Pakistan’s first self-driving car is set to launch in just six months. This remarkable vehicle is being developed by talented students at NED University. It will be the first fully autonomous car in Pakistan, marking a breakthrough in AI-powered technology.
The project is being led by the National Centre for Artificial Intelligence (NCAI). These students are combining cutting-edge AI tools with practical engineering to create a self-driving car that does not need human intervention. The team has already achieved impressive milestones, including the development of a virtual driving system.
The car is being built from an imported Chinese electric model. The team is modifying it to make it fully autonomous. They are integrating advanced AI technologies to ensure the car can navigate safely and smoothly on the roads. This technology is a huge step forward for Pakistan.
Right now, no other institution in Pakistan is developing a similar project. NED University’s efforts are placing it at the forefront of autonomous vehicle development in the country. This project has the potential to revolutionize the transportation sector in Pakistan.
The NED University engineers are focused on several key features. They are working on object detection, lane recognition, and speed limit detection. Additionally, they are developing traffic signal recognition and steering control systems. With these features, the car will be able to navigate roads safely and efficiently.
Associate Professor Dr. Muhammad Khurram, the Project Director, is confident that the car will be ready for testing in just six months. He says, “We are close to achieving real-time vehicle control. Our engineers have made significant progress in data control and software development, and we are confident that within the next six months, we will be able to drive this car on NED’s roads.”
One of the biggest achievements so far is the completion of the car’s mapping system. The team is now working on improving the AI algorithms that will guide the car. Research students Inzamam and Aleema are excited about integrating robotics technology into the car. They believe this combination will make the vehicle even smarter and safer.
Through virtual simulations, the team has made great progress. They have achieved impressive results with real-time vehicle control. Now, they are fine-tuning the system to handle real-world driving situations. They are working hard to ensure the car can drive autonomously without any human input.
This project is not just about creating a car. It is about pushing the boundaries of AI in transportation. Once the car is launched, it will set a new standard for innovation in Pakistan’s tech sector. The development of Pakistan’s first self-driving car will be a game-changer for the country’s automobile industry.
With each step, the NED University team is moving closer to their goal. They are dedicated to making this self-driving car a reality. In six months, we may see a whole new era of autonomous vehicles in Pakistan.
