Next up: people start getting into Zuckerberg’s home by holding up a life size picture of Andrea’s face.
- Erwin 10y agoHopefully that's a sufficient well-known trick to be aware of, given its appearance in 1997's "Fifth Element": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nah_3vO0uhM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nah_3vO0uhM -- Matthieu Kassovitz as the low-tech robber trying to trick the hi-tech security system.
- rthille 10y ago"Nice hat"
- komali2 10y agoI've wanted to test something similar - holding up a giant "Speed Limit: 75MPH" sign when a google car drives by on these little 30mph Mountain View roads and see what happens. Probably nothing but I can't shake the comical thought of one of those little bugs rocketing to turbo mode while the dude inside is frantically slapping the big red "stop" button.
- tejaswiy 10y agoIt hopefully uses it's GPS in combination with the Google mapping data for speed limits along with signage on the road. Hilarious to think about nonetheless.
- komali2 10y agoProbably right, because when I use google maps' navigation mode, it sometimes has a little speed limit sign in the top right corner.
- user5994461 10y agoAll GPS have speed limits for all road, and they can beep when you go over the speed limits. The speed is part of the map.
- zingermc 10y agoSelf-driving cars need to support unplanned changes to the road, such as construction zones.
- pbhjpbhj 10y agoUK motorways have varying speed limits communicated via road-side signage. When repairs are being made there are sandwich board style signs that say "dead slow loose chippings" [chippings being small stones] or sometimes they have a 15mph label on a similar sign. You'd have to guarantee perfect information from road repair crews, at least, if you were going to ignore situational signage.
- corobo 10y agoThere's gotta be some kind of backup/verification. Street signs get vandalised and stolen surprisingly frequently.
- rcheu 10y agoThey currently have a max speed of 25 mph or something, even on roads with faster speed limits. It's a bit annoying when you're stuck behind them.
- Ajedi32 10y agoIsn't that only for the custom-designed Prototype cars? I thought the modded Lexus cars were allowed to drive at highway speeds.
- reitanqild 10y agoI think he might have anticipated that: To do this, I installed a few cameras at my door that can capture images from all angles. I understand that this doesn't necessarily help in itself, but it should give plenty of options for detecting anomalies.
- robotresearcher 10y agoOr a small picture close to the camera.
- mightybyte 10y agoGood point. This technique might also help to combat the multiple cameras.
