Similar trials and services have recently been launched in the Swedish city of Gothenburg, Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines (Paris region) in France and Montreal in Canada.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Autonomous minibus with 5G connection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On 28 October 2021, Keolis and its partners Ericsson, Telia, Urban ICT Arena, Intel and T-engineering tested a 5G-connected, remotely monitored autonomous electric minibus at Kista Science Centre in Stockholm. The <strong>bus is supported by an internal artificial intelligence (AI) system<\/strong> that detects passengers\u2019 well-being and behaviour.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This demonstration explores how real-time data from inside the autonomous vehicle can be transmitted to the centralised supervision (traffic) tower and how, in return, the vehicle responds to its commands with the support of an AI system and extremely high 5G network data speeds. The data, collected by cameras, includes counting passengers and tracking items left behind on the bus. These lost items are signalled to passengers using outboard microphones. The system also detects \u2018abnormal\u2019 passenger behaviour and informs the supervision tower if someone is not feeling well. The operator in the supervision tower can then take immediate action by calling a doctor or an ambulance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The incorporation of artificial intelligence is an important <strong>step in preparing for full autonomy and in removing the driver safely from the bus. Keolis and its Swedish partners plan to start running trials without a safety driver on board at the end of 2022\/early 2023<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Telia, Ericsson and partners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>5G connectivity is provided by <strong>Telia<\/strong> in collaboration with <strong>Ericsson<\/strong>. Intel is delivering processing power to both the IT system in the vehicles and the supervision tower, as well as the mobile network.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Supervision-1920x1080.jpg\" alt=\"keolis 5g autonomous bus\" class=\"wp-image-16378\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Supervision-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Supervision-1280x720.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Supervision-960x540.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The vehicle, equipped with self-driving technology, is provided by the Swedish technology firm T-engineering.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bernard Tabary, CEO International at Keolis: &#8220;<strong>Enhancing everyday lives by making shared mobility smarter and more sustainable is essential for the future of public transport<\/strong>.
