Waymo Event to Unveil Next Steps For Self-Driving Technology

Waymo-CEO John Krafcik will be unveiling the next steps for the company at an event this coming Tuesday in NYC. The Google sister Waymo was split off last year as a separate company in an effort to commercialize its self-driving technology that Google had been developing since 2009.

What exactly will be unveiled on March 27th is not yet clear. Speculations are spinning from the announcement of new partnerships allowing to make Waymo technology faster available for the public to the launch of Waymo’s own commercial service, such as a robotaxi fleet. Or maybe something totally new, such as self-flying cars?

I guess we have to be patient and wait until Tuesday.

The live stream will be available here at 7am PDT / 10am EDT:
