Sightings of Apple’s mysterious sensor-filled van
There’s an unmarked van loaded with cameras and sensors that’s been driving around Brooklyn. Another one just like it was just spotted in the San Francisco suburb of Concord.
As it turns out, California’s Department of Motor Vehicles has the one in Concord as registered and leased to Apple, according to the CBS affiliate there.
There was someone behind the wheel in both cases. But the sensors all over the van indicate that it was doing more than just Google-style street mapping, according to engineers familiar with self-driving cars.
