Uploaded on Mar 31, 2011

Sebastian Thrun helped build Google's amazing driverless car, powered by a very personal quest to save lives and reduce traffic accidents. Jawdropping video shows the DARPA Challenge-winning car motoring through busy city traffic with no one behind the wheel, and dramatic test drive footage from TED2011 demonstrates how fast the thing can really go.

Self-Driving Car Test: Steve Mahan

Published on Mar 28, 2012

We announced our self-driving car project in 2010 to make driving safer, more enjoyable, and more efficient. Having safely completed over 200,000 miles of computer-led driving, we wanted to share one of our favorite moments. Here's Steve, who joined us for a special drive on a carefully programmed route to experience being behind the wheel in a whole new way. We organized this test as a technical experiment, but we think it's also a promising look at what autonomous technology may one day deliver if rigorous technology and safety standards can be met.

Behind the Google Self Driving Car Project

Published on May 27, 2014

Every year 1.2 million people die worldwide in traffic-related incidents, and over 90% of those accidents are due to human error. The Google self-driving car team hopes to improve people's lives by developing fully self-driving technology that can improve road safety and make it easier for people to get around.

A first drive

Published on May 27, 2014

Fully autonomous driving has always been the goal of our project, because we think this could improve road safety and help lots of people who can't drive.

We're now developing prototypes of vehicles that have been designed from the ground up to drive themselves—just push a button and they'll take you where you want to go! We'll use these vehicles to test our software and learn what it will really take to bring this technology into the world.

Watch volunteers take a ride in Mountain View, California.

Published on Jun 30, 2014

By designing a prototype vehicle from the ground up, the Google self-driving car team was able to reimagine what a vehicle should look like and how it should work when it's built for self-driving. Jaime, a systems engineer, explains how we've designed some of the components of the self-driving vehicle.
