Start with the sensors, then design the rest: How Zoox built its robotaxi
Summary
Ars Technica's profile of Zoox explains a sensor-first, bidirectional robotaxi design built for dense urban environments. It highlights corner-mounted sensors for broad coverage, symmetric axles for agile, bidirectional maneuvering, and heavy redundancy across the drive, power, and HVAC systems, plus interior calm design; Zoox deployments span Las Vegas, San Francisco, and Austin, with Miami planned.
