Nuro navigates to fully autonomous driving [Video]

In Episode 174 of The Robot Report Podcast, we feature an interview with Andrew Clare, chief technology officer of Nuro Inc. It’s a short workweek in the U.S. with the Thanksgiving holiday, so we skipped the news this week and went straight into the interview with Clare.

He discusses the company‘s evolution in the autonomous vehicle space, focusing on its Nuro Driver technology. Clare elaborates on Nuro’s expansion of its business model to include partnerships with automotive OEMs and the potential market for AI-based driving.

Clare also highlights the challenges of urban versus highway driving, the importance of safety culture, and the technology stack required for autonomous vehicles. We also touch on the differences between SAE Level 4 and Level 5 autonomy, as well as the future direction of Nuro in integrating hardware and software.
