She created a portable, laser backpack for 3-D mapping that creates fast, automatic and realistic inside images.

They ended up relying on a technique used in robotics, called SLAM (for \"simultaneous localization and mapping\".) A combination of good sensors and good algorithms, it can find the backpack, construct a map and then build the 3-D models.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Localizing the backpack - that took awhile,\" she said. \"We had to try many different things.

It could help during construction, for instance, if a plumber sees that an electrician's wires are in the way of his pipes. It could be used in commercial real estate sales - agents could explore a property without actually visiting it. If the backpack has an energy sensor, it could measure everything emitted by lights. It could create drawings of ancient buildings that no longer have blueprints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, companies like Google are putting simplified, consumer-grade versions of the backpack's 3-D mapping algorithm into phones, allowing users to create 3-D maps of rooms and other interior environments. It doesn't have the customizability or the accuracy of the backpack, but it's still an impressive feat to have that 3-D mapping power in your mobile phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zakhor is particularly excited by the backpack's potential to save lives during fires or earthquakes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"First responders can figure out, when they get to a site, their plan of attack in terms of rescuing people,\" she said. \"It allows you to do much more methodical planning of how you send your people inside a collapsed building to rescue people...which staircases are connected to floors, where all the sprinklers are, or where the emergency exits are.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Someday it could test the health of our interior spaces, if loaded with air-quality sensors that measure things like atmospheric pressure, carbon dioxide, air temperature and particulate levels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The beauty of the backpack,\" she said, \"is that, as I'm walking through, I collect as many signals as I possibly can.\"\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Hyper-realistic video games are made using a technique called 3-D mapping.

The device functions like a conductor to relay data messages between the many electronic modules in a car that control everything from power steering to low fuel alerts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as critical as the computer centers are for the operation of a car, they are vulnerable to being hacked because they lack firewall protection commonly found in home computers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the CAN bus was developed, there were no computer hackers,” Kitchen said. “If you study this data, it’s very easy to reverse engineer what the exact commands are to do various things in a vehicle, like put on the brakes, or disable the brakes,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if self-driving vehicles aren’t right around the corner, Silicon Valley’s tech talent and expertise in machine learning, coupled with advancements in laser and radar sensors, are driving the innovations needed to make autonomous vehicles a reality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_74370\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2015/09/901_FrameGrab_Audi_car1-e1441301738248.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-74370\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2015/09/901_FrameGrab_Audi_car1-e1441301738248.jpg\" alt=\"Nine companies in California, including Audi, have permits to test their prototype self-driving cars on public roads.

The cars were given special red license plates. Miller says they’re hoping to see the legislation spread nationwide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For Google, the interest is reducing the number of accidents and fatalities that are caused by human error on the road. The technology is not going to be distracted by grabbing the phone or eating lunch or putting mascara on,” says Miller.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google hasn’t said what its business plan is for the technology, but many in the industry expect fully self-driving cars to be available in showrooms as early as 2025. That raises a host of legal issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In California, the biggest issue right now has to do with liability,” says Daniel Gage, spokesman for the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gage says while a lot of car companies are developing their own autonomous technology, they’re opposing California’s self-driving car bill over legal concerns. If one of these cars crashes itself, automakers don’t want to be held responsible when a third party like Google installs the technology. “This is a big issue for automakers. It always has been and it probably always will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Eventually there will be incidents and there will be litigation,” says Bryant Walker Smith, fellow at Stanford Law School. Privacy groups, he says, are concerned about the personal data these cars might record, since they clearly know where you are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there’s the question of how tough safety standards should be. “Should these vehicles be expected to drive perfectly without any collisions ever? Should they be expected to perform as well as a perfect human driver or an average human driver or better than an impaired human driver?” says Smith.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even trickier are cases where we make moral decisions as drivers. “Say if a vehicle has to choose between hitting a child in the street or swerving and going off of a cliff. That’s a decision that someone would make in the spur of the moment. Do they save their life or somebody else’s? What decision would a vehicle make and who would be responsible for making that decision?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If these seem like heavy issues for a state agency to figure out, Smith says there will be a transition to self-driving automobiles. Automakers have already rolled out technology that warns drivers about their blind spot and helps them avoid accidents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the questions that remain, the impact, says Smith, will be huge. “Our existing world is one in which 30,000 people die in the United States on the road every year. Drivers who are impaired or unqualified are behind the wheel. I would ask is the status quo acceptable?” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the California Legislature passes the self-driving cars bill, the Governor has until September 30th to sign it.\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nHere's a video from Google showcasing their technology:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdgQpa1pUUE]\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"California is considering rules that would allow self-driving cars on the road, but making rules for robots is no simple task.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1346782211,"stats":{"hasAudio":true,"hasVideo":true,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":24,"wordCount":1035},"headData":{"title":"California Considers Giving Self-Driving Cars Green Light | KQED","description":"California is considering rules that would allow self-driving cars on the road, but making rules for robots is no simple task.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"California Considers Giving Self-Driving Cars Green Light","datePublished":"2012-08-24T21:11:06.000Z","dateModified":"2012-09-04T18:10:11.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"disqusIdentifier":"43000 http://science.kqed.org/quest/?post_type=audio_reports&p=43000","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2012/08/24/california-considers-giving-self-driving-cars-green-light/","disqusTitle":"California Considers Giving Self-Driving Cars Green Light","path":"/quest/43000/california-considers-giving-self-driving-cars-green-light","audioUrl":"http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/quest/2012/08/2012-08-27-quest.mp3","audioDuration":null,"audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/quest/2012/08/2012-08-27-quest.mp3\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_43009\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2012/08/Lexus-Photo1.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-43009\" title=\"Lexus-Photo1\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2012/08/Lexus-Photo1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of Google's self-driving cars.

(Image: Nevada DMV)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nevada and Florida have already passed similar bills and earlier this year, Nevada was the first state to officially license Google’s self-driving Priuses. The cars were given special red license plates. Miller says they’re hoping to see the legislation spread nationwide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For Google, the interest is reducing the number of accidents and fatalities that are caused by human error on the road. The technology is not going to be distracted by grabbing the phone or eating lunch or putting mascara on,” says Miller.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google hasn’t said what its business plan is for the technology, but many in the industry expect fully self-driving cars to be available in showrooms as early as 2025. That raises a host of legal issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In California, the biggest issue right now has to do with liability,” says Daniel Gage, spokesman for the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gage says while a lot of car companies are developing their own autonomous technology, they’re opposing California’s self-driving car bill over legal concerns. If one of these cars crashes itself, automakers don’t want to be held responsible when a third party like Google installs the technology. “This is a big issue for automakers. It always has been and it probably always will be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Eventually there will be incidents and there will be litigation,” says Bryant Walker Smith, fellow at Stanford Law School. Privacy groups, he says, are concerned about the personal data these cars might record, since they clearly know where you are.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there’s the question of how tough safety standards should be. “Should these vehicles be expected to drive perfectly without any collisions ever? Should they be expected to perform as well as a perfect human driver or an average human driver or better than an impaired human driver?” says Smith.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even trickier are cases where we make moral decisions as drivers. “Say if a vehicle has to choose between hitting a child in the street or swerving and going off of a cliff. That’s a decision that someone would make in the spur of the moment. Do they save their life or somebody else’s? What decision would a vehicle make and who would be responsible for making that decision?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If these seem like heavy issues for a state agency to figure out, Smith says there will be a transition to self-driving automobiles. Automakers have already rolled out technology that warns drivers about their blind spot and helps them avoid accidents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the questions that remain, the impact, says Smith, will be huge. “Our existing world is one in which 30,000 people die in the United States on the road every year. Drivers who are impaired or unqualified are behind the wheel. I would ask is the status quo acceptable?” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the California Legislature passes the self-driving cars bill, the Governor has until September 30th to sign it.\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nHere's a video from Google showcasing their technology:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/cdgQpa1pUUE'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/cdgQpa1pUUE'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/quest/43000/california-considers-giving-self-driving-cars-green-light","authors":["239"],"categories":["quest_8"],"tags":["quest_252","quest_262","quest_499","quest_13197","quest_1240","quest_11386","quest_13203","quest_13202","quest_10696","quest_2443","quest_3739","quest_2973"],"featImg":"quest_43009","label":"quest"},"quest_19238":{"type":"posts","id":"quest_19238","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"quest","id":"19238","score":null,"sort":[1307466037000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"hands-on-with-googles-android-accessory-development-kit","title":"Hands on with Google's Android Accessory Development Kit","publishDate":1307466037,"format":"standard","headTitle":"QUEST | KQED Science","labelTerm":{"site":"quest"},"content":"\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"left\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2011/06/5787435696_2e145009e6.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"ADK\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-15029\">\u003cem>ADK gives Arduino fans a new toy to mod their Android.\u003c/em>\u003c/span>Last month Google unveiled a gadget that wowed hardware enthusiasts.

It allows anyone on an unsecure Wi-Fi network to see when another person on that network is using a service like Facebook or Twitter, and hijack their login to appear as that user.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Firesheep was created by Eric Butler to highlight the lack of security on many websites (including popular ones like Google, Facebook and Twitter) and strongly encourage those companies to make their sites more secure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what does that mean for you? We've all become accustomed to seeing a lock appear on a website when we go through the checkout process. This indicates that the website is securely transmitting your credit card data data. Similarly your bank implements HTTPS across its site because that's vital to their business. But many other companies only implement HTTPS when you're logging into a site, but not for the duration of your visit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Often what happens is that during login a website will securely transmit your login information, but once you're logged in, your session is no longer secure. A cookie with your login information is saved on your browser so you don't need to keep logging in to browse. Every time you switch pages, that cookie information is transmitted to the web server. That's where Firesheep comes in. Firesheep steals your cookie information and allows another user to take over an account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I spoke with Chris Palmer, director of technology for the San Francisco based \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/\">Electronic Frontier Foundation \u003c/a>about Firesheep, HTTPS and web security:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: Why do we need HTTPS anyhow?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: Because it's the best available protocol for web applications that provides any security at all. Remember, HTTPS is the bare minimum baseline for web security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: If it's so vital, why haven't websites focused more on implementing HTTPS across their sites?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: There are several reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. If they are aware of the problem at all, web app developers continue to believe, incorrectly, that passive and/or active network attacks are difficult, expensive, and/or rare. In fact, passive and active network attacks are (and have been for some time; nevermind Firesheep) cheap, easy, and not uncommon. Therefore, developers don't realize they need to seek a solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Developers and business people incorrectly believe that \"encryption is computationally expensive\", and that therefore deploying HTTPS would require vastly more server resources. In fact, symmetric encryption performs on par with functions like compression that are universally understood to be affordable; web applications are \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input/output\">I/O-bound\u003c/a>, not CPU-bound; and most web sites pay an I/O cost far higher than necessary. Although HTTPS does incur some additional network I/O, most HTTP sites do more (or much more) network I/O than is necessary --- thus, HTTPS is not the problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result is that, if operators really do care about cost and performance, they can tune their sites to be faster and cheaper to run even with HTTPS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: Is it technically challenging to implement HTTPS?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: Not inherently. However, sites that have accumulated \"technical debt\" may have a high cost of change. The cost is not specific to HTTPS; technically indebted software always has a high cost for ANY change. Developers who labor for 5 - 10 years under the belief that HTTP is secure will have embedded that assumption into the core of their software, and un-doing the mistake can be expensive. But again, that is not specific to HTTPS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: There has recently been talk of \u003ca href=\"http://www.zscaler.com/blacksheep.html\">Blacksheep\u003c/a>, a browser plugin that alerts users when someone on the same network is using Firesheep. Does this offer protection from Firesheep?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: No.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: Eric Butler, the creator of Firesheep, has opened a can of worms.

It allows anyone on an unsecure Wi-Fi network to see when another person on that network is using a service like Facebook or Twitter, and hijack their login to appear as that user.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Firesheep was created by Eric Butler to highlight the lack of security on many websites (including popular ones like Google, Facebook and Twitter) and strongly encourage those companies to make their sites more secure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what does that mean for you? We've all become accustomed to seeing a lock appear on a website when we go through the checkout process. This indicates that the website is securely transmitting your credit card data data. Similarly your bank implements HTTPS across its site because that's vital to their business. But many other companies only implement HTTPS when you're logging into a site, but not for the duration of your visit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Often what happens is that during login a website will securely transmit your login information, but once you're logged in, your session is no longer secure. A cookie with your login information is saved on your browser so you don't need to keep logging in to browse. Every time you switch pages, that cookie information is transmitted to the web server. That's where Firesheep comes in. Firesheep steals your cookie information and allows another user to take over an account.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I spoke with Chris Palmer, director of technology for the San Francisco based \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/\">Electronic Frontier Foundation \u003c/a>about Firesheep, HTTPS and web security:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: Why do we need HTTPS anyhow?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: Because it's the best available protocol for web applications that provides any security at all. Remember, HTTPS is the bare minimum baseline for web security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: If it's so vital, why haven't websites focused more on implementing HTTPS across their sites?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: There are several reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. If they are aware of the problem at all, web app developers continue to believe, incorrectly, that passive and/or active network attacks are difficult, expensive, and/or rare. In fact, passive and active network attacks are (and have been for some time; nevermind Firesheep) cheap, easy, and not uncommon. Therefore, developers don't realize they need to seek a solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Developers and business people incorrectly believe that \"encryption is computationally expensive\", and that therefore deploying HTTPS would require vastly more server resources. In fact, symmetric encryption performs on par with functions like compression that are universally understood to be affordable; web applications are \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input/output\">I/O-bound\u003c/a>, not CPU-bound; and most web sites pay an I/O cost far higher than necessary. Although HTTPS does incur some additional network I/O, most HTTP sites do more (or much more) network I/O than is necessary --- thus, HTTPS is not the problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result is that, if operators really do care about cost and performance, they can tune their sites to be faster and cheaper to run even with HTTPS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: Is it technically challenging to implement HTTPS?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: Not inherently. However, sites that have accumulated \"technical debt\" may have a high cost of change. The cost is not specific to HTTPS; technically indebted software always has a high cost for ANY change. Developers who labor for 5 - 10 years under the belief that HTTP is secure will have embedded that assumption into the core of their software, and un-doing the mistake can be expensive. But again, that is not specific to HTTPS.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: There has recently been talk of \u003ca href=\"http://www.zscaler.com/blacksheep.html\">Blacksheep\u003c/a>, a browser plugin that alerts users when someone on the same network is using Firesheep. Does this offer protection from Firesheep?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: No.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>LK: Eric Butler, the creator of Firesheep, has opened a can of worms. Is this his fault?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CP: The worms were already legion and crawling around all over the place.
