Perseverance Sets a Mars Rover Distance Record With Autonomous Driving
NASA’s Perseverance rover reached 28.10 miles (45.22 kilometers) of travel on Mars, surpassing Opportunity’s rover-distance record. Its AutoNav system handles about 90 percent of driving, using onboard terrain mapping to find safe routes; a second processor with an FPGA speeds image processing. The team also added Mars Global Localization to reduce position uncertainty, while human planners continue to set goals and review routes.
