This new Waymo creature

Looks a lot smarter than the Jag-based one I rode in, that thing was an ergonomic disaster. I’ve said for years now that self-driving taxis, especially full bev, should be rectangular boxes on wheels.

Wait till you see a new Zoox irl!

Looks like a toaster

If you think that looks like a toaster, you should look up the Zoox VH6

Neat! Somehow obvious that Amazon, who runs the largest robot fleet in the world knows a thing or two on how to scale a warehouse bot up for human sized cargo ..

It’s pretty cool. All four wheels can turn so it has a tiny turning radius.

Since it has no driver’s seat, the passenger seats face each other, and symmetrical sensors, it doesn’t have to make a Y turn to reverse, it can just go backwards.

Who knows how good it’ll be at autonomous driving but it’s a gigantic milestone being the first self driving car that wasn’t adapted from a traditional car.

There is a Gemini AI watermark in the corner. OP just slopping it up hard

Someone probably used it to either put the two photos together (mad) or blur the person's face

They look pretty similar, maybe gemini just blurred the dude

Cutting costs, finally.

Otherwise, they will lose their competitiveness pretty soon.

I kinda like it

I saw a bunch of them in Denver!

So many external sensors it's a wonder anyone believes tesla would be able to do FSD with their cameras

Lidar is so important for actual self driving. Used in conjunction with camera and radar, each sensor type fills in the gap the other types struggle with

Seems like lidar doesn't work great on giant puddles.

Ivanovi4@reddit

Still better in recognizing painted walls

worldspawn00@reddit

Yeah... You could probably coyote and roadrunner a Tesla

DicemonkeyDrunk@reddit

Is that a Challenge?

Later this year: "16 Tesla Cybercabs drive into mural near interstate exit in 1 day."

righthandofdog@reddit

Pretty important

[-]

moopymooperson@reddit

That is very true. You end up with false positives, same as any other reflective surfaces, which is were sensor fusion comes in handy. The camera and radar can give their input so the planner can make a decision on how to act.

righthandofdog@reddit

Not working so good so far

GlockAF@reddit

The most dangerous gap in “self-driving” cars is the vast gulf between actual self-driving and the deliberately crippled beta test version that Muskrat sells in his Teslas

Camera-only kills
