The Google self-driving car project has now, a real face and perspective: stakes and opportunities.

Progressively, we are going to witness how far, sensors, smart devices and objects, and software are going to improve our living conditions. This trend is unstoppable and the benefits are unmatched.  

 At Connectikpeople.co, this propensity is at core of our global commitment as a must-attend landmark for digital transformation.

We are excited to learn that, and uncover that, Google is building some prototypes of its self-driving car. Designed with the goal to operate safely and autonomously without requiring human intervention, those cars will not require a steering wheel, accelerator
pedal, or brake pedal.

Software and sensors do all the work. As you can observe in the video and picture, the vehicles will be very basic. They sensors embarked can detect objects out to a distance of more than two football fields in all directions.

Google has capped the speed of these first vehicles at 25 mph, with two seats; buttons to start and stop, and a screen that shows the route.

Pending, a pilot program in California in the next couple of years, Google plans to build about a hundred prototype vehicles, and later this summer.
