  1. Google's’ self Driving Car “The Google Car”

  2. The Google toys Currently Google has equipped multiple cars with this new technology. Toyota Prius Audy TT And three Lexus RX450h models.

  3. Background • Goal of the Google Car is to change the world as we know it. • The future you imagine is possible. Examples: • Safer roads • User friendly to more than the current driving population (youths, intoxicated, elderly) • More eco-friendly, less harmful emissions.

  4. Technology This car is filled with technology allowing it to differentiate between other cars, pedestrians, cyclists, and small and large stationary objects. Doesn’t need light in order to function. Uses a radar, lasers, front mounted camera, and a staggering amount of software at work at all time. All together, this helps create a 3D modelimage of the immediate area.

  5. Advantages To start off, Google did a little test to show off the possibility and reliability of their product. To the right is a blind man, who has survived a whole trip from his home to a local Taco Bell drive through and back. As well as, Fewer accidents Redundant drivers eliminated. Parking scarcity resolved. Better management of traffic flow.

  6. Advantages (extended) • As well as, • Fewer accidents • Redundant drivers eliminated. • Parking scarcity resolved. • Better management of traffic flow.

  7. Disadvantages • Giving up driving. • Job losses (taxies, professional drivers) • Costs of putting in sensors everywhere. • Huge reliance on GPS satellite. • The biggest problem is liability if something does go wrong.
