MOBILITY REVOLUTION
Advanced Smart Mobility
We will realize the smart mobility of society using the core technology of autonomous driving.

About Advanced Smart Mobility Co., Ltd.

We are a venture company collaborate with The University of Tokyo. We pursue the research in the university while embedding the results into products, and finally aim to contribute to the society. Our mission is to let all the people, not only healthy ones, but also disabled ones have comfortable travels through advanced mobility technologies.

The company was established on June 2014 for the objective to bring the research result of Prof. Yoshihiro Suda to products, who is the president of Advanced Mobility Research Center (ITS Center), Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo.

MISSION

Solution to the transportation and
logistical problems and Re-activation of local area.

Recently, problems due to the lack of drivers become more serious. For example, the loss of the economy caused by the disuse of bus or railway. One of our missions is to solve this kind of problem by creating the entire smart public transportation and creating a new value of autonomous driving.

We collaborate and maintain a sustainable relation
with service providers (transportation business operators).

We believe that only R&D cannot bring the bus or truck system into the real world. A mix of experiences through communication between engineers and service providers can also provide us a better understanding of the real-world service and problems.

Our projects

Truck/Bus Platooning

Truck/Bus Platooning

Using the controlling technique, the following driverless trucks can keep a short distance which can not only mitigate the lack of drivers but also reduce the release of carbon dioxide. The company is currently involved in lots of projects to develop the platooning truck/bus with autonomous driving system.

Autonomous Driving System

Autonomous Driving System

The autonomous driving system for trucks and buses are being developed for the re-activation of depopulation and aging area. AI technology is mainly utilized in the controlling system. Besides, the system is also combined with V2X technology to realize the safe transportation.

Core Technologies

Core Technologies

Many of state-of -art technologies need to be integrated in our autonomous driving system. For example, sensing, communication, controlling, image recognition, V2X, etc. These core technologies are being developed by our teams.

Field Test to Practical Realization

We have been conducting the field operation tests in various environments for the government and other clients. Based on the data through those demonstrations or experiments, we improve and reinforce our system, and we are promoting the introduction of autonomous driving trucks/buses into society.

  • ■ The demonstration in Okinawa Pref.
    (Cabinet Office SIP / Autonomous system)
  • ■ The demonstrations in road stations
    (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport)
  • ■ The demonstrations in restricted area such as the airport
    (Aviation Station of Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport / Aviation Renovation)
  • ■ The demonstrations using special terminal system
    (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport / R&D of Smart Mobility System)
  • ■ The platoon trucks
    (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport / R&D of Smart Mobility System)
