Zurich Airport tests self-driving shuttle bus as it lays groundwork for autonomous technologies
Zurich Airport – a Corporate Partner of the FTE Digital, Innovation & Startup Hub – is testing self-driving vehicles on the apron, laying the groundwork for the future use of autonomous technologies. Zurich Airport – a Corporate Partner of the FTE Digital, Innovation & Startup Hub – is testing self-driving vehicles on the apron, laying the groundwork for the future use of autonomous technologies. In preparation for the test phase, a ‘Robotaxi’ has been put into operation to acquire the necessary base of evidence. The airport is investing in a pilot project involving a self-driving shuttle bus. The aim is to gain experience with the use of autonomous vehicles in the airport environment, laying the foundation for this innovative technology so that future standards can be established for all airport partners. All activities within this project will always take into consideration the strict safety requirements of airport operations. The self-driving shuttle bus can transport up to...
