Internet giant Google is interested not only in the market of mobile devices and wearable electronics, but automotive segment.
In the official Google blog appeared a post, devoted to the first car with the autopilot. It looks like a tiny cartoon vehicle, but despite this he calmly accommodates two passengers. The driver of the car is not required, it is the function of electronics.
The lounge cars are arranged seats with seat belts for two passengers and provided space for their luggage. But the usual attributes of a vehicle as a steering wheel and pedals not. They are replaced by the start and stop, as well as the screen, which displays the specified route. Driving done the whole system, consisting of not only software, but also a variety of sensors and cameras, including those that define the dead zone and can capture objects at a distance of hundreds of meters from the car.
It is argued that to create a unique vehicle developers guided primarily the desire to create a safe vehicle for both passengers and pedestrians. Use it for movements may even people with disabilities, which is demonstrated in the video. Are there other elements of passive safety belts besides, is not specified. We only know that the vehicle speed is capped at 40 kilometers per hour.
Google plans to release about a hundred prototypes for testing, which kicks off this summer. First test samples get manual control for security. And if all goes well, the company plans to launch in the next few years a small pilot program in California, which is now at the legislative level permitted use of automated guided vehicles on the roads for general use. And only after that we can talk about the mass appearance of such vehicles on the roads with the autopilot.
By the way, Google has previously offered reporters assess the possibility of automated guided vehicles. .
