Robotics operating system that upgrades vehicle driver assistance.
openpilot provides driver-assistance software for supported vehicles using a comma device and a compatible car harness. Its vehicle compatibility table records adaptive-cruise-control availability, steering limits and minimum operating speeds by model and equipment package. The system logs driving and sensor data, with road-facing recordings uploaded by default; users can access their data through comma connect.

Run modes
- Device firmware
openpilot runs on a comma device and upgrades driver assistance in a supported car.
Install methods
- Firmware image
On a comma four, enter the URL openpilot.comma.ai to install the release software.
Documented platforms
- comma four / comma 3X
Release branches are named for comma four and comma 3X. The README says other hardware is possible and is not plug-and-play.
External services
- comma driving-data upload · optional
The README says upload is on by default and that users can disable collection.
Resource and setup notes
- Constraint: A supported comma device, a supported car, and a car harness.
The README lists those three, plus the software URL, as what car use requires. Car compatibility is device-specific.
