Autonomous Trucks
Robotic Research, LLC, a leading developer of Automated Driving Systems (ADS), and FPInnovations, a Canadian private non-profit research and development center, are collaborating to develop an off-road truck platooning system for the forest industry. This project will combine Robotic Research’s self-driving technology with FPInnovations’ knowledge in forestry and transportation to adapt the truck platooning technology to off-highway environments. Aerial view of how an off-road truck platooning system would operate for the forest industry. Robotic Research has, among its other projects, extensive experience with the US Army’s Leader-Follower program, aimed at the automation of supply trucks. Robotic Research has compiled one of the largest records of autonomous vehicle miles logged.
