Japanese manufacturer 6773 Aisin is using this week’s ITS World Congress to demonstrate a range of new products designed to provide future communities with greater and safer mobility.

Aisin's Future Personal Mobility Vehicle ‘ILY-A’ has been attracting plenty of interest with its many applications being demonstrated hourly on its stand at the exhibition.

‘ILY-A’ features voice and face recognition and is designed to assist with ‘last mile’ services. It’s designed to follow users to the shops, be loaded with shopping and, on instruction, find its way home.

Other applications include it being able to be used as a small ride-on vehicle, or even as a child’s powered scooter.

The stand also features a virtual demonstration of Aisin’s 'Automatic Emergency Pull Over System’, which uses a dash mounted camera and sensor system to detect if the position of the driver’s face changes noticeably or eyes close.

The system will assume the driver is incapacitated, take control of the car and move it safely to the shoulder of the road.

Andy Teich, Flir’s president of commercial systems, doesn’t want to talk about infrared (IR). Instead, he’d prefer, he says, to discuss ‘thermal technology’. It is, he explains, to differentiate between the imaging technologies which his company specialises in and the LED illumination of IR cameras, an altogether different beast. Fl

    Paul Godsmark gives his views on what the advent of autonomous vehicles would mean for the wider society. Further to your article ‘Driver not required…’ in the Jan/Feb edition of ITS International which gave some great background to autonomous road vehicle (ARVs), I feel that the bigger picture is needed to aid understanding. There is a ‘technology freight train’ heading our way that is going to transform our roadways but we don’t seem to be aware of it and, therefore, are in no hurry to react.

    February 21, 2018
    There is a lot of excited chatter about autonomous vehicles – but 2getthere’s Robbert Lohmann suggests we might need to take a step back and look realistically at what is achievable. You might be surprised that the chief commercial officer of a company delivering autonomous vehicles would begin an article with the suggestion that we need to get past the hype. And yet I do; because we have to, and urgently so. The hype prevents the development of autonomous vehicles that address actual transit needs. And
