The proving ground will allow TRI to test out both its ‘Guardian’ and its ‘Chauffeur’ autonomous driving systems, which aim at automated safety protocols to assist human drivers, and full autonomy respectively. >TRI has just unveiled its platform 2.1 test vehicle, which includes new sensor hardware and compute, as well as updated version of its test systems. It’s also the first test car platform created by TRI that allows for testing of both Chauffeur and Guardian in the same vehicle – previously they required separate cars specifically tuned for each to test.
