Building a better ride means testing for the extreme. Go behind the scenes with our engineering team to see how we prepare our robotaxis for high-heat environments from two critical angles: ☀️ Perception: Extreme desert heat can alter camera alignments by fractions of a degree, and in autonomous driving, fractions matter. Watch how we simulated indoor solar radiation to ensure precise perception: https://lnkd.in/eC-y5fK7 ❄️ Cooling: To keep our IONIQ 5 robotaxi running safely under high-heat environments, our approach was straightforward: keep it simple. Staff Engineer Brian Corpuz breaks down how we engineered a cooler, smarter ride: https://lnkd.in/e4CDv6yU Two distinct engineering challenges, one non-negotiable goal: total safety in any environment.

How our robotaxi handles unpredictable driving behavior makes all the difference for the rider experience. When another vehicle cuts in aggressively, our robotaxi responds calmly and safely without sacrificing comfort. #wowwednesday

A day in the life of a Test Operator in Pittsburgh with Harrison! 🚗🤖 From uploading software stacks to inspecting our IONIQ 5 robotaxis, safety comes first on every part of Harrison's day. One of his favorite Pittsburgh testing routes? Downtown, Oakland, South Side, and the Strip District because it demonstrates how Motional's AV can navigate many different road environments. Want to build the future of autonomous mobility with us? We’re #hiring Test Operators in Pittsburgh and Las Vegas! Explore our open positions under the jobs tab on our LinkedIn page. 🚀

You might miss someone walking behind some bushes, but our robotaxi won’t. Navigating busy shopping areas like Town Square means keeping an eye out for what’s coming, even when it’s hidden from view. Thanks to 360° sensing and real-time tracking, we can see past blind spots to keep pedestrians and riders safe. 🌿 👀 #wowwednesday

True peace of mind comes from knowing your ride is always two steps ahead. See how our robotaxi detects a stalled vehicle ahead and decisively initiates a lane change, while yielding to provide time and space for the vehicle in front space to merge first. By reading the entire scene, we prioritize safety and keeping traffic moving efficiently for everyone. #wowwednesday
