【】to have Google to take the reins
我要评论While Uber and Tesla grab headlines in self-driving car tech, Korean engineers are building an autonomous vehicle that is planned for roadworthiness by the middle of this year. 。
A team at the Seoul National University have been building their self-driving car -- cleverly named SNUber -- for the past couple of years. While it's been available for use on campus via an app, the team is ready to test the outside terrain, thanks to Korea recently opening downtown roads to self-driving cars. 。
