TOKYO -- A group of Japanese computer science students, including a doctoral candidate in the field who was trained at Apple, has established a venture company along with scientists to develop information processing technology that will serve as the basis for autonomous driving.
Students and researchers at the University of Tokyo and Keio University have joined hands with Tier IV, a commercial developer of such technology, as well as specialists in the field. The aim is to develop a commercially viable, efficient system for artificial intelligence in about three years. By combining findings from various research institutions, the new company hopes to speed up the development process.
