Efficient, flexible and safe container transport - with your current fleet
Boost port productivity and improve worker safety by transforming your existing terminal tractors into autonomous vehicles. Add sensors and computers into your existing terminal tractors and enjoy autonomous vehicles that operate in mixed traffic, and a fast ROI.
Retrofit Kit: cutting-edge efficiency, minus the pain
DriveU.auto's ATT retrofit kit transforms existing (legacy) diesel or electric terminal tractors into autonomous vehicles - without introducing new vehicles to your fleet or writing off old ones and without disrupting ongoing operations. No specialized hardware or software is required from the tractor vendors.
Seamless Autonomous Operation in Mixed Traffic Environments
The retrofitted terminal tractors operate fully autonomously in mixed traffic—tackling repetitive driving tasks reliably, safely, and 24/7.
With advanced autonomy, ATTs perform complex maneuvers on par with human drivers: “eyes-off” driving with no supervision, automatic obstacle detection and stopping, safe overtaking, smooth intersection crossing, and intelligent queuing behind other TTs—all without costly infrastructure changes.
If needed, human drivers can operate the retrofitted ATTs to ensure operational continuity.
Continuous Operation with Remote Control for Edge Cases:
The system includes a remote control capability for managing unusual situations or instances where autonomy might not perform optimally. Each remote pilot - now situated in a safe environment - can efficiently oversee up to eight ATTs simultaneously.
This seamless combination of autonomous driving and human pilots enables faster deployment, ensures continuous operations, and helps you to meet performance KPIs.
Highly Accurate GPS-Independent Localization
The ATT utilizes our precise localization solution for consistent, highly accurate positioning, eliminating reliance on GPS while ensuring safe and correct operation at all times.
Overlying Safety “Cocoon"
Safety of people and equipment is paramount. A dedicated safety component provides an independent layer of protection. This component overrides both the autonomous and remote drivers to ensure safety at all times. For example, if a remote pilot attempts to accelerate while a person is in front of the ATT, the safety cocoon will automatically initiate braking.
Improve Efficiency at Rationalized Investments with Rapid ROI
The Return on Investment (ROI) on the Retrofit Kit is estimated to be less than two years. Our solution allows for gradual fleet upgrades, enabling you to begin with a few ATTs, perhaps on the night shift, and expand your autonomous fleet at your own pace.
