This project will assess the feasibility of providing a low cost hardware and software platform for provision ofcollision avoidance and situational awareness capability to autonomous vehicles. The system envisaged willcomprise of a set of licensable hardware designs together with the necessary software applications anddeveloper configuration tools, to enable non-experts to implement and configure a system suitable for theirpod or other autonomous vehicle. This will greatly lower the barrier to entry into the autonomous vehiclemarket, bringing the benefits of increased competition and lower price. This would be the first offering of itskind, and could be considered an innovative, possibly groundbreaking product if it proves feasible. The projectwill bring together some of AptCore's existing IP, function libraries and exampe applications, and build onthese, adding further capability and a user configuration tool to attempt to implement a situational awarenesssystem with collision avoidance suitable for a small electric vehicle e.g. a pod.

该项目将评估为自动驾驶车辆提供防撞和态势感知能力的低成本硬件和软件平台的可行性。设想的系统将包括一套可许可的硬件设计以及必要的软件应用程序和开发人员配置工具，使非专业人员能够实施和配置适合他们的pod或其他自动驾驶车辆的系统。这将大大降低进入自动驾驶汽车市场的门槛，带来竞争加剧和价格降低的好处。这将是同类产品的首个产品，如果被证明是可行的，可能会被认为是一个创新的，可能是突破性的产品。该项目将整合AptCore现有的一些IP、函数库和示例应用程序，并在此基础上进行构建，增加进一步的功能和用户配置工具，以尝试实现一个适合小型电动汽车（如吊舱）的防撞态势感知系统。
