In 2020, New Flyer announced North America’s first deployment of automated transit buses into revenue service, in a pilot project with the Connecticut Department of Transportation.
The agreement expands the partnership originally announced in 2019 and builds on the unveiling of North America’s first automated transit bus, the Xcelsior AV™.
ABRT offers a solution that is ideal for today and into the future since it takes advantage of existing streets and infrastructure while increasing efficiency and safety at a minimal cost.
New Flyer of America Inc. unveiled its Xcelsior AV™ automated transit bus, now in motion at Robotic Research LLC (Robotic Research) in Maryland.
The Xcelsior AV™ unveiling follows New Flyer’s launch of its Automated Technology Program first announced in May 2019, and the subsequent announcement of partnership with artificial intelligence and automation leader Robotic Research also announced in May 2019.
The Olli 2.0 was delivered to Jacksonville in late August through a partnership with Beep, a Florida-based autonomous MaaS provider, digital vehicle manufacturer Local Motors by LM Industries, and Robotic Research LLC.
