• It is a vehicle that can drive itself from one point to another without assistance from a driver; in other words, with an autopilot system (also called as autonomous car)

• It can steer itself while looking out for obstacles.

• It can accelerate itself to the correct speed limit.

• It can stop and go itself based on any traffic condition.

• It can take its passengers anywhere it wants to

• go safely, legally, and comfortably.

Google Driverless Car Project What?

A project dedicated to development of driverless car technology

When?

Informally since 2005

From 2010, by a formal team of 15 engineers from Google

Progress so far?

Google currently lobbying for driverless car laws in more states in the US

Nevada as the 1st state having passed such law in mid-2011 (operation of driverless cars)

Challenges

1. Cost Issue

Total cost: US$ 300,000

includes:• Laser system - $ 70,000• Hi-tech Equipment - $ 150,000

Estimated market of $ 2 Trillion in the US alone

OVERVALUED Market? Is it a US Opportunity?Or a GOOGLE Opportunity?

• Driverless car” still illegal in 50 states

Challenges6. Political & Regulatory Issues

who is to blame in an accident?

22

Can “passengers” be intoxicated?

7. Social issues

Does the Innovation make the product more profitable?

Short Term

- Difficult to make this innovation profitable.

- Market is still small needs time to grow

- Issue of economies of scale

Long Term - Demand is higher.

More profitable because of cost saving- Cars don’t have to be as robust (Less accidents)- More time as passengers, so they are less aware of how well a car performs. (Manufacturers change focus)

Future Implication

Page 24: At High Speed, on the Road to a Driverless Future …heindl/ebte-2014ws-Presentation...Driverless Future (NewYork Times May 27, ... •Mobileye is technology firm not automobile, ...

Consumers Desire more Automated Automobiles

Disruptive Innovation…

25

Or sustaining transformational innovation?

Page 26: At High Speed, on the Road to a Driverless Future …heindl/ebte-2014ws-Presentation...Driverless Future (NewYork Times May 27, ... •Mobileye is technology firm not automobile, ...

The driver less car’s technologies improves vehicle's stability

helps to minimize loss of control.

Driver less cars are designed to minimize accidents by

addressing the main causes of collisions: driving

error, distraction and drowsiness.
