This is really cool. I think autonomous driving is a solved problem, however its not yet practical and too expensive. These innovations help to bridge that gap.

This is really cool. I think autonomous driving is a solved problem, however its not yet practical and too expensive. These innovations help to bridge that gap. However another unsolved problem here is not the driving itself, but the behaviour of a human in a self-driving car. How will humans behave? How do you indicate that a human should take over control? Will they be in constant fear? There is research being done on this, both by google: http://www.technologyreview.com/news/520746/data-shows-googles-robot-cars-are-smoother-safer-drivers-than-you-or-i/ http://www.technologyreview.com/news/520746/data-shows-googl... and by Universities in Europe: https://sites.google.com/site/itnhfauto/ https://sites.google.com/site/itnhfauto/
