At Last, a Self-Driving Car That Can Explain Itself

Cars That Think

After all, Apple’s Siri , Microsoft’s Cortana , Amazon’s Alexa and Google Home are all very impressive , but these systems function solely on voice input: They can’t understand or react to the environment around them. The representation is constructed by the fusion of data from radar, lidar, and other sensors.
