Overview

This unit will introduce students to autonomous systems in general, autonomous vehicle (AV) system in particular, and its development. The unit will provide the fundamental system engineering knowledge of autonomous vehicle systems including the main building blocks, their design, integration and coordination to achieve the ultimate outcome of self-driving in a complex and uncertain environment. It will also cover and facilitate the learning in the further development of such systems through working and interacting with the actual autonomous vehicle and its testing and validation processes.

Learning outcomes

When you finish this unit, you should be able to:

  1. 1

    Describe the overall architecture of an autonomous vehicle (AV) system.

  2. 2

    Apply learned concepts to design algorithms for different functionalities of the AV system, such as localisation, perception, planning and control.

  3. 3

    Integrate and evaluate the AV system including testing and validation of algorithms and decision-making of the system.

  4. 4

    Critically appraise the different aspects of the AV system and its interactions in the urban networks.

  5. 5

    Effectively communicate findings, insights or professional recommendations to specialist and/or non-specialist audiences.

Workload and teaching

Minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per semester typically comprising a mixture of 4-6 hours of scheduled learning activities and 6-8 hours independent study per week. Scheduled activities may include a combination of teacher-directed learning, peer-directed learning and online engagement. Independent study may include associated readings, assessment and preparation for scheduled activities.
