autosteer

Vehicle guides itself

Autosteer is a feature that automatically keeps a vehicle or vessel on course without constant manual input.

On tractors, autosteer uses GPS to guide straight rows across fields: The autosteer let him focus on monitoring the planter.

In cars, particularly Teslas, autosteer maintains lane position on highways.

The technology ranges from basic lane-keeping assistance to more advanced semi-autonomous driving.
