Rumours about the development of an autonomous and connected vehicle at Apple have been rife for months, although the brand has neither confirmed or denied the news. The test cars being used by Apple are all equipped with a multitude of cameras and sensors. The system also analyses the road, as well as the surrounding environment, to evaluate all risk factors. Moreover, Apple is working on developing 3D maps, a project called SLAM (Simultaneous Localisation And Mapping), although no more details are known for the time being. In order to achieve its goals, Apple is apparently busy hiring engineers.
