Googles self-driving car passes 700,000 accident-free miles, can now avoid cyclists, stop at railroad crossings

2014-04-29 17:11:35| Extremetech

Google's self-driving cars, of which there are usually a dozen on the roads of California and Nevada at any given time, have now logged 700,000 miles of awesome accident-free autonomous driving. To celebrate, Google has released a new video that demonstrates some impressive software improvements that have been made over the last two years: Most notably, its self-driving cars can now track hundreds of objects simultaneously, including pedestrians, an indicating cyclist, a stop sign held by a crossing guard, or traffic cones. You really should watch the video -- it's one of the coolest bits of tech that I've seen in a long time.
