Uber acquires Mighty AI

Uber has acquired computer vision startup Mighty AI to help advance its technology for self-driving cars.
Mighty AI specializes in computer vision, a field within artificial intelligence that is used to better understand or "label" the surroundings of vehicles that will be deployed autonomously.

Uber, which has become the most important ride-hailing operator, has been moving into new technologies that could see deployment of autonomous vehicles and even flying cars in the coming years. The news comes amid reports that Apple had acquired self-driving tech start-up Drive.ai to advance its own ambitions in the sector.
