About self-driving vehicles produced by the company Apple has been rumored for a long time, but unfortunately we still haven't received an official statement. Apple although he did not offer more detailed information regarding this issue, he does not have to, as the former employeeanceven companies reveal this project to some extent. Engineers who worked in Apple on various projects they come up with a new startup called Aeva. As it turned out, part of this project is the development of intelligent sensors whose task is to recognize and process data from the surrounding world for the artificial intelligence of autonomous vehicles. According to many analysts, the combination of design with hardware and software processing is very suspiciously close to a potential product from Appyou.

It is a small white box that has advanced technology for recording elements located in the immediate vicinity of the vehicle, as well as slightly more distant objects. Aeva can work in all extreme weather conditions and even in reduced visibility or darkness. Although it is not an immediate function that controls and determines the direction of the autonomous vehicle, it is the data that Aeva evaluates that helps machine learning and decision-making of the core component of the system.

This is how the processing of the Aeva product looks so far, in which an ambitious group of engineers participates: 

The startup currently employs 50 people and has managed to raise an incredible $45 million through crowd-funding. Each of the boxes will cost around 200-300 dollars, while up to five of these intelligent helpers can be installed on one vehicle. The system works on the basis of predicting the movement of surrounding objects, thanks to which it can successfully calculate potential threats to the driver and the vehicle itself. The co-founders of the project were Soroush Salehian and Mina Rezk, who previously worked on the company's "special projects" Apple. Of course, they couldn't say anything about this topic, but it's obvious that they were definitely inspired somewhere. In addition to potential work on Project Titan Car Project also participated in the development of the first generation Apple Watch and iPhones. Official information that would approximate the work Apphowever, they are not available on the project of autonomous vehicles. A number of predictions say that the apple company should get away with this project sometime between 2023 and 2025. It looks like we will just have to wait for such a scenario.
