Well known for the LUTZ Pathfinder driverless vehicle project in Milton Keynes, the Transport Systems Catapult is the UK’s technology and innovation centre for Intelligent Mobility - using new and emerging technologies to enable smarter and more efficient transportation of people and goods. The TSC is here to catapult new and innovative transport ideas from conception to commercialisation. Their vision is to create an environment that will make the UK a world leader in transport systems innovation by acting as a catalyst, bridging the gap between academic research and industry, encouraging collaboration and leading cutting edge transport projects and initiatives. Autonomous vehicles, virtual reality applications, citywide transport simulations, end-to-end journey systems and sentiment mapping are just some of the things the TSC is working on at their world class Imovation Centre facility. Many of the projects they are undertaking have the potential to revolutionise the way transport is used, planned and delivered. So, if you are looking for the future of transport, the TSC is the place to be. Further information can be found at the TSC website https://ts.catapult.org.uk/
