Construction zones are one of the hardest edge cases for autonomous vehicles. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how AV companies are teaching their systems to read temporary signage, adapt to changing lane geometry, and interpret hand signals from flaggers. They look at real-world data from Waymo and Aurora Innovation, discuss why lidar alone isn't enough, and explain the role of transformer-based AI models in handling these unpredictable environments. If you've ever wondered why robotaxis still struggle with orange cones and blinking arrow boards, this episode breaks down the specific engineering challenges and the progress being made in mid-2026. #AutonomousVehicles #SelfDrivingCars #ConstructionZones #AVSafety #Waymo #AuroraInnovation #Lidar #AI #EdgeCases #Robotaxis #AutonomousTrucks #TrafficManagement #TransformerModels #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechPodcast #EngineeringChallenges Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
