Apple Self Driving Car

It has been acknowledged by Project Titan’s organizers, that Apple’s self-driving car cannot now be prepared without a steering wheel or pedals right now due to technical limitations.

A self-driving car with a steering wheel and pedals was successfully designed by Apple but the car can only drive autonomously on national highways. Thus, Apple’s project to develop self-driving cars will take some time.

Doug Field, a crucial member of the team and former Apple VP of specialty products who also held positions at Tesla and Segway, just left Project Titan. Last year Ford declared that Doug Field will take on the role of its Embedded Systems Officer.
