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.
