Toyota Motor Corporation and NTT have partnered to innovate in autonomous driving technologies to cut down on traffic accidents.

The collaboration will focus on developing advanced AI software that can detect risks and control the vehicle automatically to prevent accidents.

The new system will integrate AI and NTT's revolutionary IOWN communication infrastructure.

In practical terms, it will analyze real-time data from vehicle cameras, activating vehicle control mechanisms like steering and braking during potential collision scenarios.

Both companies plan to invest billions of yen in the project, aiming to introduce this autonomous driving technology by 2028.

Such advancements could dramatically enhance road safety and efficiency in traffic management. Source: ANN. #
