Electric vehicles, connectivity and autonomous driving functions will revolutionise the automotive domain, which is a major challenge for vehicle manufacturers. Customers should be willing to pay for autonomous driving features that are a small part of the total car costs. The rationale behind DANGUN is that rather than using expensive sensors a comparable performance can be achieved through the close cooperation of suppliers of advanced perception sensors, vehicle manufactures and academia. The DANGUN project aims to develop a Traffic Jam Pilot function with autonomous capabilities using low-cost automotive components.
