Autoware
Autoware is an open-source software platform designed to enable autonomous (self-driving) vehicles. It provides the core data processing, decision-making, and control functions that allow a vehicle to understand its surroundings, navigate safely, and follow planned routes without human input. By integrating sensors like cameras, lidar, and radar, Autoware helps vehicles detect objects, interpret traffic signals, and make real-time driving decisions. It is used by developers and researchers to create, test, and improve self-driving vehicle systems, promoting collaboration and innovation in autonomous transportation technology.
