How Google designed experience for driveless cars

How Google designed experience for driveless cars

Waymo began as the Google

Self-Driving Car Project

THE APP'S MAIN FOCUS WAS TO INCREASE PEOPLES TRUST ON DRIVERLESS CARS.

In lieu of human drivers, screens confirm that you’ve found the right car.

An ambient soundtrack plays until you push the ’start ride’ button in the car or on your app.

Waymo’s app uses carefully marked blue shading to indicate where cars can legally pull over for pickups.

People don’t always understand a new technology until they experience it, so it’s on us to help them get there.
