Eco Factor: Zero-emission car powered by electric motors.
ZMP Inc has announced that the company will release its all-electric single seat robot car later this year. The RoboCar G is based on the EV platform developed by the Next-Gen EV Study Group at Gunma University. The car according to ZMP has been developed for research and development as a vehicle that is large enough for practical use.
The computer-controlled vehicle features several sensors that include a laser range finder, a stereo camera, a GPS, an IMU, a milliwave radar and a sonar sensor. Sensors will also be mounted according to the need of the user and connected with one another via a network. The vehicle will be built to order and shipment is expected to begin in or after November 2010.
