After moving the sensors around to various spots on the front, Volvo engineers finally found a solution. Next year, when Swedish drivers take their hands off the wheel of leased XC90s in the world’s first public test of autonomous technology, the radar will be nestled behind the windshield, where wipers can clear the ice and snow.
Also, “The radar is the key element of that because of its ability to work robustly in inclement weather.”
And, One sensor alone will never be enough, however. “You need different types of sensors looking at the same thing, detecting the same object, to very confidently allow the vehicle to do what you expect,” Carlson said.
And when hackers decide to play demolition derby or grand theft auto with random driverless vehicles…who is going to be held responsible for the resulting death and damages?
Won’t the attorney’s have fun suing each and every component manufacturer of these cars plus the manufacturer of the auto. Volvo better have very deep pockets.
So, driver not required = all occupants could be under the influence and legally transported?
If the AI of the vehicle wants to stop and air up the tires, can a human override this safety issue because they are in a hurry to get to a meeting or some other commitment?
Will the Feds program my driverless vehicle to refuse the McDonalds drive thru because it has calculated I’m 20lbs overweight? “Sorry Jolly, we will have to drop you off at Chipotles. Don’t worry about the Salmonella, just make it chicken and no more than two taco’s or I’m not budging”
As I recall, Chipotle’s had an issue with ecoli both in the west and the east. We will let all those Progressives eat there from now on and we will go to more healthful eating establishments.
Jolly, I was going to lunch the other day and passed by Chipotle’s and there was only two patron cars in the lot. On the other hand, the Chik Fil A parking lot was jammed and the drive through had a line. Who do you think the customers prefer?
I’m also not aware of that particular restaurant selling only to “Progressives”. Anyhow, I recommend visiting the below website weekly to stay on top of foods, restaurants, and grocery products you may want to choose to pass. Further, you may want to stay away from fast food in general. Not only is it horrible for you, but the handling of it is often times to blame. Those employees are in way too much of a hurry to be as sanitary as the meals require 100% of the time.

The hackers would be held responsible.
Just like they are held responsible now.
Won’t the attorney’s have fun suing each and every component manufacturer of these cars plus the manufacturer of the auto. Volvo better have very deep pockets.

The oh so smart AI would have already put air in the tires and be full of gas before it left!

Yeah, healthier like McDonald’s. Are you serious?

Uhhh, certainly nothing related to Mexicans. We prefer Christian, anti-gay restaurants, of course. Am I right?

Not Fast Food…. C O M F O R T food………….
It was comforting to me to have a Sausage McGriddle this morning for breakfast before coming to work.
Not just Chipotle’s problem:

Uh oh, Captain…I’m sensing that your comments and the data from your links may be based on actual science.
