Autonomously navigating the real world: lessons from the PG&E outage

At Waymo, our mission is to be the world’s most trusted driver. We know trust is built through consistent behavior over time—earned through every mile we drive and every interaction we have with the community. This past Saturday, as a widespread PG&E outage cut power to nearly one-third of San Francisco, our service was put to the test. With power now restored, we want to share an account of our operations during the outage and how we are evolving to better serve the city.

I’m excited to share UVT-RS, my first project in #Rust   .
It’s a collection of crates to work with Uncrewed Vehicle Trajectory (UVT) files, from reading, writing, and generating files with #ROS bags & MCAP, to visualizing them in 2D and in 3D.

I learned a lot about Rust packaging and rosbag internals while building this, and I look forward to using Rust even more in #Robotics

Husband, software developer, environmentalist, pacifist and anti-fascist.

I play percussion 🥁 and accordion 🪗 in an ethno-popular group.

At work, I am involved in autonomous robot navigation 🚜 ROS/ROS2 based.

While, in my spare time, the 🚴 bicycle dominates over the pyramid structure, afterwards I go hiking, I go walking, if there is snow I go skiing carrying my Canon-40D 📸

I have been baking with my family's sourdough for more than ten years 🍞

My favourite mottos: "Save the bear" 🐻 and "Anti-fascist pastasciutta" 🍝

Marito, sviluppatore software, ambientalista, pacifista e anti-fascista.

Suono le percussioni 🥁 e la fisarmonica 🪗 in un gruppo di musica etno-popolare.

In ambito lavorativo mi occupo di navigazione autonoma di robot 🚜 in ROS/ROS2.

Mentre nel mio tempo libero la 🚴 bicicletta domina sulla struttura piramidale, a seguire vado in montagna, vado a camminare, se c'è neve vado a sciare portandomi dietro la mia Canon-40D 📸

Da più di dieci anni panifico con la pasta-madre della mia famiglia 🍞

I miei motti preferiti: "Save the bear" 🐻 e "Pastasciutta anti-fascista" 🍝
