Induct Launches Navia Electric Self-Driving Shuttle In The US

Induct-NaviaInduct announced the launch of the world’s first intelligent, electric and driverless shuttle, Navia, in the U.S. with a live demonstration of the vehicle at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

Already deployed with partnerships in Switzerland, the UK and Singapore, the Navia self-driving shuttle navigates streets congested with pedestrians easily and safely without the use of a rail or designated path. By utilizing advanced robotics, laser mapping technology and sensors that detect the vehicle’s acceleration and rotation, Navia instantly calculates its position, nearby obstacles, route and distance traveled in real time, enabling it to carry its passengers quickly, safely and efficiently.

When users get on board they find a touchscreen offering the various stops. They select their destination on the screen, and the shuttle automatically sets off for it. Navia can be set on a specific schedule and route, or can travel where needed, when needed, letting users summon the shuttle with their smartphones. Navia is also the only driverless shuttle that needs no special infrastructure such as rails, or a designated path so it can work on any kind of site.

Navia is the ideal solution for heavily-populated areas that need a simple, safe and environmentally-friendly public mobility solution: pedestrianized city centers, large industrial sites, airports, theme parks, shopping complexes, universities and city streets.

With zero emissions, the Navia shuttle travels at speeds of 12.5 mph and can carry up to eight passengers.  Fully electric, the vehicle is recharged by induction – using magnetic fields – without the need for cables or human intervention, allowing it to be self-sufficient and run 24 hours a day.
