Iveco<\/a> and EasyMile \u2013 can carry up to 100 passengers comfortably and safely. Technologies integrated into the vehicle include safety controls and navigation software. EasyMile also contributes what is one of the most advanced fleet management solutions and one of the first totally designed for autonomous vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe bus’s built-in autonomous driving system (ADS) allows the bus to repeatedly dock at stations in less than 10 cm.This is important because it improves accessibility, especially for wheelchair users. Maximum speeds achieved by the bus in autonomous mode have shown that the technology performs well even at 40km\/h. Further testing indicated that the technology is also effective at autonomous speeds above 70km\/h. Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X) capabilities allow the bus to anticipate traffic light phases, which means smooth stops and restarts with less energy consumption. In addition, precise maneuvering and stopping also enable automatic parking in the depot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Comments from Iveco and EasyMile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Benoit Perrin<\/strong>, EasyMile\u2019s General Manager, said: \u00abWe are very proud of this new collaboration with Iveco Bus, a recognized leader and expert in public transportation, which comes after our successful joint STAR project started in 2017. It also shows the maturity of our technology. Autonomous technology brings a series of benefits to bus operations, from additional safety to optimized parking or to improved on board customer services. Together we look forward to offering this new innovative solution to public transport authorities\u00bb . These, instead, are the declarations of declared St\u00e9phane Espinasse<\/strong>, Iveco Bus Brand President: \u00abAs a manufacturer that has a long-standing commitment to the development of driver assistance systems, Iveco Bus is proud of the results of this level 4 autonomous bus project. The tests carried out validate, among other things, a speed of 40 km\/h. They are a further and necessary, but not final, stage of the project that we will continue to progress with our partners. The vehicle’s safety and management features now allow us to plan the next stage, namely, tests under operating conditions\u00bb .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Autonomous Standard City Bus from Iveco and EasyMile: yes, it can be done.
