Join the RTSA NSW/ACT Chapter online for a webinar on  autonomous trams and last mile freight at 12:00-1:00pm on the 8th October. 

Overview

Advances in autonomous transportation products, research and projects have enabled more operators to bring energy—and cost-efficient solutions to their networks. Jacobs has partnered with European autonomous transport leader OTIV to help ANZ operators realise those benefits. Whether it is optimised traction power usage, advanced collision avoidance systems, reduced operating costs, fully autonomous trams, or last-mile freight, we can help.

Learning outcomes

In this presentation, you will learn:

• key challenges for urban and freight rail operators, including the software and hardware elements of an autonomous rail vehicle system
• the necessary steps towards a fully autonomous rail system and benefits realisation
• real-world projects, research and trials taking place in Europe.
