Waymo was formed out of Google’s self-driving car project in 2016 and has since grown into one of the most advanced and promising autonomous driving companies in the United States. Operating a system of autonomous ride-hailing vehicles in cities around the United States, the visionary company has transformed the dream of fully autonomous driving, once merely suggested in science fiction and the inventive imaginations of mid-century designers, into a tangible reality that can be experienced by city goers on the roads of today. With tens of millions of miles of autonomous real-world driving experience, Waymo’s technology represents a critical step in the future of fully autonomous driving. As an exhibition subject, the company’s unique background as a mobility business formed out of the auspices of one of the world’s most prominent information technology companies offers a cutting-edge perspective on the future of the automotive industry, providing a far-reaching view of the future of personal transportation.
