Automation Categories:
In the United States, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) classifies vehicle automation technologies into below four categories:
Level 0: No automation. This is defined as human control vehicle. In other words, human driver is responsible controlling the vehicle at all times.
Level 1: Specific function. One or more controls of the vehicle are automated. For example, automatic braking system that uses radar, video, infrared ranges sensors to detect the other vehicles or obstacles and apply the brakes to slow down and stop the vehicle without driver intervention when there is dangerous. Another example is, Electronic stability control (ESC) detects the loss steering control and apply the brakes to stop the vehicle from skidding.
Level 2: Combined function. The combination of two or more controls is automated. The example is combined automation of adaptive cruise control and lane keeping system. Adaptive cruise control system adjusts the vehicle speed when the vehicle goes close to another vehicle, and lane keeping system warns the driver when the vehicle started moving out of the lane without driver’s input.
Level 3: Limited self-driving. The limited functions of the vehicle are automated and the vehicle can drive itself.
