THE 5 LEVELS OF AUTONOMOUS DRIVING

- — Nadeem Shakir

Level 1: Driver Assistance (Hands On). Driver and AI share control of the function.

Level 2: Partial Automation (Hands Off). AI can fully control a specific function wherein driver is required to monitor and intervene as and when required.

Level 3: Conditiona­l Automation (Eyes Off). Drivers can divert their attention, however, they are still required to intervene when called upon by AI to do so.

Level 4: High Automation (Mind Off). Driver can safely stay away from the driver’s seat. Driver is only required to intervene during special circumstan­ces.

Level 5: Full Automation. No human interventi­on is required.
