Self-driving cars will enable car-sharing even in spread-out suburbs. A car will come to you just when you need it. And when you are done with it, the car will just drive away, so you won’t even have to look for parking. – Sebastian Thrun, CEO of Udacity and a Google engineer who has been called the father of self-driving cars

Surround Vision

The Chevy Equinox's HD Surround Vision feature uses multiple cameras to create a digital overhead view of the vehicle's surroundings:

  • Cameras - The Equinox uses four cameras to create the overhead view: one in the front grille, two on the side mirrors, and one in the rear.
  • Image processing - The cameras feed video signals to an image-processing program in the vehicle's computer. The program analyzes and combines the images to create a synthetic, top-down view.
  • Display - The overhead view is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment system. The display may also show the front or rear camera view in addition to the overhead view, depending on the vehicle's gear and speed.

he HD Surround Vision feature is useful for parking, navigating tight spaces, and being aware of hazards. It works at low speeds, similar to the vehicle's front and rear park assist
