Possible GM/Google Hookup on Self-Driving Tech, New Super Cruise Features
Possible GM/Google Hookup on Self-Driving Tech, New Super Cruise Features
General Motors has signaled interest in partnering with Google on autonomous-car technology, making it the first major automaker to publicly suggest a supplier-like tie-up with the search giant.
“We make cars, we know how to make cars. They’ve got great technical capabilities. We are very interested in how those two might work together,” Mark Reuss, GM executive vice president, told Bloomberg. “I love working with them. I think they feel the same way.”
First, automated lane-changing won’t be offered, although GM considered it. Two, a camera, likely the same sort of infrared camera that the Lexus LS uses to monitor the driver’s eye movements and detect drowsiness, will track the driver’s attention span and use Cadillac’s vibrating seat to shake an inattentive driver back into consciousness. Like Autopilot, however, Super Cruise also will bring the car to a full stop if the driver ignores visual and audio warnings to take control. How exactly that might happen on a crowded interstate remains a mystery, however.
