SINGAPORE: Nanyang Technological University and Volvo Buses on Tuesday launched a 12-metre autonomous electric bus in what they said was a world first.
It is equipped with numerous sensors and navigation controls that are managed by an artificial intelligence system., stereo-vision cameras that capture images in 3D and an advanced global navigation satellite system which uses multiple data sources to give location accuracy of up to 1cm. The bus, which has undergone preliminary rounds of testing at the Centre of Excellence for Testing and Research of Autonomous vehicles at NTU , will begin trials on within the university's campus before subsequently being extended to other roads.A second bus will undergo tests at a bus depot managed by SMRT in April, where it will also be tested on its ability to autonomously navigate into vehicle washing bays and park safely at charging areas.
This is historical!
Great move but sorry on 'world' S first' as I travelled on some buses already in work in shenzhen so not first.
You guys obviously didn’t watch “speed”
