The Google Self-Driving Car is a project by Google that
involves developing technology for auto car , mainly electric cars. The software powering Google's cars is called Google
Chauffeur. Lettering on the side of each car identifies it as a
"self-driving car". The project is currently being led by Google
engineer Sebastian Thrun, former director of the Stanford Artificial
Intelligence Laboratory and co-inventor of Google Street View .
Thrun's team at Stanford created the robotic vehicle Stanley which
won the 2005 DARPA Grand
Challenge and its US$2 million prize
from the United States
Department of Defense. The team
developing the system consisted of 15 engineers working for Google, including
Chris Urmson, Mike Montemerlo, and Anthony Levandowski who
had worked on the DARPA Grand and Urban Challenges.
In my point of view
the project cannot be applied in the reality in the present because of technology is not advance enough and cannot produced in the large quantity but this project is really interesting for human race in the future in term of provide utilities and convenience for the driver and it can be reduced in the amount of car accident and also reduce the traffic jam because everything is controlled by the computer system
Meet Steve Mahan, one of the first users of Google’s self-driving car. Watch this video to follow Steve as he drives around town and runs errands—without touching the steering wheel. While the self-driving car is still in development, it aims to make driving safer, more efficient and more enjoyable.
