What it’s like to ride a driverless vehicle in Singapore

The Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) showcased its autonomous vehicle to the press, a year after the Singapore Autonomous Vehicle Initiative (SAVI) was set up. This 7-seater driverless car has a maximum speed of 40 km/h and is equipped with a diverse range of sensors to auto-drive the vehicle safely. It has a path-planning module embedded in the system, a 360-degree view of its surroundings and is able to detect vehicles and pedestrians using geometric and motion features.
