Uber is using Waymo tech in its self-driving cars. That could be an expensive problem. - Business Insider

A self-driving vehicle used for test drives conducted by Uber Technologies in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"will likely" have to strike a deal with Waymo or develop it's own software, the company said.

While it was unclear by when the company needed to decide on its next move in the blockbuster trade secrets dispute, Uber, in a quarterly securities filing on Tuesday, said that a detour in its software development "could limit or delay our production of autonomous vehicle technologies." Waymo began as a project within sister company Google a decade ago, while Uber launched its effort four years ago.Waymo told Reuters in a statement that the independent software expert's findings "further confirm Waymo's allegations that Uber misappropriated our software intellectual property. We will continue to take the necessary steps to ensure our confidential information is not being used by Uber.

Waymo had alleged in court filings in 2017 that Uber was "misappropriating two, highly valuable Waymo trade secrets related to planner software," which processes data from sensors on the vehicle and controls its movement.
