Periodic Reporting for period 3 - UP-Drive (Automated Urban Parking and Driving)

Período documentado: 2018-07-01 hasta 2019-12-31

Resumen del contexto y de los objetivos generales del proyecto

The project UP-Drive aims at pushing the state of the art of automated driving and focuses on urban environments. Automotive experts expect the automated driving technology to radically improve the safety, comfort and affordability of individual mobility. Whilst many driver assistance systems - addressing mainly highway-like environments - are being introduced into the market and successively propagated from the premium car segment down to economy vehicles, automation of urban traffic remains an open research topic. The main goal of UP-Drive is therefore to push forward the perception, localization and reasoning abilities of autonomous vehicles. In the course of the project, we will build a prototype car system capable of driverless operation in complex urban environments. Our focus is placed on residential areas and speeds up to 30 km/h.

Trabajo realizado desde el comienzo del proyecto hasta el final del período abarcado por el informe y los principales resultados hasta la fecha

During the second period, the project has focused on building up the second vehicle platform and bringing closure to the first development and integration cycle in terms of environment perception, life-long localization and mapping, scene understanding and decision-making and navigation. Integration and testing of all relevant components have been successfully completed at a system level

Avances que van más allá del estado de la técnica e impacto potencial esperado (incluida la repercusión socioeconómica y las implicaciones sociales más amplias del proyecto hasta la fecha)

Project has already provided novel contributions to the fields of perception, localization, scene understanding and motion planning for automated vehicles. Further developments and contributions are expected in the final phase of the project. We believe that such contributions will eventually lead to turning the vision of automated vehicles into reality and thus to radical improvement of the safety, comfort and affordability of individual mobility.
