去年夏天,内华达州通过了一项法律,允许无人驾驶汽车在省道上行驶,进一步为无人驾驶汽车铺平了道路。内华达州州长Brian Sandoval则亲自体验了一程谷歌的无人驾驶汽车,并且形容这种体验很“惊艳”。谷歌无人驾驶汽车计划由DARPA大挑战赛赛友Sebastian Thrum牵头进行。车队由七辆丰田Prius混合动力车组成,自从2010年踏上道路以来,已累计行驶超过14万英里。汽车采用谷歌提供的地理数据,加上自备的相机、激光雷达来确定其在地图上的位置。
Last summer, Nevada passed a law that allowed driverless cars to drive in provincial highways, further paving the way for driverless cars. Brian Sandoval, governor of Nevada, personally went through Google’s driverless car and described the experience as “stunning.” Google’s driverless car program is headed by Sebastian Thrum, the DARPA Grand Challenge Tournament player. The fleet consists of seven Toyota Prius hybrids and has totaled more than 140,000 miles since embarking on the road in 2010. The car uses the geographical data provided by Google, coupled with its own camera, laser radar to determine its location on the map.
