Autonomous electric ferry can be called like an elevator
The world’s first electric, autonomous ferry is being tested in Norway in the hope it will end the need for expensive bridges over rivers and canals.
Connected highways increase driving safety and efficiency
Modular, connected pavement slabs link emergency services, self-driving vehicles and traffic data for efficient, smart transport.
IoT based system allows drivers to find a parking space
Using IoT technology, a connected parking platform alerts drivers to available parking spaces in their area helping to decrease future emission levels in cities.
New Zealand company trials autonomous drone taxi
An autonomous drone passenger plane is currently seeking approval to carry passengers in New Zealand.
New electrified road charges vehicles and reduces carbon emissions
A sustainable electrified road offers a new solution for transport, charging vehicles as they are driven
With urban congestion and pollution on the rise, a fundamental shift is driving technological solutions centred around renewable energy. The automotive industry is also shifting away from the car-as-a-product to the car-as-a-service facilitating a move towards autonomous vehicles and shared mobility. In this landscape the convergence of new technologies will see the rise of new forms of transport and infrastructure, with connectivity playing a big role in making such services more convenient and accessible to customers. Prepare for autonomous ferries that can be called like an elevator, electrified roads, autonomous passenger drones and more.
