Level 5 – complete automation

In level 5 autonomy, the vehicle will be completely autonomous. Here, no human driver is required; the vehicle controls all the critical tasks such as steering, the brakes, and the pedals. It will monitor the environment and identify and react to all unique driving conditions such as traffic jams. 

NVIDIA's announcement of an AI computer that can control a car will be a great contribution to level 5 autonomy (https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/self-driving-cars/).

Now, let's move on and look at the approaches of deep learning and computer vision for SDCs.
