Steering You

     Los Angeles - Waymo has approval for an autonomous vehicle to start driving around Los Angeles.  These cars are also known as driverless cars, robo-cars (robotic-cars), or robo-taxis.  The cars are capable of traveling without human input and use a combination of sensors, cameras, radar (radio detection and ranging), lidar ( light detection and ranging), and AI (artificial intelligence).  Since driverless cars a very new technology that has only rolled out in a few cities, an override function is on them to let a human take control of the vechicle in an emergency.  See also, www.popularmechanics.com.
