I-Apple inenqwaba yonjiniyela be-software eCanada abasebenza ekwakheni uhlelo lokusebenza lwezimoto.Isinyathelo esingajwayelekile senkampani evame ukuphatha amaphrojekthi ocwaningo nentuthuko eduze nendlunkulu yayo iCupertino, eCalifornia, ngokusho kwabantu abajwayelene nalolu daba.
Onjiniyela abaningi abasebenza eCanada baqashwa ngonyaka odlule futhi cishe abangamashumi amabili bavela kwaBlackBerry QNX Ltd., umhlinzeki oholayo wesoftware yezimoto. Bacele ukuthi bangadalulwa ukuze kuxoxwe ngemininingwane yephrojekthi eyimfihlo.
Onjiniyela manje basebenza ehhovisi le-Apple endaweni yase-Ottawa eKanata, cishe uhambo lwemizuzu emihlanu ukusuka eQNX. Abakwa-Apple babheke abasebenzi be-QNX ngenxa yobungoti babo ekwenzeni izinto ezibucayi zezinhlelo zokusebenza nokuphathwa kwamandla, kusho owayengumphathi we-QNX.
Ukuqashwa okuphawuleka kakhulu kweQNX kwakungu-CEO wayo, uDan Dodge. Kusukela ajoyina uhlelo lwe-Apple Project Titan ekuqaleni konyaka, uthathe indima enkulu ukwengamela uhlelo lokusebenza lwemoto, ehlukanisa isikhathi sakhe phakathi kweCanada neCalifornia, kusho abantu. Okunye ukuqashwa okuphawulekayo nguDerrick Keefe, owashiya i-QNX ngonyaka odlule ngemuva kweminyaka engaphezu kweyishumi njengonjiniyela omkhulu.
Uhlelo olusebenza ezimotweni luyisisekelo sesoftware yesikhulumi semoto esizayo se-Apple, ngendlela efanayo ne-iOS ku-iPhone. Ithimba le-Apple liyathuthuka isoftware ezimele engaqondisa izimoto ezizishayelayo zesikhathi esizayo futhi izosebenza ohlelweni lokusebenza.
Isoftware ezimele ibimane ingesinye sezici eziningi okuhlelelwe ukuthi zisebenze kusistimu yokusebenza kwezimoto. Isibonelo, onjiniyela be-Apple nombono we isikrini samakhanda esibonisa izinhlelo zokusebenza ezinjengamamephu angasetshenziswa umsizi wedijithali osuselwa ezwini (Siri).
Isiphetho salezi zici sincike ekuqondisweni kwamasu jikelele weProject Titan. UBob Mansfield, owathatha lo msebenzi ngo-Ephreli, unikeze onjiniyela umnqamulajuqu wokuhlola ubuchwepheshe bokuzishayela ngaphambi kokunquma ngezinyathelo ezilandelayo.
Amanye amaqembu avela kuphrojekthi yeTitan afaka iqembu lesikhulumi sokulingisa esizishayelayo. I-Apple ithuthukise ama-simulators engokoqobo abawasebenzisela ukuhlola isoftware yokuzishayela ngaphandle kokuba nohlelo emigwaqeni yomphakathi.
