Japanese automaker Nissan and NASA are teaming up to advance the technology behind cars that drive themselves.
Yokohama-based Nissan Motor Co. and NASA's Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, California, announced Thursday a five-year research-and-development partnership for autonomous vehicle systems so they can eventually be applied to commercially sold cars.
Nissan is excited about the potential of self-driving cars, which executives say could lead to improved safety, a pillar for future autos along with low emission technology.
NASA researchers will be working with Nissan's research unit in Silicon Valley, they said in a joint statement.
