R&D Cost for the Development of an Autonomous Driving Robot for Fully Automating Short-Distance Transport of Goods and People

Business Plan

Utilizing small autonomous driving robot technology, a large-scale operational system will be developed to enable short-distance, on-demand transport of goods and people in outdoor last-mile areas. By minimizing the risks associated with the commercialization and social implementation of this technology, we aim to achieve the deployment of a living infrastructure that fosters regional revitalization in an ultraaging society through the automation of goods and people transportation with reduced human intervention.

Research Outline

In this research and development project, we will conduct research on technology that enhances the autonomous driving rate, which is essential for large-scale implementation in the real world, and technology that accelerates the speed of social implementation, based on the development technology of the autonomous delivery robot LOMBY. We aim to elevate the following technologies to a level that enables large-scale social implementation:

• - Improvement of autonomous driving rates in multi-robot operations
• - Enhancement of traffic signal automatic recognition rates
• - Automation of robot driving environment setup (such as automatic generation of 3D maps)
