The New Amazing Self Driving Car Introduced By Google

  1. HOW IT WORKS 



Navigating city streets

They have taught their cars to navigate through many complicated scenarios on city streets.
The cars use their sensors and software to sense objects like pedestrians, cyclists, vehicles and more, and are designed to safely drive around them.

How it drives
Like any driver, a self-driving car needs to constantly answer these questions.
Where am I?
The car processes both map and sensor information to determine where it is in the world. The car knows what street it's on and which lane it's in.

What’s around me?

Sensors help detect objects all around us. The software classifies objects based on their size, shape and movement pattern. It detects a cyclist and a pedestrian in this case.

What will happen next?

The software predicts what all the objects around us might do next. It predicts that the cyclist will ride by and the pedestrian will cross the street.

What should I do?

The software then chooses a safe speed and trajectory for the car. The car nudges away from the cyclist, then slows down to yield to the pedestrian.

What’s in a self-driving car

Our self-driving prototypes rely on their sensors and software to drive themselves.
We’re working toward vehicles that take you where you want to go at the push of a button. We started by adding components to existing cars like our Lexus SUVs, then began designing a new prototype from the ground up to better explore what should go into a fully self-driving vehicle. We removed the steering wheel and pedals, and instead designed a prototype that lets the software and sensors handle the driving.



  1. Sensors

    Lasers, radars and cameras detect objects in all directions

  2. Interior

    Designed for riding, not for driving

  3. Electric batteries

    To power the vehicle

  4. Rounded shape

    Maximizes sensor field of view

  5. Computer

    Designed specifically for self-driving

  • Back-up systems
  • For steering, braking, computing and more
  • 2. WHEN ON THE ROAD
  • It started as early as the 1939 New York World’s Fair where visitors were presented a vision of automated highways. In the mid 2000s, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) organized the Grand Challenges where teams gathered to compete with self-driving vehicles. In 2009, Google started the self-driving car project, including team members who had already dedicated years to the technology.
  • In 2009,They started testing the self-driving technology with the Toyota Prius on freeways in California.
In 2012,They began testing with the Lexus RX450h. At this point, we had completed over 300,000 miles of testing on freeways.

  • Next,They shifted focus to city streets, a much more complex environment than freeways.
  • .
  • They unveiled an early construction of our new prototype vehicle in 2014. It’s designed from the ground up to be fully self-driving.

  • After months of testing and iterating, They delivered the first real build of our prototype vehicle in December 2014.

Here they are

We’ve self-driven more than 1.5 million miles and are currently out on the streets of Mountain View, CA, Austin, TX, Kirkland, WA and Metro Phoenix, AZ.
The testing fleet includes both modified Lexus SUVs and new prototype vehicles that are designed from the ground up to be fully self-driving. There are safety drivers aboard all vehicles for now. We look forward to learning how the community perceives and interacts with us, and uncovering situations that are unique to a fully self-driving vehicle.

Apple Hacked By A 16 Year Old Teen !

 A Teenage boy pleeded guillty to hack into Apple internal database The 16-year-old accessed 90 gigabytes worth of files, breaking into the system many times over the course of a year from his suburban home in Melbourne, reports The Age newspaper. It says he stored the documents in a folder called 'hacky hack hack'.👻 Apple insists that no customer data was compromised. But The Age reports that the boy had accessed customer accounts. In a statement to the BBC, Apple said: "We vigilantly protect our networks and have dedicated teams of information security professionals that work to detect and respond to threats. "In this case, our teams discovered the unauthorised access, contained it, and reported the incident to law enforcement. "We regard the data security of our users as one of our greatest responsibilities and want to assure our customers that at no point during this incident was their personal data compromised."

All Controller controls all your consoles

Am here to introduce to you the All controller for all standard game consoles... Remember the third party controller your sibling/cousin/friend made you use when you visited his or her house in the NES days? Remember the pain you felt when the joystick wasn’t quite right and they were hosing you on Mortal Kombat while you were busy trying to figure out why your character kept kicking? Well the  All Controller isn’t like that at all. The All Controller is a third party project that, in theory, can be used on any console. You can set up macros and speed buttons and connect to the Xbox, the PS4, or the Switch. It also has a 40 hour battery and can connect to PCs. “Connecting to consoles will be as easy as plugging in the custom USB adapter,” write the creators. “This device will allow the ALL Controller to connect to the XBox 360, XBox One, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. Added support for Nintendo Wii, WiiU and Switch will be added as well. On top of that, the USB adapter wi...

Supercomputer Can Calculate in 1 Second What Would Take You 6 Billion Years

It's shiny, fast and ultrapowerful. But it's not the latest Alpha Romeo. A physics laboratory in Tennessee just unveiled Summit, likely to be named the world's speediest and smartest supercomputer. Perhaps most exciting for the U.S.? It's faster than China's. Hot 100 smartphones The supercomputer — which fills a server room the size of two tennis courts — can spit out answers to 200 quadrillion (or 200 with 15 zeros) calculations per second, or 200 petaflops, according to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, where the supercomputer resides. "If every person on Earth completed one calculation per second, it would take the world population 305 days to do what Summit can do in 1 second," according to an ORNL statement. Put another way, if one person were to run the calculations, hypothetically, it would take 2.3 trillion days, or 6.35 billion years. [9 Super-Cool Uses for Supercomputers] The former "world's fastest supercomputer," called S...
