The autonomous driving EV vehicles we provide contribute to solving social issues by supporting people with mobility challenges and easing traffic congestion. In tourist destinations, parks, theme parks, factories, and other areas, they improve mobility and profitability, contributing to increased user loyalty and cost savings. Furthermore, by connecting to public transportation networks, they create new value in transportation. They are being used in demonstration experiments and regular operations in various regions across Japan, providing transportation that combines safety, reliability, and comfort.

EVO

The EVO is equipped with Level 4* autonomous driving technology that does not require a driver. It is a new type of autonomous driving EV bus that combines the latest intelligent technology and high performance. This vehicle, without a steering wheel or pedals, provides a mobility experience as a new era of mobility solution.

- EVO3 system configuration

1

LiDAR

Infrared sensing technology is used to estimate position and detect obstacles.

2

Odometry

Vehicle speed is detected from the rotational speed of the tires, and this assists in position estimation and vehicle control.

3

GNSS

Position estimation using GNSS enables the vehicle to travel in areas with few structures.

4

camera

It performs signal recognition and remote monitoring to ensure safety both inside and outside the vehicle.

5

sensing sensor

It detects raindrops and automatically activates the wipers.

6

V2X

It acquires traffic light information and helps you pass through intersections safely.

7

Remote monitoring and control

The area around and inside the vehicle are monitored from a remote center to ensure safe operation and control.

Hitachiota City, Ibaraki Prefecture (regular operation)
The bus operates regularly in urban areas, supporting the mobility of local residents and contributing to improving the convenience of the city. It also links with digital maps and local government apps to provide information on the bus's current location and the surrounding area along its route. Furthermore, the route will be expanded in February 2025, and it is expected to spread throughout the city.

With the aim of improving mobility in the city center, a demonstration experiment is held every year to implement regular operation. This year, the fifth one, was held on a grand scale in conjunction with a town event, and it was confirmed that awareness of autonomous driving bus has increased. Efforts are underway to obtain useful data for implementation, such as verifying the communication status of remote monitoring and driving routes.

ARMA has been adopted for the first municipally-led, regular operation of autonomous driving buses in Japan. Four years have passed since the start of operations, and it has steadily become established in the community. As a vital route connecting townspeople, it contributes to improving convenience and promoting mobility for residents. Furthermore, autonomous driving buses are monitored in real time from a remote monitoring center, supporting safe and smooth operation.

Haneda Innovation City, Tokyo
It operates regularly as a free shuttle bus within the commercial facility. Since August 2024, it has been operating at Level 4 (fully autonomous driving without a driver), the first of its kind in Japan, but only on sunny days. This provides visitors with convenient transportation within the facility and offers them an opportunity to experience autonomous driving technology.
