India’s first self-driving bus was unveiled by Anna University in Chennai on December 20, 2022. The bus is equipped with sensors and cameras that allow it to navigate its way around the city without human intervention.

The bus is a part of Anna University’s Center for Autonomous Systems (CAS). The CAS is a research and development center that is working on developing autonomous vehicles for various applications.

The self-driving bus is still under development, but it has already been tested on a number of routes in Chennai. The bus is able to navigate its way around traffic and pedestrians, and it can even stop at bus stops and pick up passengers.

The self-driving bus is a major milestone in India’s journey towards developing autonomous vehicles. The bus is a proof-of-concept that shows that it is possible to develop self-driving vehicles that can operate in real-world conditions.

The development of self-driving vehicles has the potential to revolutionize transportation in India. Self-driving vehicles could help to reduce traffic congestion, improve road safety, and make transportation more accessible to people with disabilities.

The development of self-driving vehicles is still in its early stages, but it is a promising technology that has the potential to make a significant impact on transportation in India.
