SIMAK UI 2010 Bahasa Inggris Kode Soal 307 Doc. Name: SIMAKUI2010ING307 Doc. Version : 2015-02| This text is for questions 41 to 45 The thought of a car a truck that can drive itself is at once both exciting and frightening Autonomous vehicle navigation. as the technology is known, may make life more convenient if it allows people to kick back and enjoy a good bock or movie while their cars guide themself through rush hour traffic - hour traffic. However, what happens if it start to rain or if traffic suddenly picks up? If the technology is to work at all it will have to be completely safe on all road, under all speeds and in all weather. There in line the challenge: if cars and trucks are to drive autonomously. they will need futuristic sensor and advanced computing capabilities to respond to ever - changing road condition. Perhaps the most extreme example of ever - changing condition is a war zone, where roads may be reduced to rubble and vehicles are natural target of attack. Rolling out fleet of sell - navigating vehicles for the military is enticing idea because it could keep thousands of troops out of harm's way. Nevertheless, will it be possible for these vehicles to operate in war zone?. This question was the inspiration for a recent Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) contest aimed at spurring the development of such tehcnologies. Held at a former air force be in Victorville, Calf, in late 2007, the DARPA Urban Challenge offered a $5,5 million purse to competitors who could design the fastest and safest vehicles that could traverse a 60 mile urban course in moving in less than six hours. The contestant vehicles were unmanned and had to complete a simulated military supply mission, maneuvering through a mock city environment, avoiding obstacle: merging into moving traffic, navigating traffic circles, and negotiating interactions - all while conforming to California driving rules. Of the 89 international teams halaman 1 that entered the challenge, only six finished in the allowed time. Wende Zhang of General Motors was part of the team that designed the winning vehicle, which finished with the fastest time an average speed of approximately 13 miles per hour. The GM team drew upon existing technology already offered in some of their vehicles that can assist in parking of detect lane markers and trigger alarms if the driver are coming too close to the shoulder of the road. For the DARPA challenge, they developed a more sophisticated package of sensors that included GPS coupled with a camera and a laser - ranging UDAR system to guide and correct the vehicle’s route, which helped them win the challenge. Though the won, people should not look for robotic chauffeurs immediately. The technology must prove reliable in many deferent road weather and lighting condition. Still, says Zhang, a commercially - viable autonmous driving product may be available in the next dace. 41.
