Anthony Lewandowski

DARPA's always been intrigued with...

My PhD advisor came down and was really excited about this DARPA Grand Challenge thing and the idea that you'd have a robot run across the desert at 50 miles an hour just sounded exciting, having spent the last couple of weeks walking behind a robot at very low speed.

My name is Anthony Lewandowski.

There's a steering actuator on the top here, which allows us to modify the steering angle.

So basically, if you're driving, you start to follow the left, you steer left, that makes you turn the left, and then you get centripetal acceleration that puts you back up to the right.

It was really a proof-of-concept exercise.

Can you even make this happen once?

and puts Anthony at the center of an enormous legal battle between these tech giants.

Uber is hitting the brakes on its self-driving cars after one of them hit and killed a woman in Arizona.

Cars without drivers are here.

Nice gradual turn.

Felt very safe.

It's a smooth ride, though.

Please stand up.

Everybody that's rideshare, union members, or someone who drives a vehicle, stand up.

They're doing this because they stand to make an unfathomable amount of money if they eliminate driving jobs for working class people.
