So today, to keep in line with the invention idea of self-driving cars and innovation, we are going to talk about the Cruise RP-1, which is a system that is an autopilot tool for the road.<\/p>\n<p>This invention works in a way that once the system is installed, a driver can simply press the Cruise button, which then allows the driver to travel on a highway without having to touch the steering wheel or foot pedals. This innovative invention ensures that the car stays in the lane and maintains a safe distance between itself and the car in front of it. Furthermore, the Cruise RP-1 also can stop and navigate a car through stop-and-go traffic.<\/p>\n<p>This invention will be fitted to nearly any vehicle. Additionally, there is a roof-mounted \u201csensor pod\u201d that will contain two cameras, a radar mechanism, GPS, inertial sensors and an on-board computer, as well as actuators that will control the car\u2019s steering, acceleration and braking actions. The Cruise RP-1 will use all of these software\/hardware combinations to constantly scan the road, in order to keep the car operating within a safe distance from other cars and the boundaries that are present in the driving environment.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the car system, the Cruise also will feature an iOS app that will allow the driver to see what the system can see in real-time. This will be done through Wi-Fi and the app will provide a graphic that will display the cars that are detected around the driver.<\/p>\n<p>As of right now, this invention is scheduled to be released for a limited rollout in California sometime in 2015!<\/p>\n<p><em>Copyright Davison 2014<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/2014\/06\/23\/cruise-hands-free-driving\/\">http:\/\/mashable.com\/2014\/06\/23\/cruise-hands-free-driving\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/cruise-autopilot-startup-2014-6\">http:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/cruise-autopilot-startup-2014-6<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is nothing like a relaxing Sunday drive with your windows down and the music on.
