TED Talk: How A Driverless Car Sees The Road By Chris Urmson of Google

I was at Google Atmosphere in 2011 and saw a very detailed presentation Google's driverless car as well as an evening event where we got a close-up view of the technology.

As Google states on their website regarding Google Atmosphere:  "This annual event unites 350 of the world’s leading CIOs to explore how successful businesses are using the cloud to develop innovative solutions to today’s business challenges. As with previous events, the focus will include thought leadership from noteworthy speakers and lively debates with business leaders, well-known authors and industry experts."

Below is a more recent (June 2015) TED Talk presentation by Chris Urmson of Google that does an excellent job demonstrating how Google's driverless car sees the road.
