The autonomous individual, striving to realize himself and prove his worth, has created all that is great in literature, art, music, science and technology.

The first autonomous cars date back to the late 20th century. But recent increases in sophistication and reductions in cost - reflected, for example, in cheap LIDAR systems, which can 'see' a street in 3D in a way similar to that of the human eye - are now bringing autonomous cars closer to the market.

Carlo Ratti

The notion of having a fleet of autonomous ocean-going vehicles wandering the world collecting data is something out of fiction.

James Gosling
