I'd pass on reading this if you clicked through to the comments first. There's very little detail about how self driving cars work. This is a very basic survey of brands. Remember the Murray Gell-Man amnesia effect. Does anyone have real examples / links / videos of how self driving cars work?

Firstly, there are different approaches. Google and Uber seem to have a similar LIDAR + map approach. Tesla and Mobileeye have a camera focused approach.
The CEO of Mobileeye (who is an ex-machine learning professor) gave a very good, mildly technical talk on their approach at CVPR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8T7A3wqH3Q

The CEO of Mobileye is Ziv Aviram and he was never a professor. Amnon Shashua is the CTO, and he is still a machine learning professor at the Hebrew University.

I found this article very informative. Perhaps I knew most of these tidbit before, but I did like the summary and laymen's explanations, even if not detailed or feature-complete. This is the kind of info I relay to my father when he asks me how this all works.
