Zoox, Amazon's self-driving unit, has hit the road with its driverless robotaxi for the first time.
Founded in 2014, Zoox has been working to develop a fully autonomous vehicle that caters to the ride-hailing population. Just like a customer could call an Uber, Lyft or taxi for a ride to the airport, Zoox envisions a future where customers use its app to order a ride in a vehicle that drives itself.
The robotaxi doesn't have a steering wheel, pedals or driver's seat. Instead, it relies on a network of sensors to move through a city.
