Autonomy - Lawrence D Burns - Bog

Autonomy is the story of the maverick engineers and computer experts who triggered the driverless car revolution. Longtime adviser to the Google self-driving car project (now Waymo) and former General Motors vice president of research, development, and planning Lawrence D. Burns provides the perfectly timed history, beginning at a 2004 off-road robot race across the Mojave Desert with a million-dollar purse and continuing through today's stampede to develop driverless technology. Autonomy is a page-turner that represents a chronicle of the past, diagnosis of the present, and prediction of the future?the ultimate guide to understanding the driverless car and navigating the revolution it sparks.
