VIDEO | Tramvaie autonome: automatizarea testată la Oslo
Urban surface transport automation is progressing, but transitioning trams to autonomous operation is more complex than for metros due to traffic interactions and lack of common regulations. The R2DATO project highlights the need for tailored solutions for each tram operator, increasing costs and development time. Initial automation functions like remote control are being tested, primarily in depots, where conditions are more manageable. The gradual approach aims to assist drivers before full autonomy is considered, addressing challenges similar to those faced in developing autonomous cars.
