Woven by Toyota is building mobility for a safer, happier and more sustainable world. A subsidiary of Toyota, Woven by Toyota develops and invests in new technologies, software, and business models that transform how we live, work and move. With a focus on software-defined vehicles, automated driving, data-driven intelligence, security, mobility services, embedded platforms, AI, and more, we build on Toyota's legacy of trust and safety to deliver mobility solutions for all.

For nearly a century, Toyota has been delivering products and services that improve lives. Its earliest offerings, which automated the simple manual task of weaving, have evolved into the safe, reliable, connected automobiles we enjoy and depend on today. Woven by Toyota is an integral part of Toyota’s vision for the next 100 years—a world where mobility is easier, safer and more enjoyable for more people.

Our unique global culture weaves modern Silicon Valley innovation and time-tested Japanese quality craftsmanship and operational excellence. These complementary strengths enable us to develop and deliver cutting-edge technology at scale—optimizing for safety, advancing clean energy and elevating well-being.  We envision a human-centered future where world-class technology solutions expand global access to mobility, amplify the capabilities of drivers, and empower humanity to thrive.

Woven by Toyota Robotics Group was newly established in 2020. Our focus is to create core competencies in the next-generation robotics business. Actually the Toyota Woven City project which was announced in 2020 is one of the big test cases where our developed robotics capabilities and applications will contribute for a better life. To make it happen, we seek talents to take on challenges together. We have two mission statements:

1. To extend capabilities of robots through R&D based on the long-term perspective

2. To develop services through PoC (proof of concept) using developed core robotics technologies

Our core members have been involved in developing humanoid robots or mobile manipulation robot “HSR” at Toyota Motor Corporation for several years. We have many mid-career members and people who have work experiences overseas. We aim to cultivate a new culture and be open-minded. We also work closely with Toyota Research Institute in the USA to share and accelerate each other’s technologies.
