The progression of autonomous vehicles is transforming the landscape of transportation, offering the promise of improved safety, effectiveness, and comfort. This research paper addresses the multifaceted challenges associated with autonomous driving, concentrating on the important parts of what the vehicle is seen and the way that it means for the reliability of its operations. We investigate some of the most important necessary technologies to construct and send off autonomous systems, such as sensor fusion, which compiles information from multiple sensors into one cohesive model of the environment; object detection and classification, which empower accurate distinguishing proof and understanding of surrounding objects; and localization and mapping, which provide precise positioning and definite environmental representations.Our study also delves into depth estimation techniques for assessing object distances, dynamic object tracking for managing moving entities, and the effects of adverse environmental conditions on perception accuracy. Moreover, we in-depth investigate semantic segmentation for understanding the images of the scene, high-definition mapping for road marking in a point by point road representation, and sensor calibration, which helps us in ensuring alignment and accuracy. This paper mentions the privacy and ethics issues in relation to data collection and use by autonomous systems.Firstly, by going through the latest studies and by testing out different technologies we aim to underline both the advantages and problems in the perception of an autonomous vehicle. This research has a very clear presentation of the methods that are currently in use, commits main difficulties and informs what should be done in the future so that complete self-directed cars are reached. We provide some remarkable insights and thus a thorough and informed discussion of the impact of the autonomous vehicle technology not only on the field of transportation but generally will be pursued.
