无人驾驶面包车服务推出在汉堡traffic
A self driving minibus has started operation in the traffic of Hamburg.
HEAT（Hamburg Electric Autonomous Transportation）项目将领先两个月的世界大会。
“HEAT marks the first research project in Germany in which an autonomous bus operates under real traffic conditions through a control center in the middle of a Germany city,” said Henrik Falk, CEO of travel operator Hochbahn.
自主操作的小巴是由德国提供商IAV开发的，有三个座位和四个座位，可容纳四个座位，并配备了无障碍条目和出口的坡道。由于目前与大流行有关的卫生法规，容量同时限制为三人。骑行的唯一要求是每个应用程序事先注册并戴上标准的医疗面膜。
“热概念使我们能够在汉堡的范围内安全地操作全自动班车，以供当地公共交通工具。热量证明了明天的可持续性，面向用户的移动性 - 作为高科技解决方案的提供商，IAV在塑造中起着关键作用。”。

该车辆对周围环境的直接观察和评估是基于照相机支持的雷达和激光雷达传感器系统。小巴还依靠西门子移动性开发的新路线基础设施，并由汉堡·韦尔克尔桑拉根（HHVA）安装。
In addition, it uses a high-resolution map of its current route, accurate down to a few centimeters, provided by the city of Hamburg. The shuttle processes information from the map to precisely determine its position after comparing it with data from its immediate surroundings for navigation.
The use of roadside infrastructure is a unique feature of HEAT compared to other projects with autonomous vehicles. This infrastructure provides additional data along the route about other vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians outside the sensor range of the minibus.
车辆与周围基础设施之间的通信也使小巴可以通过交通信号灯而无需车辆服务员干预。所有系统组件的持续相互作用使小巴可以独立查看和评估整个交叉路口，包括其他接近的车辆，行人或自行车，并在情况允许的情况下自动停止并恢复转弯。
“By integrating a new technology for autonomous driving into Hamburg’s road traffic, HEAT is providing a strong stimulus for the development of future mobility. Comfortable, convenient and climate-friendly local public transport should be available throughout the city in the future as a viable alternative to using private cars. At the same time, the HEAT project also offers the city a preview of the ITS World Congress being held this October. At the event, Hamburg will show mobility concepts for the future, including autonomous driving in actual operation, intelligent and networked traffic management for both road and rail, and digital services that make our mobility easier, more comfortable and more convenient,” said Dr. Peter Tschentscher, Mayor of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.
那些有兴趣的人可以在近两公里的巡回赛上乘坐五个停靠点，直到10月中旬开始。该车辆通过Sandtorpark和Kaiserkai在Elbphilharmonie音乐厅沿着Sandtorpark和Kaiserkai进行操作，速度高达25 km/h。
“Autonomous shuttles can play an essential role as a new and attractive form of mobility. To provide them, we need to have intelligent transport systems. HEAT demonstrates how linking infrastructure and vehicle data contributes to the reliability of such a system. Siemens Mobility will use the findings from the HEAT project to further refine and advance our vision of autonomous public transport solutions for cities,” said Manfred Fuhg, Vice President Sales Rail Infrastructure Germany at Siemens Mobility.
The service follows extensive trials over the last two years with DLR collecting data .
“我们的研究重点是人们及其在新的移动系统方面的需求和需求。一方面是用户：我们想了解他们在自动驾驶汽车方面的体验以及他们需要感到舒适的东西。基于此信息，我们可以为以用户为导向的无人驾驶操作开发技术解决方案。另一方面，HEAT还为我们提供了一个很好的机会，可以调查在公共交通中使用自动驾驶汽车如何影响控制中心的活动，这对设计未来的控制中心工作场所意味着什么。” Michael Ortgiese博士说。DLR副科学总监 - 运输系统技术研究所。
One of the biggest challenges in the research project remains developing a legal framework for allowing autonomous vehicle operations. It was only in May of this year that Germany’s Federal Council finally approved a legal resolution that permits autonomous vehicles to operate without drivers in specifically defined public road space. However, this decision came too late for the HEAT project, and as a result, a vehicle attendant must remain on board to ensure safety until the ITS World Congress.
