Wireless Estop for Autonomous Vehicle Testing

 

COMPANY

Automotive manufacturer of conventional and autonomous (driverless) vehicles

CHALLENGE

Test engineers needed a way to halt the operation of a driverless vehicle when testing vehicle designs.

SOLUTION

A wireless emergency stop enabled test engineers to shadow the driverless vehicle and shut it down if something unexpected occurred during testing. The wireless Estop enabled engineers to stop the testing process from a pilot vehicle while they were in motion.
