ORLANDO, July 28, 2020 — Beep, a Florida-based autonomous mobility-as-a-service provider, and Local Motors, a digital vehicle manufacturer, have announced a strategic partnership and new reseller agreement. The collaboration is intended to significantly expand the number of autonomous vehicle shuttles on both public and private roads, enabling Beep and Local Motors to bring autonomous solutions to more people and enhance the rider experience through continued testing and safe deployments.

Under the reseller agreement, Local Motors will provide Beep with Olli 2.0 autonomous, electric, 3D-printed shuttles for future customer deployments. Beep and Local Motors will also team up to advance and expand the operating domain of multipassenger, autonomous vehicles in concert with their ongoing testing and information-sharing program through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The Olli 3D-printed shuttle is currently deployed at universities, business parks, and local communities throughout the U.S. and in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. It uses seven lidar sensors, four radar sensors, and 10 optical cameras to detect obstacles and pedestrians.

Glossary
machine vision
Machine vision, also known as computer vision or computer sight, refers to the technology that enables machines, typically computers, to interpret and understand visual information from the world, much like the human visual system. It involves the development and application of algorithms and systems that allow machines to acquire, process, analyze, and make decisions based on visual data. Key aspects of machine vision include: Image acquisition: Machine vision systems use various...
lidar
Lidar, short for light detection and ranging, is a remote sensing technology that uses laser light to measure distances and generate precise, three-dimensional information about the shape and characteristics of objects and surfaces. Lidar systems typically consist of a laser scanner, a GPS receiver, and an inertial measurement unit (IMU), all integrated into a single system. Here is how lidar works: Laser emission: A laser emits laser pulses, often in the form of rapid and repetitive laser...
