Disengagement Analysis and Field Tests of a Prototypical Open-Source Level 4 Autonomous Driving System
Description
Proprietary Autonomous Driving Systems are typically evaluated through disengagements, unplanned manual interventions to alter vehicle behavior, as annually reported by the California Department of Motor Vehicles. However, the real-world capabilities of prototypical open-source Level 4 vehicles over substantial distances remain largely unexplored. This study evaluates a research vehicle running an Autoware-based software stack across 236 km of mixed traffic. By classifying 30 disengagements acro
