A Bloomberg report has
was recently published and reportsnew hires
carried out by the Apple firm for its Titan project, which could
besides take anew twistaccording to some
sources. Indeed, with the recruitment of Dan Dodge, notably known for having
created QNX a few years ago, an operating system used nowadays
in certain vehicles, Apple mayprioritize
his Car project on the software side:

The development of an electric car would still be in the plans.
However, Project Titan would now also include the ideaof a
autonomous driving system made by Apple, than other manufacturers
of cars could use.

Dan Dodge, Apple's new employee, is not an amateur in
software for vehicles, having developedQNX,
system purchased by BlackBerry in 2010 and still used today.

The Bloomberg report adds that in addition to the recent arrival of Dodge and
Mansfield,
the Cupertino company managed to bring in Todd Gray last May, former
engineer at Ford.

And then after the setbacks at the start of the year encountered by Apple for the
Titan project, the firm would have taken the opportunity to reshuffle the staff.

According to Bloomberg, therefore, John Wright, at Apple since 2004, is now
head of the software team. Benjamin Lyon, employee of the Cupertino company
since 2006, now heads the sensor part, while DJ Novotney, in
place at Apple since 2005, currently supervises the engineering team
