What is openpilot?

openpilot is an open source driver assistance system. Currently, openpilot performs the functions of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Automated Lane Centering (ALC), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), and Lane Departure Warning (LDW) for a growing variety of supported car makes, models, and model years. In addition, while openpilot is engaged, a camera-based Driver Monitoring (DM) feature alerts distracted and asleep drivers. See more about the vehicle integration and limitations.

How do I use it?

openpilot is designed to be used on the comma 3X.

How does it work?

In short, openpilot uses the car's existing APIs for the built-in ADAS system and simply provides better acceleration, braking, and steering inputs than the stock system.
