Google’s Autonomous Cars Gets Their Own Company

Google’s Autonomous Cars Gets Their Own Company

Mary Cris Balancio

Google seems to be on a quest to dominate each and every kind of business they have invested in. It just came to attention that the tech giant's long running, self-driving car project will be having its own company under the search engine's parent company, Alphabet. With this in mind, it is not difficult to see how speculations of the tech company having a ride-hailing service came about.

According to reports, the system would have a range of large and small vehicles that would most likely start operating in small contained areas like school campuses. This is probably because it would be easier to manage and easier to program for and it would lessen issues of having licensing requirements that the usual full scale car deployment on public roads require.

The talks and speculations of having Google's autonomous cars offering hailing services is far from new, but this time, the reports of the plan appears to be more than likely well thought of and is looking like it will be finally come to fruition.

Self-driving cars are currently being seen by some as the Holy Grail, specifically Uber, who is currently counting on Alphabet's Google Ventures as a major investor. With the latest Google self-driving car program having its own self sustained company, the chances of putting some distance between these two latest initiatives are high.

Currently, this partnership is viewed by some people as a conflict of interest for both parties. What with Uber having their own self driving research project underway while Google has their own.

Aside from putting distance, earning a bit money, Google's plans for a campus-wide ride hailing service could be another way for the company to earn millions of miles under their belt. It could also help them on their research as to what their users' preferences are and what concerns could arise from these situations.

With the efforts of two major companies exerting its will on one project, a future filled with more autonomous cars will not only on be limited to campus-based roads, but we will also see them on expressways and city streets.
