A new way forward for self driving cars
summary
Waymo announces fully self-driving Chrysler Pacifica minivans outfitted with lidar radar cameras and an in-house AI compute stack, running on public roads in the Phoenix area with no one in the front seats. Vehicles have redundant steering braking computing and power, run thousands of self-checks per second, and practice 20,000 test scenarios plus a simulator fleet logging 4 billion virtual km and 5.5 million km on roads; live demos are already operating and carrying early riders.
