The company says it carried passengers in its self-driving vehicle on public roads in California for the first time over the weekend.
The robotaxi relies on its bidirectional driver capabilities and four-wheel steering to change direction, moving on
its own accord. A Zoox spokesperson said in an email to Gizmodo that the robotaxi can handle left and right-hand turns and bi-directional turns, and can navigate traffic lights, cyclists, pedestrians, vehicles, and other road agents on its route. It embarked on its first drive while carrying passengers on Saturday after receiving approval from the California Department of Motor Vehicles last week. The company announced the DMV’s approval in a Twitter
on Monday, writing, “It marked the first time in history that a purpose-built robotaxi—with no manual controls—drove autonomously on open public roads with passengers. It was a huge milestone for Zoox and the AV industry.”Although Zoox did receive permit approval, it is not applicable on all roads and currently can only be used to bring employees between its two office buildings located about one mile apart.
The Zoox spokesperson said in the email, “Zoox conducted the maiden run of its employee shuttle service in Foster City, California, marking the first time in history a purpose-built autonomous robotaxi without traditional driving controls carried passengers on open public roads.”Each new laptop model comes with a free storage upgrade. The 1TB version of each is priced the same as the 512GB version which basically means the 1TB version is $200 off.
