China has put together a car that can supposedly drive itself, which
was unveiled at the Northeast Asia Investment and Trade Expo. FAW
tested the sedan at speeds of up to 37 mph but said the car can
actually reach a top speed of 93 mph, which is about 93 mph faster
than I'd like to go in a driverless car.
According to the newspaper, the specially equipped HQ3, which
monitors the road via two onboard cameras and receives its
instructions from a computer, "has a strong ability to recognize the
environment around it and tackle turnoffs [and] street crossings, as
well as broken lines instantly. It's also able to adapt to changes
of driving attitude and natural lighting, as well as shadows of
trees and bridges."In case you didn't understand all that let me
translate: it will crash into the first thing it sees. And at speeds
up to 93 mph!
