experiments for kids Why Ford Made A Guy Dress As A Seat In A 'Fake' Driverless Car

Ford collaborated with Virginia Tech's Transportation Institute to experiment in Washington, DC and Virginia with a 'fake' driverless car.

The Detroit carmaker provided the Transit Connect vehicle and a driver dressed up in a car seat suit so that the car would appear as if it were driverless even though it did indeed have a driver.

The experiment explored how driverless cars can communicate with pedestrians, bicyclists and other drivers.

Researchers now think it would be wise for self-driving car designers and programmers in the future to develop a common, universal language so that the vehicles can signal their intentions. Humans outside cars and human drivers have over a century developed a sort of unspoken language to avoid mishaps. Computers in self-driving cars obviously don't possess this language, and it would be hard to teach it to them.
