Campus Free City

Development of a networked fleet of modular robotic vehicles for urban mobility, transport, and service tasks

Details 
Period:November 2021 - May 2024
Objectives:The key features from the applicant's perspective are as follows:
- Complete replacement of current motor vehicle ownership in the city center (manual operation, distributed ownership) by an automated, networked, modular vehicle fleet of a central operator (Mobility as a Service) - while retaining bicycle traffic and rail-based mass transport systems
- Mapping of all vehicle-based services through a coordinated vehicle fleet: freight transportation, passenger transportation, municipal work
- Complete mapping of business transactions from service request to provision through to automated and secure billing by the networked control system
- Enabling data-driven optimization as a decisive success factor for profitability and acceptance
- Innovative human-machine interface "Avatar" of the CityBot train modules for communication with cyclists and pedestrians
- Comprehensive value proposition for the urban population: improved quality of life as a result of a reduction in traffic-induced emissions and land consumption as well as inner-city traffic density to around 20% of today's vehicle numbers
