TECHNOLOGY
working with new personal mobility types and make it possible to connect places that were not previously serviced by public transport . However , the objective is not to replace buses on existing routes with autonomous vehicles , but rather to diversify the transport modes in order to cover as many passenger mobility needs as possible . The hope is to find new mobility solutions for public transport , at the interface with private transport options .
How has the service been received by passengers ? So far we ’ ve only received positive feedback on this project and people are thrilled to try out the shuttles . Passengers are very curious about the technologies and how the whole system operates .
The questions revolve around the same topics : Does it really work without any human operator ? How does it detect obstacles ? Passengers are impressed like they would of a magic trick , but they know it is not magic but advanced technology .
