"In the future, these shuttles will also run around the city and pick up passengers in areas that are not currently served by buses. They can take them to a bus or tramway station. Passengers will be able to continue their journey even further."
100%
electric and autonomous shuttles
The SAM-e service (for Smart Autonomous Mobility-electric) allows all employees and visitors of Solvay (Brussels) to book a free ride on board one of the autonomous on-demand shuttles of the STIB-MIVB. The shuttles are 100% electric and move with the help of several sensors and navigation systems, which scan the environment and detect any obstacles.
The service was tested for 4 months in cooperation with Solvay and the STIB-MIVB. After this first step into the future of shared mobility on demand, Padam Mobility wishes to transform the trial and propose solutions of 100% compatible DRT with autonomous shuttles.
