Waymo introduces sixth-generation autonomous driving system with cost-effective camera and lidar upgrade.
Alphabet's Waymo introduces its sixth-generation autonomous driving system, featuring a 13-camera, 4-lidar sensor suite for its electric self-driving robotaxis. The new system is designed to operate more cost-effectively, reducing the number of cameras from 29 and lidar sensors from 5 while maintaining safety and performance in various weather conditions. The sixth-generation system is currently being tested on public roads and is expected to be more accessible and ready for consumers sooner than previous models.
