Google which is known more for its search engine and e-mail service, has packed the first licence in the US to test self-driving cars along busy public roads in Nevada.. Officials of the Department of Motor Vehicles in Nevada(California) said they have issued Google the nation's first licence to test an autonomous vehicle that does not need a driver on its public streets..
Google’s mission is "to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful". Their next step into that realm is making auto driving cars.. The Google Blog announced Google has “developed technology for cars that can drive themselves.” O yes, autodriving cars, likein the movies and high tech TV shows... :)
Google’s reasoning behind this move is to make the roads safer and reduce accidents.. Google said they have been testing this for a while and have already driven 140,000 miles with trained safety drivers who can override the system at any time.. Google explained the cars figure out how to drive using video cameras, radar sensors and a laser range finder to “see” other traffic as well as detailed maps to navigate the road ahead which is all pulled from Google’s data centers..
