As Toyota Research Institute’s CTO looks around corners, Dr. Kuffner and his $1B+ organization are busy building intelligent machines of the future. What does the world’s largest automaker see in the road ahead? How fast and how far are we now traveling? What’s the urban mobility future? As ride-sharing evolves, and emerging tech creates new space for innovation, can we speed up the transition to a more sustainable city? Considering the massive allocations of scarce urban land to parking, when and where can cities make their move into the new world of safer and cleaner mobility?
• Dr. James Kuffner, Chief Technology Officer, Toyota Research Institute
