Bloomberg has released information about the repeatedly abandoned, taken over and re-abandoned Titan project, its ambitious self-driving car. Now the release date is out, 2025, and details like it won’t have a steering wheel or pedals..
Does Project Titan sound familiar to you? It is an ambitious project supposedly launched by Apple in 2014 and which has been abandoned several times, and resumed several other times, all this if we pay attention to the rumors that have been published about it, because Apple has never confirmed or denied anything that has been said about its idea to make an autonomous vehicle.
Details like that of Apple would have already taken one of its first steps: the development of the processor that will control everything. With the use of artificial intelligence and neural networks, this processor would allow the Apple vehicle, along with dozens of sensors in every corner, not to need a steering wheel or pedals.
The launch date says the same source which is expected in four years, the end of 2025, although it could be delayed depending on the tests that will be carried out until then. Another of the fundamental points is the manufacture of the vehicle, for which Apple should find a collaboration with one of the current manufacturers.. The company would like to manufacture the vehicle in the United States, and of course it will be 100% electric, compatible with conventional chargers.
A fully autonomous car without steering wheel or pedals by the end of 2025? It’s hard to believe how autonomous vehicles are evolving, and the news of its reliability.
