The Nizhny Novgorod State Technical University named after Alekseev, together with the Gorky Automobile Plant (GAZ), has developed the NEOS unmanned transport platform. The electric car operates both in autonomous mode and under the control of a dispatcher.
NEOS is designed for transporting goods in industrial enterprises, airports, and warehouses. It can analyze the situation and bypass obstacles.
Characteristics of the unmanned transport platform:
- Load capacity - from 800 to 1000 kg.
- Power reserve on one charge - up to 120 km.
- Turning radius - 3.5 m due to the rotation of both axles.
- Lifting at full load - 12°.
The model is capable of moving in both directions. In the event of an emergency, information is sent to the dispatcher in real time. He can adjust the route of the electric car remotely.
NEOS tests are scheduled for 2024. The drone will transport car bodies between GAZ workshops.
Earlier,www1.ru reported that they want tomake the Atom electric car unmanned by 2027.
