I am pretty sure Uber uses an iPad app for its autonomous vehicles. The driver is looking at that iPad application periodically along with the physical windshield view.
- jackvalentine 9y agoWhat kind of things does the iPad display? Should the safety driver even be tasked with looking at it while in 'control' of the vehicle?
- isaachier 9y agoIf you search "Uber autonomous vehicle" you can see some videos of the display. From what I gather, basically gathers the signals into a human readable model. In general I wouldn't have recommended this driving style but it might have been too dark to see much anyway.
- jackvalentine 9y agoI don’t understand this, I’ve seen a few people comment in the same vein. People can safely drive in total darkness with the aid of their amazing human eyes and high-beams. If for some other reason visibility is low you slow down - not rely on glancing at a backlit display ruining your own night vision and taking your eyes off the road for seconds at a time.
