Wondered what life would be like it driverless cars where a thing? Well to welcome the future. Driverless cars are being made and they are getting tested and it is not a good thing. Driverless cars would be programmed to follow the driving rules, and only the driving rules. There are specific times to where a driver has to swerve over, make a fast stop, accelerate etc. Would a car that is driverless and only reliable on technology and sensors be able to handle that? Driverless cars should not be

Autonomous technology has been slowly rising up in the market, beginning with automatic stop brakes to parking assists. The one thing technology researchers are trying to advance on is full-on, automatic driving with no manual backing. Although this technology is not on the market yet, it will be in the near future. Google specifically has started their own self-driving project six years ago, introducing their own line of autonomous vehicles they call Google Blobs. The main reason self-driving vehicles

By definition, an autonomous vehicle, or driverless car, is one that is able to navigate terrain without the need for human input but human input is also an option. It is undeniably possible that we will see driverless cars on roads around the world at some point in the not-so-distant future. It has been stated that “the next generation of vehicles, such as BMW’s self-driving prototype, could be available within the next decade” and that within that decade Ford, GM, Toyota, Nissan, Volvo, and Audi

Accidents happen every day, which consists of terrifying situations in an individual’s life and there are hundreds or thousands of accidents involving automobiles. A known fact is that most number of people has no survivals as they do not get to hospital in time after their car accident. The 2010 national Automobile census, mentioned that more than 90% of reported accidents were caused by driver and less than 10% was due to outside or car problems. As the advances of technology increases, so does

Every day that passes, more technology is advancing. Cars are an innovation that is improved upon every adding second. One of these new advances is self driving cars. A self driving car has to be able to direct itself along roads or highways through traffic, in order to reach a destination. There is an enormous push to develop these cars and currently there are countless number of different companies that are in the development process. The closest company to a finished product is Google. According

Driverless Cars Are driverless cars really safe like everyone says? Are they better like everyone says? Will they meet everyone’s needs? And the real question is, are we ready for driverless cars? The insurance companies also have to be ready for driverless cars, which they are not. A driverless car may be safer but would it take the out of driving while lessening driver’s responsibilities? (Crowe)There are many upsides about driverless cars as well as there are downfalls. It honestly depends on

With the technology age in full swing, people are expecting new solutions to everyday problems. In the past few years, there have been many new technological advances and one of the most controversial are self-driving cars. As of today, there are many forms of transportation, ranging from bicycles to passenger trains. However, the idea of a self-driving car had not been heard of until this decade. Now there are many new companies and organizations putting self-driving cars on the road. A self-driving

With the push from google and Tesla to develop fully autonomous cars, the big question I think we should ask is should we? Should we develop vehicles that can fully operate themselves with no possibility of human intervention? Since Google in the early 2000s, there has been a push from manufacturers to produce vehicles that will one day be The driver. These systems can see obstacles in front, behind, and all around themselves. They can brake, accelerate, make turns, and park all by themselves, but

"I'm on my way!" you tell your friend over the phone as you step into your car. "I'll be there in half an hour!" You sit down and buckle up, absentmindedly opening the alarm app on your phone. You set it to wake you up in thirty minutes, then relax into your seat, turn on the radio, and close your eyes. How is this possible? Technology has advanced incredibly quickly over the last hundred years, with developments such as the Internet and the smart phone. Along with this technology has come a lot

Japan and South Korea are countries that have the most modernized technology in the world. They have engineered countless machinery and re-innovated what has been considered state-of-the-art. In the past several years, Japan has been one the first countries to manufacture an automobile that requires no driver, driven by an AI with GPS navigation. These new vehicles are the gateway to what the future of the car industry may hold. Japan made the first step and took the initiative in order to further
