Yeah, eye contact is a very important signal. Maybe there needs to be some specialized hardware to detect eyes and determine the direction they're looking in.

- beenBoutIT 8y agoGood idea, although suicidal or oblivious/impaired pedestrians might fail to make eye-contact.
- ScottBurson 8y agoWell, exactly. Those are the ones you slow down for.
- beenBoutIT 8y agoI like it. This 'jumping in front of cabs' thing is huge in Russia and it'd be cool if AI could prevent that here.
- naasking 8y agoWe use eye contact because we can't infer what another person is thinking and we can't react quickly enough to their actual movements at car speeds. This latter isn't the case with automated vehicles, so eye contact shouldn't be necessary, as long as you get the vector algorithms right.
