Chris Urmson: How a driverless car sees the road
wie Sie tun, machen, Film, Beispiel
Statistically, the least reliable part of the car is ... the driver. Chris Urmson heads up Google's driverless car program, one of several efforts to remove humans from the driver's seat. He talks about where his program is right now, and shares fascinating footage that shows how the car sees the road and makes autonomous decisions about what to do next.

I was not able to see the full video, may someone explain to me how the car stays in lane and knows it's not out of the lane or in the middle of two lanes? Thank you.

6:40 Claims motorists make a mistake every 100,000 miles in USA. Actually around 500,000 miles, at most http://www.certifiedparalegals.org/infographic-car-accident-statistics/
https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/pressroom/fhwa1607.cfm
6:50 Comparing number of driver mistakes to processing speed of computer. Why? Makes no sense.
Using the above stats
3.2 trillion miles travelled on US roads every year
3 million people injured every year
You have to travel 1 million miles to be injured on average
Assuming you drive 20,000 miles a year
1 injury every 50 years
32,000 people killed in USA every year
You have to drive for 100 million miles to be killed on average
Assuming 20,000 miles per year, you have to drive for 5000 years to be die in a car accident in the USA
I haven't experienced a single piece of electronics that can operate without issue for 50 years, let alone 5000. -
at the end he said said "driver-assisted car systems like Tesla are a dead-end because they can only improve it so much". That's a bit out of date. Tesla is making cars with fully autonomous software.

excellent presentation and helps allay some of the fears that people have of "a dumb, blind computer", as we can see the reality is that the technology is now so advanced it can make superior decisions over humans in almost all cases, and not only in realtime but also predictive. In ~100 of whatever (much less i guess) years people will look back "remember back when everyone drove cars and there were so many crashes and trafficjams!? so crazy!"

Anything to put people out of work huh fucknuts? Enjoy the massive spike in the crimerate.

I would drive a car than a car driving me around.
I would use driver's assistance car instead than a stupid Self Driving Car. -
let's face it, how come they say driving is bad and want driverless car. Even motorcycle is bad to. NOT FAIR!
-
I am glad I read the comments, there are real concerns from several points of view that have to be considered.

What if you are a car guy and you don't want to have a computer take over something you love

This video is all about how the car handles traffic. But another large if not even larger complex subject is how the system would detect and handle bad road, weather and car conditions. How would you ever detect slippery roads (black ice, snow, even rain) or worn out tires.

I'd tickle the car & it'll bring the girl to me!

will it stop for a hitchhiker?
-
There is a massive problem with self driving cars and cars getting smaller.
What about tuning and drifting cars? Miatas? 240SX's? Silvias? Skylines?
And if computers are connected to a car, like the brakes, steering, acceleration, isn't there a massive chance of the cars being hackable?
Driving will be less enjoyable, the car community will die, and it sucks all the fun out of vehicles. -
Fantastic -Go Google!
-
direct to the point its an implementation of AI
-
Increase the smartness of a car, increase in stupidity in the humans.

I wonder what happens if they put the car into an impossible situation. Where i cannot break in time for another car or cyclist, but it cannot avoid either. I assume there are safeguards like that. To preserve human life at all cost. But whos is more valuable the driver or the one you might hit. Or will the system simply freeze, lock up or blue screen.
Because if you have the choice as a human driver to hit someone or drive into some empty cars. Its easy to choose..
