Currently, openpilot performs the functions of Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) and Automated Lane Centering (ALC). openpilot can accelerate,
brake automatically for other vehicles, and steer to follow the
road/lane.
When openpilot is enabled, a driver monitoring system watches the driver
and ensures the driver is attentive and ready to take over at all times.
When used correctly, these features reduce your workload as a driver,
and can make long drives relaxing instead of tedious.
02
Connects to your car
openpilot works by connecting to your car's CAN network. Modern cars
accept electronic steering, gas, and brake commands to allow for ADAS
features. openpilot can use these commands to provide much better ADAS
features than the car manufacturers can provide.
03
Modern machine learning
openpilot contains a state-of-the-art neural network that understands
the road scene and predicts where to drive. This neural network has
learned to drive by watching the millions of miles of driving data
openpilot has recorded. This makes openpilot exceptionally good at
nuanced situations such as driving in areas with faded lanelines,
different countries, and more.

Open source and community supported
openpilot is developed by comma and by users like you. We welcome both
pull requests and issues on
GitHub.
Bug fixes and new car ports are strongly encouraged. Check out the
contributing docs.
Our 10,000+ users have driven over 100+ million miles with a device
running openpilot. Over 56% of those miles were driven by openpilot,
with the driver supervising.
Using @comma_ai for long-hauls. This thing drove me from Prague to Belgrade and back without issues. It can keep you in lanes almost all the time, change lanes, adapt the speed, stop & go in the traffic. It runs opensource openpilot which gets better every month.
@the_blueprint@Ebony84Rose Openpilot is better and far cheaper. Plus it works in way more cars. Assisted driving, for those of us that have used it, is much more relaxing. Especially on long drives over 3-4 hours. I love driving. But I feel more alert and rested when using assisted driving on long hauls.
@comma_ai I've been using openpilot for about 3 months now. Probably one of the best purchase decisions I've ever made. Great work @comma_ai team and @realGeorgeHotz
@comma_ai I have logged 3,780 miles with Openpilot engaged. Since I've had a Comma Two installed in my car, I have driven about 3,982 miles. This means my Openpilot engagement rate is 94.9%
Now if we go by total miles driven since OWNING the car, the rate is (3780/5800 miles) = 65%
drove 2+ hrs with @comma_ai Comma 2 w/OpenPilot in our 2017 Subaru Impreza.
Fascinating that a team of ~12 is able leverage available sensor suite that comes with almost any modern(2016+) car and make it better than the stock driver assist using a 2016 cellphone (LeEco LePro 3).
