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.

In all supported cars:
- Stock Lane Keep Assist (LKA) and stock ALC are replaced by openpilot ALC, which only functions when openpilot is engaged by the user.
- Stock LDW is replaced by openpilot LDW.
Additionally, on specific supported cars (see ACC column in supported cars):
- Stock ACC is replaced by openpilot ACC.
- openpilot FCW operates in addition to stock FCW.
openpilot should preserve all other vehicle's stock features, including, but are not limited to: FCW, Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), auto high-beam, blind spot warning, and side collision warning.
At the moment, openpilot supports the EON DevKit and the comma two. A car harness is recommended to connect the EON or comma two to the car. In the future, we'd like to support other platforms as well, like gaming PCs.

4When disconnecting the Driver Support Unit (DSU), openpilot ACC will replace stock ACC. For DSU locations, see Toyota Wiki page. NOTE: disconnecting the DSU disables Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB).
5Comma Pedal is used to provide stop-and-go capability to some of the openpilot-supported cars that don't currently support stop-and-go. Here is how to build a Comma Pedal. NOTE: The Comma Pedal is not officially supported by comma.
6Requires a panda and community built giraffe. NOTE: disconnecting the ASCM disables Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB).
Community Maintained Cars and Features are not verified by comma to meet our safety model. Be extra cautious using them. They are only available after enabling the toggle in Settings->Developer->Enable Community Features.
Install openpilot on a EON by entering https://openpilot.comma.ai during the installer setup.
Follow this video instructions to properly mount the EON on the windshield. Note: openpilot features an automatic pose calibration routine and openpilot performance should not be affected by small pitch and yaw misalignments caused by imprecise EON mounting.
Before placing the device on your windshield, check the state and local laws and ordinances where you drive. Some state laws prohibit or restrict the placement of objects on the windshield of a motor vehicle.
You will be able to engage openpilot after reviewing the onboarding screens and finishing the calibration procedure.
openpilot ALC and openpilot LDW do not automatically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that must be paid to operate your vehicle. The driver must always keep control of the steering wheel and be ready to correct the openpilot ALC action at all times.
While changing lanes, openpilot is not capable of looking next to you or checking your blind spot. Only nudge the wheel to initiate a lane change after you have confirmed it's safe to do so.
Many factors can impact the performance of openpilot ALC and openpilot LDW, causing them to be unable to function as intended. These include, but are not limited to:
- Poor visibility (heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.) or weather conditions that may interfere with sensor operation.
- The road facing camera is obstructed, covered or damaged by mud, ice, snow, etc.
- Obstruction caused by applying excessive paint or adhesive products (such as wraps, stickers, rubber coating, etc.) onto the vehicle.
- The EON is mounted incorrectly.
- When in sharp curves, like on-off ramps, intersections etc...; openpilot is designed to be limited in the amount of steering torque it can produce.
- In the presence of restricted lanes or construction zones.
- When driving on highly banked roads or in presence of strong cross-wind.
- Extremely hot or cold temperatures.
- Bright light (due to oncoming headlights, direct sunlight, etc.).
- Driving on hills, narrow, or winding roads.
The list above does not represent an exhaustive list of situations that may interfere with proper operation of openpilot components. It is the driver's responsibility to be in control of the vehicle at all times.
openpilot ACC and openpilot FCW are not systems that allow careless or inattentive driving. It is still necessary for the driver to pay close attention to the vehicle’s surroundings and to be ready to re-take control of the gas and the brake at all times.
Many factors can impact the performance of openpilot ACC and openpilot FCW, causing them to be unable to function as intended. These include, but are not limited to:
- Poor visibility (heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.) or weather conditions that may interfere with sensor operation.
- The road facing camera or radar are obstructed, covered, or damaged by mud, ice, snow, etc.
- Obstruction caused by applying excessive paint or adhesive products (such as wraps, stickers, rubber coating, etc.) onto the vehicle.
- The EON is mounted incorrectly.
- Approaching a toll booth, a bridge or a large metal plate.
- When driving on roads with pedestrians, cyclists, etc...
- In presence of traffic signs or stop lights, which are not detected by openpilot at this time.
- When the posted speed limit is below the user selected set speed. openpilot does not detect speed limits at this time.
- In presence of vehicles in the same lane that are not moving.
- When abrupt braking maneuvers are required. openpilot is designed to be limited in the amount of deceleration and acceleration that it can produce.
- When surrounding vehicles perform close cut-ins from neighbor lanes.
- Driving on hills, narrow, or winding roads.
- Extremely hot or cold temperatures.
- Bright light (due to oncoming headlights, direct sunlight, etc.).
- Interference from other equipment that generates radar waves.
The list above does not represent an exhaustive list of situations that may interfere with proper operation of openpilot components. It is the driver's responsibility to be in control of the vehicle at all times.
openpilot DM should not be considered an exact measurements of the status of alertness of the driver.
Many factors can impact the performance of openpilot DM, causing it to be unable to function as intended. These include, but are not limited to:
- Low light conditions, such as driving at night or in dark tunnels.
- Bright light (due to oncoming headlights, direct sunlight, etc.).
- The driver face is partially or completely outside field of view of the driver facing camera.
- Right hand driving vehicles.
- The driver facing camera is obstructed, covered, or damaged.
The list above does not represent an exhaustive list of situations that may interfere with proper operation of openpilot components. A driver should not rely on openpilot DM to assess their level of attention.
By default, openpilot uploads the driving data to our servers. You can also access your data by pairing with the comma connect app (iOS, Android). We use your data to train better models and improve openpilot for everyone.
openpilot is open source software: the user is free to disable data collection if they wish to do so.
openpilot logs the road facing camera, CAN, GPS, IMU, magnetometer, thermal sensors, crashes, and operating system logs. The driver facing camera is only logged if you explicitly opt-in in settings. The microphone is not recorded.
By using openpilot, you agree to our Privacy Policy. You understand that use of this software or its related services will generate certain types of user data, which may be logged and stored at the sole discretion of comma. By accepting this agreement, you grant an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide right to comma for the use of this data.
- openpilot observes ISO26262 guidelines, see SAFETY.md for more detail.
- openpilot has software in the loop tests that run on every commit.
- The safety model code lives in panda and is written in C, see code rigor for more details.
- panda has software in the loop safety tests.
- Internally, we have a hardware in the loop Jenkins test suite that builds and unit tests the various processes.
- panda has additional hardware in the loop tests.
- We run the latest openpilot in a testing closet containing 10 EONs continuously replaying routes.
Check out openpilot-tools: lots of tools you can use to replay driving data, test and develop openpilot from your pc.
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 encouraged.
You can add support for your car by following guides we have written for Brand and Model ports. Generally, a car with adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist is a good candidate. Join our Discord to discuss car ports: most car makes have a dedicated channel.
