Ford, Google Team Up to Make Smarter Cars | Wired.com
Ford is joining Google to develop cars smart enough to know where you’re going and how best to get you there so you aren’t wasting time in traffic.
The automaker is tapping the power of Google’s remarkable Prediction API to create cars that determine where we’re going by examining where we’ve been. It’s the latest example of the auto industry calling on Silicon Valley as software takes on more tasks in our cars. It also underscores the tech sector’s growing interest in the automotive sector as Microsoft, Cisco and IBM develop new technologies and markets.
