Thinking about driverless cars

Recently, it has been fortunate to learn about Google's New world-facing, driverless car, though it hasn't been available yet, but for the moment it has had a huge impact, and now I'm going to talk about my big idea of the future of this driverless car.

Driverless cars, as the name implies, driverless cars, that is, automation, computers, sensors, Internet and other information technology dominated by the driving system under the car category produced.

Here, I do not discuss the technical analysis of the car, I am not proficient in this aspect, I want to talk about is his future trend.

I have seen some articles, or some scholars have said that the arrival of driverless cars will make the automobile industry unprecedented development, because it makes those who do not drive can also buy a car, it does not require people to drive, and because the car is not driven by people, so the car generated by the traffic problem must not run off the owner, Such a good thing, the result must be the success of the automotive industry ah. It sounds like it's really the case, but it's inappropriate to think about it. Now the main reason is, if the car is not you come, why do you need to buy. And a waste of parking space. Suppose that a taxi is driven by a robot, then it can be equated with an unmanned car. In other words, if driverless cars are all turned into taxis and connected to the Internet, as is the case with the ever-evolving taxi software, these are all connected together and the situation is completely different.

It takes a man to drive a car and a taxi company to buy a driverless car. The answer is that the taxi driver's job disappears, of course, so it's not just the disappearance of the taxi driver, but the majority of the drivers, and it's not really good news for the people in this profession.

The people who read my article may say, you are not talking about the development of driverless cars, how to pull the driver industry. Let me slow down.

According to my description above, the taxi no longer needs the driver, so that the cost of taxi has been effectively reduced, and therefore the taxi price will be reduced, for many people, do not want to take a taxi mainly because compared to buses and subways, taxis are quite expensive, and there are certain security problems. And all of this is no longer a problem. Because the driverless car came.

Taxi cost reduction, cost reduction, and not by people to drive, in the lead into the customer itself, everything to the positive change, will be more and more people choose to take a taxi, because such a taxi and your own car is the same, why to buy a car. And because the price is cheap, the bus and so on will change, coupled with intelligent driving plan, car congestion problem can be improved, then, the conclusion is that the automotive industry will gradually shrink. We know that the car turnover and traffic accidents have a great relationship, intelligent driving, so that the accident rate is significantly reduced, the replacement time will be elongated, the automobile industry will lose a great market, but also because of the convenience of public taxis, private cars gradually reduced, the car gradually to enterprises and public facilities, the Government and corporate Union, has also made the market lose its vitality. Finally, the loss of the production of the automotive industry, will inevitably become a dependency of some industries, and as high-tech companies such as Google is the recipient of these traditional industries, because they do not need their own production, only need to find a foundry, and they are responsible for the design, Internet thinking will affect this is the world every corner.

Therefore, we can see that in the near future, the automobile industry will be due to unmanned driving technology to make a huge change, and the so-called change in the direction, is not the so-called automobile industry, but slowly decline in the infinite power of the internet, gradually become the internet connected to the world a way, Perhaps this is the future of the Internet of things in the embryonic world, whether the truth is the same as I said, let the time to tell you.
