Transdev and Delphi Announce Commercial Partnership for Autonomous Transportation
June 08 2017 - 12:00PM
Transdev, a leading global provider of mobility services, and
Delphi Automotive PLC (NYSE:DLPH), a global leader in developing
automated driving solutions, today announced a commercial
partnership to develop a global, fully automated,
mobility-on-demand (AMoD) transport system.
The system will utilize Transdev Universal Routing Engine (URE)
and Delphi’s previously announced automated driving platform – the
Centralized Sensing, Planning and Localization (CSLP) platform
which Delphi is developing in partnership with Mobileye. Transdev
and Delphi will start collaborating on pilot programs in
Paris-Saclay and Rouen (Normandy) France, as the first EU
driverless, on-demand mobility service on an open road.
Yann Leriche, chief performance officer and lead of the B2C
business line at Transdev group said, “With Delphi’s expertise in
driverless technology, we will accelerate our capabilities to
develop a global autonomous transportation system, from client
interface to vehicle intelligence. Our ambition is to offer the
best 'PACE' mobility solutions to our clients: Personalized,
Autonomous, Connected and Electric. Combining the strengths of our
two companies, leaders in their field, will enable us to introduce
innovative driverless services in our current and future
operations, confirming the position of Transdev as a pioneer in
integrating autonomous transport systems into global mobility
networks.”
“This latest announcement will help accelerate the development
of commercially viable automated vehicle solutions,” said Glen De
Vos, Delphi senior vice president and chief technology officer.
“With Transdev’s deep understanding of mobility operations, this
collaboration will further strengthen our AMoD and data management
capabilities, while expanding our automated driving platform to
include a variety of different vehicle types. As a result, we’re
confident this collaboration brings us closer to providing all of
our customers and partners with an affordable, reliable and
scalable automated driving and mobility-on-demand
platform.”
Transdev and Delphi PartnershipDelphi and
Transdev will share knowledge of AMoD systems to develop fully
autonomous vehicles, a driverless vehicle infrastructure solution
(DVIS) and cloud infrastructure to support a commercial AMoD system
that can operate globally.
To accomplish this, Delphi will integrate its turnkey CSLP
platform into Transdev’s mobility service vehicles, including a
centralized computer running Delphi’s Ottomatika vehicle control
software, a comprehensive sensor suite, and all the required
connectivity and data devices based on Control-Tec real-time
analytics, Movimento’s secure, over-the-air (OTA) technologies and
Mobileye’s REM technology. Transdev will integrate its Universal
Routing Engine (URE) and remote control-command software, including
intelligent infrastructure and additional software modules
dedicated to public transportation and leverage its deep knowledge
in client use-cases, safety and quality of service specifications
for shared mobility services.
Rouen and Paris-Saclay pilots
Transdev has initiated an Autonomous on-demand Mobility service
program in Normandy this year. The collaboration with Delphi will
allow the two groups to jointly test the entire system: dispatch,
remote control-command and vehicles, and test the sensor
architecture and intelligence for driverless last-mile and
door-to-door transportation service with the next phase including a
commercial service. In Paris-Saclay, Transdev and Delphi and will
collaborate on the development of a first mile, last-mile ondemand
solution between a conventional railway station and the
Paris-Saclay plateau and campus.
