For a development vehicle,I am assuming they bypassed the car's stock functionality I am sure they had their own braking system that was supposed to stop for cars, pedestrians, cyclists etc. It didnt function currently at that time
- throwaway0a5e 6y agoI still haven't heard a good reason for them to not have also been running Volvo's system in parallel. Considering that the system is clearly not so hair trigger that humans hate it it shouldn't hobble their AI and it seems like all upside and no downside to me.
- davidhyde 6y ago> "Uber had disconnected the Volvo's factory-installed crash avoidance system. While the Uber vehicle's autonomous system did detect Herzberg before the impact, the vehicle — and Uber — relied on Vasquez to take action if an emergency arose." The Uber software can detect an imminent collision but relies on the backup driver to act on it. For everything else the car is designed to drive itself. This is why "automation complacency" should not be ignored.
