APPLIED EV & IBEO BRING THE BLANC ROBOT FULLY AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE TO GERMANY

In another significant milestone for Applied EV, and in partnership with Ibeo, we’re delighted to see Blanc Robot autonomous vehicles leaving Australian shores for their first appearance in Hamburg, Germany.

Blanc Robot – and the ‘Digital Backbone’ centralised control system which underpins its software controlled operation – is a significant step forward in the commercialisation of autonomous vehicle technology. Ibeo partnership vehicles will be equipped with ten ibeoNEXT sensors and the Ibeo Driver software, enabling the Blanc Robot platform for Level 4 autonomous driving. Blanc Robot’s modular platform will enable these vehicles to be configured to meet a multitude of use cases, from an autonomous passenger carrier to a parcel delivery solution or even a transporter for heavy work equipment.

Blanc Robot will make its German debut at ITS Hamburg, on the Ibeo trade stand, from October 11 to October 15.
