The Google Car are developing rapidly both in terms of the mechanical part and the software and on the night of Halloween have learned to recognize children and avoid them.
Googe focusing on his car without pilot and the US already are 48 Google Car that every day make testing even extreme to prevent accidents and improve road safety.
For this reason Halloween night, Google, has asked some American families to move into the street while they were running these cars to test if indeed the same fail to recognize children having a different appearance from that of adults.
The tests were very encouraging and even Google has managed to improve the recognition software to make emergency stops or detours in the event that a child cross the road suddenly. Google Car should improve further while allowing the internal program to recognize the areas where there are schools to reduce speed or activate additional sensors for the detection of children.
Google commented :
“Halloween is a very important event to implement new features and improve the ones we have already implemented. This week many children dressed flock introno to Google with their families. So we asked him to walk around the Google Car. This allows the sensors in the car and to our software to perform many detections and improve recognition of children even when they are disguised.
The cars will learn very quickly to recognize the children and proceed with more caution. The software when a child sees a stronger focus by reducing the speed “
