Self-driving cars are no longer a distant dream \u2013 they are poised to become a reality on British roads as early as next year.<\/h2>\n

This transformative technology promises to change how we travel, offering both convenience and enhanced safety. However, the road to fully autonomous vehicles is paved with challenges, prompting researchers worldwide to develop innovative solutions.<\/p>\n

One such breakthrough is RealMotion, a pioneering motion forecasting framework<\/a> developed by University of Surrey and Fudan University researchers that could redefine the capabilities of autonomous cars.<\/p>\n

Dr Xiatian Zhu, senior lecturer at the\u00a0Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing\u00a0and the\u00a0Insitute for People-Centred AI\u00a0at the University of Surrey and co-author of the study, explained: “Driverless cars are no longer a futuristic dream.<\/p>\n

“Robotaxis are already operating in parts of the USA and China, and self-driving vehicles are expected to be on UK roads as early as next year. However, the real question on everyone’s mind is: how safe are they?<\/p>\n

“While AI operates differently from human drivers, there are still challenges to overcome. That’s why we developed RealMotion \u2013 to equip the algorithm with not only real-time data but also the ability to integrate historical context in space and time, enabling more accurate and reliable decision-making for safer autonomous navigation.”<\/p>\n

The promise of self-driving cars<\/h3>\n

Self-driving cars represent a major leap forward in transportation. By using advanced AI systems, sensors, and real-time data, these vehicles can navigate roads, detect obstacles, and make split-second decisions without human intervention.<\/p>\n

The potential benefits of autonomous vehicles are immense<\/a>:<\/p>\n
