    Driver  Assisting  Vehicles: The development of autonomous vehicles will revolutionise the
                       transportation system. Waymo, after many test drives, launched  its first public  riding  service.
                       Waymo’s AI software crunches data from the vehicle's
                       LiDAR, camera,  GPS and cloud services to produce
                       control signals that operate the driverless vehicle.
                       Advanced  deep  learning  algorithms can  accurately
                       predict what objects in the vehicle's vicinity are likely to
                       be, making it safe. Tesla, which makes  self-driving cars,
                       uses AI to implement computer vision, image detection
                       and deep learning to make cars automatically detect
                       objects and drive without human intervention.

                        Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Motors, says "Tesla will have fully self-driving cars ready by the end of the year
                       and a "robo taxi" version—one that can ferry passengers without anyone behind the wheel—ready for
                       the streets next year."

                                                                      Virtual  Reality  (VR): Virtual Reality (VR) is a
                                                                    cutting-edge  technology  that creates  a computer-
                                                                    generated 3D environment, immersing users in a
                                                                    virtual world that appears real.  By using  interactive
                                                                    hardware and software, VR allows users to engage with
                                                                    this environment in realistic ways, often involving sight,
                                                                    sound and sometimes touch.
                         A key feature of VR is computer vision, a popular AI technology that tracks motion using camera
                       inputs. This enables the virtual environment to blend seamlessly with the user’s viewpoint, enhancing
                       the realism of the experience. The simplest form of VR is a 3D image that responds interactively to
                       user actions, such as moving the mouse or using VR controllers.

                         VR is widely used in entertainment, especially in gaming and movies, where it provides an immersive
                       experience. However, VR's potential extends beyond entertainment. In academic fields like History
                       and Geography, VR can transport students back in time or place, helping to generate interest and
                       provide deeper learning experiences. Some applications of VR include Architecture, Sports, Medicine,
                       Entertainment etc.

                         Augmented  Reality  (AR):  Augmented  Reality  (AR)  is
                       a dynamic technology  that enhances our real-world
                       environment by adding virtual elements. Unlike Virtual
                       Reality, which immerses  users in a completely virtual
                       world, AR overlays virtual objects onto the physical world,
                       creating a more engaging experience.
                         AR is widely  used  in applications  like smartphones
                       with  GPS and military training  for object and gesture
                       recognition. With the significant growth of AR development tools, AI is expected to play a key role in
                       shaping future AR applications.

                                                                                            Pioneers in the Field of AI  19
