For the past few years, Google has been test-driving Lexus SUVs retrofitted with self-driving technology. On Tuesday, the company announced it would test the technology in its own cars. It also gave a preview to reporters gathered for a conference in California.
The electric-powered car is simple: two seats, two buttons and a screen that displays the route. A combination of laser and radar sensors do all the work, rendering brakes, a steering wheel and accelerator pedal unnecessary. (Right now, the cars are monitored by Google employees when they’re out on the road.)
