UBER self-driven trend

Uberannounced it intends to replace
human drivers with self driving
autonomous cars
Reduce the cost of Ubering
safety on roads and more affordable
transportation.
The company has recruited numerous
of autonomous-vehicle researchers
strong from Google and Lyft, which
cooperates with General Motors.

UBER self-driven trend

In September, it began testing its self-driving Ford Fusions in Pittsburgh; engineers rode in the
drivers seat, ready to take over whenever things got tricky.
Uber then introduced self-driving Volvo XC90s to San Francisco in December, and riders who
requested an uberX were matched with one of these vehicles if one was available. Just days later,
however, the California Department of Motor Vehicles revoked the registrations for its self-driving
cars, as the company didnt have the proper permits.
But Uber being Uber, the fleet of Volvos were on their way to Arizona within days. Uber already
operates a self-driving car program in the state
Uber also recently acquired car start-up Otto, which specializes in self-driving trucks

On-demand aviation
A network of small, electric
aircraft that take off and land
vertically (called VTOL aircraft
for Vertical Take-off and
Landing, and pronounced veetol), will enable rapid,
reliable transportation
between suburbs and cities
and, ultimately, within cities.
Travel within 1 or 2 towns
A lot of bariers
