the mental capacity to produce vehicles with recent trends in manufacturing. that's a big lie. we have the mind. we have the brain. we have the people (u included).
what's lacking is the government. if u were born mid 19th century(buhari,tinubu,OBJ) u can't think like those born late 19th century (the youths). am sure buhari don't even know about this recent trend in automobile industries.
its up to us to elect someone that is younger, vibrant and a technophile. someone who is not against technology advancement. who isn't afraid of nuclear energy which is more efficient than gas powered turbine energies.

the future lies in our hands.
the future lies in our PVC.

Amazing how the world is moving forward and trying to get their dependency off oil. It is my solemn prayer that we sit up and produce for ourselves.
