Driverless In Boise?
Local developer: Boise should consider autonomous vehicles for downtown circulator
Quote:
Carley would like the city to consider a fixed streetcar alternative.
"Have you heard of Navya?" asked Carley.
Based in Paris, France, Navya has quickly accelerated to become one of the most prolific developers of driverless public vehicles in the world. Navya has launched autonomous public shuttle systems in Europe, Australia, Southeast Asia and, earlier this year, as a pilot program in Las Vegas. The vehicles, which can transport about a dozen passengers, are pretty spiffy—they look like something between a streetcar and a bus with plenty of headroom. They're 100 percent electric and are surrounded by several sensors and cameras to detect motions and obstacles.
