(MENAFN- Robotics & automation News) The Jacksonville transportation Authority (JTA) and Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ) have introduced autonomous vehicles on FSCJ's downtown campus, making it the first college campus in the state of Florida to receive autonomous shuttles for students and visitors.
The initiative is in collaboration with Beep and Oxa .
Nat Ford, JTA CEO, says:“Our partnership with FSCJ and our industry partners Beep and Oxa, goes beyond merely deploying autonomous vehicles on campus – it marks a significant stride towards enhancing mobility in Jacksonville, making it more efficient and safer.
