DEVELOPEMENT
Sebastian Thrun Only Successful Vehicle
at Darpa Challenge Google names him
fellow, leads team Used Similar technology
on street cars Developed system that
could potentially be used on any car

HOW IT WORKS
LIDAR Based Laser system sends 64 different beams of light and measures the distance/shape/size of objects
28 ½ measurements per second Combined with Radars and Wheel encoders
Produces incredibly precise image of surroundings

HOW IT WORKS
In addition to top laser and Radar on bumpers 2 Narrow View
Cameras on dashboard
1 Wide View Camera on dashboard
GPS Computer
Processing Unit in trunk

INFORMATION GATHERED, INSTANTANEOUSLY PORTRAYED ON
SCREEN
How It Works

WHAT MAKES IT SO UNIQUE?
Volvo, Mercedes, Audi, Toyota all testing out driverless features
Google only truly driverless model
Google’s Important Patents How it learns and
makes decisions

IS IT PRACTICAL?
Pros: Can be applied to any
car Proven to be safe More fuel efficient On wide scale use,
would decongest
trafficCons: $150,000 in
equipment each Not legal in most
states Laws would have to be
re-written
