Mobility Services Development
A transportation service for more freedom of mobility
Nissan has been demonstrating and testing autonomous driving (AD) technology and a new mobility services since fiscal year 2017.
This is a significant step to empower mobility by resolving transportation service challenges faced by local communities, such as driver shortages resulting from an aging population. By leveraging its technology, Nissan aims to provide a broad range of new services that enable freedom of mobility.
In fiscal year 2027 Nissan aims to provide autonomous driving mobility services, in collaboration with municipalities and transportation operators, with remote monitoring.
* Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. fiscal years run from April 1 to March 31.
Test milestones
How they work
Test vehicle sensors
The latest test vehicles are based on the Serena — Japan’s top selling minivan — and incorporate 14 cameras, nine radars and six LiDAR sensors. The roof-mounted sensors offer significantly expanded detection by taking advantage of the height of the Serena and enabling more accurate detection of its surroundings, compared to earlier test vehicles. In addition, the use of AI has significantly enhanced recognition, behavioral prediction and judgment as well as control, delivering smooth operation in a variety of complex scenarios.
