First thing shown at Apple Developer's Conference was Anki's new AnkiDrive app and cars.

Three self-driving cars steered themselves around a track. The cars sense their surroundings and adjust their speeds based on the same processes our brains perform while driving.

“We are bringing video games to life on the floor of your livingroom,” CEO Boris Sofman said during his presentation.

$50 million funding from 3 VCs led by Andreessen, Horowitz.
