MIT builds self-driving scooters to add to autonomous vehicle options

Google believes fully autonomous vehicles could be ideal transport for mobility-impaired people, such as the aged or blind. After hitting roadways with self-driving cars, researchers at MIT have adapted the same technology to be used on scooters and indoors.
