Greetings from CES 2020! | Engadget

[ad_1] For Engadget editors, life is just a series of moments while you wait for CES to come back around again. Sometimes it almost feels like we never left. But we did. And now we’re back. CES 2020 is about to get started in sunny (and slightly smelly) Las Vegas. As always there will be […]

AT&T’s real 5G comes to NYC and five other cities

Las Vegas autonomous shuttle crash happened due to lack of manual control

[ad_1] Apparently, the truck driver thought the shuttle would stop at a “reasonable” distance from the truck. Although the shuttle did start slowing down when it was 98.4 feet away, it’s not programmed to stop until it’s only 9.8 feet away from obstacles. The attendant hit the emergency stop button when the vehicle was 10.2 […]
