Samsung has received approval to test self-driving vehicles in South Korea and will begin
with a “Hyundai equipped
with the latest cameras and sensors,” according to The Korean Herald.
Little is known about Samsung’s intentions at this time.
The move comes a few weeks after
Apple received similar
approval to test self-driving vehicles in California.
Two years ago, the firm established a team to work on self-driving tech, but did not say if it
planned to enter the
market or simply partner with others.
To test self-driving cars in the country, the company had to receive approval from the
Ministry of Land,
Infrastructure, and Transport.
Hyundai, Uber, and Toyota have all went through the same
approval process
before.Samsung has declined to comment on the approval.
It has also not said if it plans to
expand the tests to
Silicon Valley or Europe.
