Today, Adelaide`s driverless car is finally put into use!
Although the self-driving car I saw was not the same as that of the time Jun! Because-it really looks like mini, but the look of QQ is still very affectionate!
Moreover, it is said that the new technology used in this "driverless car" is the first in the world!
Needless to say, let`s take a look at more about the car.
Sage Automation, the South Australian company, helped Tuao achieve a new chapter in its transportation history with Matilda, the world`s first intelligent transportation hub.
It is reported that the car is developed and manufactured locally by Matilda and the United States Local Motors Olli self-driving electric shuttle developed by the product of the cooperation, the new car will be in Glenelg for a six-month milestone test.
One of the Matilda intelligent transportation hubs is located in Stamford Grand, on Glenelg Beach, and the other is near Broadway Kiosk, where the Olli bus is responsible for carrying passengers between the two stops along the seaside route.
01 High Technology-the first in the World
"this comprehensive technology experiment has never been done anywhere in the world before, and we look forward to providing an interactive, personalized experience through Matilda. "it includes real-time travel updates and route assistance, and testing this exciting technology can make it work between a driverless bus and a normal car," said Sage CEO Adrian Fahey.
"passengers can interact with our Matilda transport hub & # 39; # 39; Receive routes, use touch screen technology to book trips, receive congestion alerts, even ask questions about local tourist attractions, or ask questions like `where can I buy a glass of water`
"in order to develop intelligent, barrier-free future cities, we need equipment, vehicles and infrastructure to communicate with each other-and Matilda can communicate with any driverless bus fleet or one of them. To provide seamless and customized bus services for passengers. "
02 successful integration
The trial showed how the first and last mile transport solutions combined with existing public transport to fill every service gap and reduce traffic congestion caused by densely populated urban spaces, Sage said.
Not only that, the new technology shows how driverless cars share public space with pedestrians, cyclists, and entertainment around them.
Each Matilda can be repositioned within a few hours.
They can choose to use either solar or battery power at the same time, and are completely independent, meaning it can be easily tested in different "first" or "last mile" locations.
This unique flexibility enables intelligent transportation hubs to be deployed quickly and temporarily during special events.
Fahey said the trial would be monitored in real time by Sage Automation-- `s state-of-the-art national operations center as part of trial operation and maintenance support to ensure a high level of safety for automatic drivers and users. And providing data to strengthen future deployment is a well-deserved priority.
03 Visual importance of assistance
"in addition to cutting-edge technologies such as IBM Watson and KinTrans systems, each Matilda will provide audio and visual cues to help anyone with visual or hearing impairment, and we are also doing our best to get older people. Office workers and people with disabilities are more likely to want to be in a space. "
The Olli will walk slowly during the trial, carrying up to eight passengers at a time. People can take seats free of charge and book seats online via interactive screens or landings at www.gotosage. Com / matilda.
Needless to say, the time Jun decided to choose a lucky day these days to try this new technology! What about you?
