Jose Chameleone was spotted cruising through the streets of downtown Phoenix, Arizona in America in Google's brainchild WAYMO self-driving car. The singer looked cosy and comfortable in the backseat with an empty driver's seat along with company in the passenger seat. However, the car operates under defined conditions that the rider's comfort depends on.

In the video he posted of himself, two minutes away from being dropped off, another car of its kind is spotted driving away from the same junction he stops at. On the inside, Chameleone is enjoying his ride to the twists and turns of the wheel and a dashboard display of his journey and drive duration.

But there's nothing mysterious about what is happening behind the scenes. Pure technology and environment interaction and integration, that according to rapper Navio, "Afterall… it’s Chamilli the technology…. @jchameleon" the singer is worthy of.

The car is packed with technology and gadgets that optimise its self-driving system. While it may cause some concern, there's no denying that it offers some comfort for <a href="https://www.pulse.ug/lifestyle/this-video-has-us-rethinking-ordering-ridesharing-after-a-night-out/d8nd25l">people who would rather not get inside a car with a human driver</a>.

"Waymo can handle the entire dynamic driving task within a geographic area and under certain defined conditions," a statement from the company reads in part.

Waymo’s Sensors allow it to see 360 degrees, both in the daytime and at night, working to paint a detailed 3D picture of the world, showing moving and still objects.

Its LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) system works day and night by beaming out millions of laser pulses per second all around it.

Its vision system is a <a href="https://www.pulse.ug/lifestyle/beauty-health/why-you-look-good-in-mirrors-but-not-photos-solution-professional-photographer/2shyzj4">high-resolution camera system</a> designed to work at long range, in daylight and low-light conditions. It detects colour and so helps the vehicles to spot traffic lights, construction zones, school buses, and the flashing lights of emergency vehicles.

Its radar uses wavelengths to perceive objects and movement in front, behind, and on both sides of the vehicle. The wavelengths are able to travel around objects like raindrops, and weather conditions such as fog and snow.

The car has additional sensors, including an audio detection system that helps the vehicles hear police and emergency vehicle sirens up to hundreds of feet away, and a GPS to supplement Waymo’s extensive understanding of its physical location in the world.
