THE AURORA DRIVER—THE AUTONOMOUS DRIVER FOR EVERY JOURNEY

THE AURORA DRIVER—THE
AUTONOMOUS DRIVER FOR EVERY
JOURNEY

At Aurora, we're building self-driving technology to transform transportation.
Designed for trucks and passenger cars, the Aurora Driver will radically
transform the logistics and ride-hailing industries, making the way we move
safer, smarter, and more accessible.


TECHNOLOGY THAT TRANSFORMS TRANSPORTATION

Aurora is building the technology to transform how goods and people move across
our roads. We’re paving the way for a future where autonomous driving technology
can save lives, help logistics fleets scale to meet ever-increasing demand, and
make our supply chain smoother for customers, businesses, and the carriers and
fleets that connect them.


INFOLIST ITEMS

 * 
   Safer roads
   
   Every year, 40,000 people lose their lives on America’s roads. Autonomous
   cars and trucks can reduce crashes and save lives. Unlike humans, they never
   get tired or distracted, and they’re better at seeing everything in their
   path.
   
   
 * 
   Faster, more efficient freight
   
   The US trucking industry transports over 10 billion tons of freight per year,
   connecting people with everything from milk to medicine. At scale, autonomous
   trucks could drive nearly 24 hours a day, helping carriers scale their fleets
   to meet demand.
   
   
 * 
   Scaling our supply chain
   
   With more efficient supply chains thanks to autonomous trucks, logistics
   companies will be able to increase routes, serve larger geographical areas,
   and get goods wherever they need to go faster.
   
   
 * 
   More access for everyone
   
   25.5 million people with a disability in the U.S. have difficulty traveling
   outside of the home. Autonomous cars can provide safe, reliable mobility to
   everyone, including those who can’t drive.
   
   





DESIGNED FOR ALL VEHICLES

The Aurora Driver is built with a common core of technology which includes
hardware, software, infrastructure, and data services designed to operate a
broad set of vehicle types, from a class-8 truck to a passenger sedan.


 * 360° VIEW—POWERFULLY DESIGNED PERCEPTION
   
   Our custom-designed sensor suite contains powerful high-resolution cameras,
   long-range imaging radar, and our proprietary FirstLight Lidar. Because
   FirstLight is engineered to accurately detect the velocity of moving objects
   and people and see more than twice the distance of even the most advanced
   conventional lidar systems, our vehicles can travel safely at highway
   speeds. 


 * STRONGER WITH SIMULATION
   
   Simulation testing drives the development of the Aurora Driver. We run
   millions of simulations every day in our industry-leading virtual testing
   suite, allowing us to expose the Aurora Driver to rare scenarios and safely
   test its ability to handle them.


 * BUILDING THE AURORA DRIVER FOR TRANSFERABILITY
   
   Because we’re building the Aurora Driver to operate both trucks and passenger
   vehicles, advances made in either vehicle type directly benefit the other.
   For example, the same high-speed driving capabilities that allow our trucks
   to operate on highways will also benefit ride-hailing customers traveling on
   popular, high-speed trips to and from the airport.




SEE THE AURORA DRIVER IN ACTION

WE ARE CONSTANTLY TRAINING, TESTING, AND RELEASING NEW CAPABILITIES ESSENTIAL TO
BUILDING THE AURORA DRIVER FOR COMMERCIAL USE. HERE ARE A FEW OF THE LATEST:

 * Texas U-Turns
 * Smart Lane Changes
 * Downhill Braking

A Texas U-Turn (aka Texas Boomerang or Texas Turnaround) connects
opposing-direction one-way frontage roads off of a highway, allowing vehicles to
turn around. It’s critical for theAurora Driver to handle these turns as it
travels back and forth on Texas highways, hauling goods.

We have all had similar experiences where we’ve had to make split-second
decisions about how to adjust our driving. Here, the Aurora Driver recognizes
that another vehicle is now occupying the space and safely returns to its lane,
ultimately executing the lane change once it can safely do so.

Long downhill grades can be challenging to navigate, even for the most
experienced drivers. Check out how the Aurora Driver autonomously applies engine
brakes to descend the hill on our Dallas to El Paso route — making it safer for
all drivers on the road

Delivering self-driving with the world’s top transportation companies

We've partnered with suppliers and freight companies to put autonomous trucks
and cars on the map. We're working with PACCAR, FedEx, Uber, Werner, Schneider,
and Volvo Trucks—and our ecosystem continues to grow.



WE RECENTLY ANNOUNCED THE EXPANSION OF OUR AUTONOMOUS LINEHAUL PILOT WITH AURORA
AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO OUR CONTINUED WORK TOGETHER AS WE TEST THE INTEGRATION OF
AUTONOMOUS TECHNOLOGY INTO OUR OPERATIONS.
