TOKYO: Japanese automaker Toyota is revving up acquisitions in mobility technology, adding Renovo Motors Inc, a Silicon Valley software developer, to its Woven Planet team, which is working on automated driving.
The addition, announced Tuesday, follows the purchase earlier this year of Carmera Inc, a US venture that specialises in sophisticated road mapping updates made cheaper and faster by using crowdsourced information obtained from millions of net-connected Toyota vehicles.
