The “hacker” George Hotz created in a month unmanned car using your own car Honda Acura, a computer, cameras, a GPS navigator and tape, reports Bloomberg. Hotz managed to connect to the central nodes of the car for circulation on roads without a driver.
“People see how lead other people and learn. I teach the car in the same way. And in result, intuition appears, which you can not get with the rules, “says George Hotz to Bloomberg.
For December Hotz ‘taught’ the car to control the steering, acceleration and braking, as well as to stay in your lane for many km.
In the future the young hacker plans to sell its technology as inexpensive package six cameras (such as smartphones) and the software that will drive the car. Hotz think your invention will cost a thousand dollars and will be sold both automakers and consumers.
