Autonomous mobility startup, Wayve, which uses learning-based approaches instead of hand-coded rules, has raised $20M to launch a pilot fleet of autonomous vehicles in central London.
The round was led by Eclipse Ventures, with participation from Balderton, existing investors and several undisclosed preeminent leaders in machine learning and robotics.
Wayve believes that the complexity of self-driving cars will be solved by better artificial intelligence “brains,” not by more physical sensors and hand-coded rules.
