RTA commissions study of using smart driver-less vehicles
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced the commissioning
of a study of using smart driver-less vehicles in Dubai as part of its
endeavours to utilise the latest technologies in the field of smart mobility
solutions to be considered for use in Expo 2020.
Mattar Al Tayer, Chairman of the Board and Executive Director of the Roads
and Transport Authority (RTA) said that this initiative is adopted in the
implementation of the directives of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al
Nahyan, President of the UAE, and his brother His Highness Sheikh Mohammed
bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and
Ruler of Dubai, to endorse 2015 as a year of innovation in the UAE.
In addition, to the launch of a comprehensive national strategy with the aim
of ranking the UAE in the first position worldwide in the field of
innovation.
“The step also falls within the execution of the Dubai innovation strategy
endorsed by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai Crown
Prince and Chairman of the Executive Council, to make Dubai the world’s
first innovative city.”
The RTA has set up a team for studying the use of smart vehicles to map out
a strategy and a work plan for addressing the latest developments in this
field, and identifying the standards and specifications required in these
vehicles along with the needed infrastructure and safety legislations.
“In this context, the RTA has approached a host of international
manufactures of smart vehicles to examine technological alternatives on
offer, and plan for real-life experiments for using such vehicles in Dubai
under the supervision of the RTA,” Al Tayer said.
A delegation from the RTA has visited a number of European countries to
examine the latest models undertaken by smart cities across the globe in the
field of smart mobility.
It also visited some businesses and manufactures of smart vehicles to check
the best international practices of this line of industry, and review the
latest studies and researches published by key specialist international
research centers in this regard.
“RTA’s delegation visited World Expo Congress in Barcelona 2013 & 2014 which
included a number of aspects relating to the use of smart driver-less
vehicles to serve smart cities and other European cities,” explained RTA
Chairman of the Board and Executive Director.
Smart cars
The smart driver-less vehicles are the latest developments of the global
smart mobility systems, and this technology is based on electric vehicles
fitted with smart sensors to enhance the safety element and avoid crashes.
The smart vehicle has multi-operational techniques as it can operate within
moving vehicles environment without necessarily requiring connectivity with
the control center. Examples of this include ceasing motion in the event of
traffic disruption, and perceiving the road condition as well as traffic
signals, and pedestrian movement among others.
The vehicle can also be operated via an automated internet-based control
system where it can be fully controlled by a control center without
requiring a driver. In this regard smart vehicles can be programmed to lift
passengers by moving in pre-designated lanes to feed public transport
stations and link with vital centers with the aim of alleviating the need of
private vehicles, mitigating road congestions, easing the huge demand of
parking spaces, and eliminating environmental pollution and waste of
resources.
