The Japanese company Nissan and agency NASA объявили to start work on a common project . The aim of the project - creation of a system of autonomous driving.

The project is designed for five years, and the result should be the emergence of commercial versions of robotic vehicles. According to representatives of Nissan, the creation of such systems will increase the reliability of cars themselves, reduce accidents and reduce the number of vehicle emission (as a result of intelligent control systems auto modes).

This NASA experts will work on this project together with experts from Nissan. Work on the project will be carried out in Silicon Valley.
