The\u00a0tests allowed to\u00a0optimise the\u00a0driver assistance system used in\u00a0the Solaris bus, the manufacturer points out.<\/p>\n<p>For\u00a0research purposes, the\u00a0Solaris R&amp;D Department designed and\u00a0installed a\u00a0mobile pantograph charging mast set\u00a0up on\u00a0the square in\u00a0front of\u00a0the stadium. The\u00a0firm also supplied a\u00a0bus featuring the\u00a0system designed and\u00a0supplied by\u00a0the Pozna\u0144 University of\u00a0Technology. Thanks to\u00a0the advanced device, the\u00a0bus is\u00a0capable of\u00a0recognising a\u00a0charging mast, and\u00a0consequently, it\u00a0will be\u00a0able to\u00a0precisely show the\u00a0driver where to\u00a0dock the\u00a0pantograph under the\u00a0charging station.<\/p>\n<h2>Solaris cooperates with Pozna\u0144 University of\u00a0Technology<\/h2>\n<p>Thanks to\u00a0the software which the\u00a0consortium is\u00a0developing <strong>the\u00a0vehicle will concurrently self-locate and\u00a0create a\u00a0map of\u00a0the surroundings<\/strong>, in\u00a0order to\u00a0identify other road users on\u00a0that map. What is\u00a0more, the\u00a0system is\u00a0based on\u00a0a neural network which enables the\u00a0system to\u00a0recognize specified objects in\u00a0various weather conditions. Data transmitted from the\u00a0ADAS sensors will be\u00a0analysed so\u00a0as to\u00a0best use\u00a0and fine-tune the\u00a0operation of\u00a0the software. The\u00a0tests will also allow to\u00a0check the\u00a0operation of\u00a0algorithms during the\u00a0docking of\u00a0vehicles under a\u00a0station and\u00a0to optimise their values.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Pozna\u0144 University of\u00a0Technology has\u00a0been our\u00a0long-standing partner for\u00a0the development of\u00a0drive technology and\u00a0of various types of\u00a0systems constituting the\u00a0equipment of\u00a0our buses.
