Is Aircraft Cruise Control Considered Autonomous Driving?

[IanFitz]

Currently, aircraft cruise control operates autonomously. Below is more information about autonomous driving levels: 1. Level L1: Can assist the driver in completing certain driving tasks, such as the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) feature installed in many vehicle models, which uses radar to control the distance between vehicles and adjust speed in real-time, widely applied in many domestic models. 2. Level L2: Can automatically complete certain driving tasks and, through processing and analysis, automatically adjust the vehicle's state. Features like Tesla's Lane Keeping Assist fall under this level, which not only controls acceleration and deceleration but also manages steering, though the driver must still monitor the surroundings to ensure safe operation. 3. Level L3: This level uses more logical vehicle computer systems to control the car. The driver does not need to keep hands and feet ready; the vehicle can independently handle driving in specific environments. However, the driver cannot sleep or rest and must take over when the AI cannot make accurate judgments. The recently launched BMW X7 claims to have achieved this level of autonomous driving technology.
