March 22, 2016 (Powerhomebiz.net) The final part of unmanned vehicles testing, the use of which is expected in 2016, started in Singapore.
For now, such vehicles run in tourist areas and in the territory of one of the research centers. However, in the next month a rather large number can be seen on the island Sensosa, where they will soon become one of the main type of transport. At first, those cars will run from one point to another, as the shuttles. Initially along the coast, where there is no current transport.
In the long term operation of unmanned vehicles will be carried out primarily as urban transport and transportation.
The general concept of the development of unmanned vehicles involves the introduction of such tools in the urban public transport fleet, as well as freight traffic.
Note that Singapore can thus become the first country in the world to legalize autonomous vehicles. The Google, that has been experiencing its “googlemobiles” for several year, does not expect that the US authorities will allow them to freely ride on public roads until 2017. Other companies are focused on 2020 – particularly in Tokyo, this year it is planned to launch the unmanned taxi service for guests of the Olympiad.
The main purpose of autonomous technology is to improve safety and reduce the number of traffic jams. These machines will also allow you to focus on work or correspondence that you want to do on the way. Although certain rules initially will prohibit sleep while driving, someone certainly will try.
The history of autonomous models began at the beginning of the last century. At that time attempts were unsuccessful. But in 1939, scientists have been trying to get the car to drive yourself. In the 80s of the 20th century, was began a serious study of autonomous technology.
Then in this theme was attracted multi-million dollar investment. And most of all it has succeeded in Germany. German engineers have installed on Mercedes sensors that read the obstacles on the road. However, the machine tests didn`t move further than driving through the deserted landscape. Therefore, they decided to postpone the project for the future. By the end of the last century, the development of autonomous vehicles has become a priority for several companies.
Among them were the Volkswagen, Audi, BMW and Cadillac. However, succeeded the same corporation, Mercedes. Model, was released on the highway between Copenhagen and Munich and independently traveled 158 kilometers. Until 2012, about autonomous cars could be heard almost nothing. And then, quite suddenly, Google has received permission for unmanned vehicles in city mode.
Singapore has once again proved that it is one of the most developed cities in the world. Moreover, that means openness to startups and great opportunities for business as whole.
