Cooperative Autonomous Driving at the Intelligent Control Systems Laboratory

8 1094-7167/03/$17.00 © 2003 IEEE IEEE INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS believe is the first on-road demonstration of autonomous passenger vehicles performing cooperative passing and traversal of unsignalized intersections. (Unsignalized intersections have no traffic lights, stop signs, or yield signs to control traffic flow.) This demonstration mated ICSL’s communication and collaborative decision-making subsystems with IMARA’s experimental vehicle platforms, creating autonomous vehicles capable of real-time cooperation in real-world applications (see Figure 1).
