DTM season finale, Audi demonstrated &#8216;piloted&#8217; driving with a lap on the Grand Prix track in Hockenheim \u2013 at racing speed, without a driver, taking just over two minutes. <\/p>\n<p>For orientation on this track run, the pioneering technology used specially corrected GPS signals transmitted to the car by WiFi to the automotive standard and redundantly via high-frequency radio. Alongside this, 3D cameras in the car filmed the track, and a computer program compared the cameras\u2019 image information against data stored on board for centimetre-accurate orientation. <\/p>\n<p>Piloted driving test results are continually fed into Audi&#8217;s development programme to help with automatic avoidance functions in critical driving situations, for example. <\/p>\n<p>So options fitted on the standard road car pictured include Audi side assist, Audi active lane assist, and adaptive cruise control with Stop&#038;Go function including Audi pre sense front, so it could almost do what the driverless car achieved.
