Apple rumored to be shopping for LiDARs – serious about autonomy | Ars Technica
Apple has talked to at least four different companies about purchasing lidar sensors, Reuters reports. Apple is also reportedly working on a home-built lidar sensor. The news suggests that Apple is still taking its self-driving car effort, known internally as Project Titan, seriously.
The company is specifically shopping for sensors with a range in the hundreds of meters. That suggests that Apple is developing technology for fully self-driving cars traveling at highway speeds.
