Description
Autonomous vehicles, cars that drive themselves unaided by humans, have been tested in many cities around the US and the world. Indeed, many currently available automobiles are equipped with some level of ability to self-drive. In this talk, we look at the current autonomous vehicles, learn how they operate, and look at the challenges ahead to make this technology more widely available and useful.
