On Saturday, just two months after it started testing them in Austin,Google announced its prototype self-driving cars, the ones it built from scratch to be fully self-driving, would be coming to Austin along with the company's safety drivers monitoring them as they drive around the city .The company made the announcement at the Thinkery Museum in Austin.
What this means is that, Austinites will be sharing the roads with Google self-driving cars with driver at the wheel. You guys will be seeing Google self-driving cars in the north and northeast of Downtown over the coming weeks.
The software in Google self-driving cars now detects animals according to the project head of business. Jennifer Haroon says their cars can handle animals like deer. And they won't run them over even when they show up from nowhere on to the road.
This is good! Google's vision of bringing cars that drive themselves to market by 2020 is becoming a reality. I just can't wait for that day to come.Next thing for you guys is self-driven wheelchairs to help the disabled get around easily.
NEXT Google self-driving cars like your grandma
