Recently, car automation systems, such as cruise control and emergency braking systems have become the target of hackers. They can easily trick self-driving cars into taking evasive action. Automated cars use lidar that detect object and building a 3D image of the world around the car. Lider uses spinning lasers similer to laser poiter. Using this feature, hackers can mace a face object such as pedestrians, cyclists other cars or walls. These weakpoints allow hackers to take over key control system including gas pedal, brakes and stering.
I think self-driving cars are revolutionary technology. This technology can not only make drivers easy, but also reduce the car accidents. Replacing all of cars to automotive vehicles, the city become safety. This technology ought to be used for people’s safety, nevertheless, hackers abuse that and threaten us. For defending this great technology, we need make Lider higher quality. If they can use military technologies, they can be sure to make more strong than hackers. However, we must not too trust machine, because machine is not perfect.
