Long Road to Autonomous Vehicles
General Motors' Firebird II was described as having an "electronic brain" that allowed it to move into a lane with a metal conductor and follow it along.
1950’s

“Want to sit back and relax? Well then, set in the speed you want to fly and switch over to automatic guidance. Release the stick, and Firebird III is on its own.” – Firebird III advertisement, late 1950s.

Autonomous vehicle technology key to improving surface transportation
Highway ITS role will change Past: Highway data to TMC to driver eyeballs Future: Vehicles harvest highway data and send to other vehicles via
cloud and/or V2V technology TMC role shifts
No truly autonomous vehicles; rather automated vehicle operation supported by multiple data streams
