Toyota picks Renesas SoC to power its first self-driving cars
"Toyota has selected the embedded systems maker Renesas to supply the ARM-powered systems-on-a-chip to power autonomous vehicles scheduled for commercial launch in the year 2020."
https://global.toyota/en/detail/10171645
Toyota Will Establish New Artificial IntelligenceResearch and Development Company
"Directed by Dr. Gill Pratt, Toyota's Executive Technical Advisor and the Chief Executive Officer of the new enterprise, TRI will hire leading researchers and engineers to support its wide range of activities."
Reference Dr. Gill Pratt's career Born in the U.S.A. in 1961. Obtained a Doctorate degree from the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science department at MIT, and taught at MIT and Olin College as Associate Professor and Professor, respectively. Established three startups between 1983 and 2005, and helped found Olin College. As a DARPA Program Manager, led projects in Neuromorphic Systems and Robotics, including the DARPA Robotics Challenge, from 2010 to 2015. Significantly influenced robotics research by leading the DARPA Robotics Challenge, where humans and robots collaborated for disaster response.

Toyota Joins the Race for Self-Driving Cars with an Invisible Copilot
"Pratt also suggested that Toyota will take a different computational approach. During his speech, he noted that existing self-driving cars use computers that consume thousands of watts. To achieve greater power efficiency, Pratt said Toyota could use neuromorphic chips, an architecture that computes data in parallel rather than sequentially, as conventional computers do."
