Google company is creating another out-of-a-dream technology, self driving car. Who wouldn't want that right? Driving is a tiring and time consuming job, with a lot of money, we can hire a driver. But with a car that can drive itself, who need a driver? 

What Google did is that they add components to existing cars by replacing certain compartments. Remove the steering wheel and pedals, and replace it with software and sensors. This car can be instructed by using smartphone and sending the location of the passengers. All the passengers need to do is press the start button or stop button in case of emergency. Some of the details are below:

• Sensor ; Laser, radar, and camera to detect objects in all direction
• Interior ; It is design for riding
• Battery ; Electric battery, Eco-friendly

Basically, the two-seated electric car is equipped with map and sensor information so that it can detect what street it's on and which lane it's in. In addition to that, the sensor uses a software that will help detect objects around the car based on the objects' size, shape, and movement pattern. This will lead the software to predicts the movement of the objects such as if the pedestrian will cross the street or not. Based on the predictions, the software will choose the right speed and route. This self driving car is able to avoid other cars or objects, and stop when needed.
