The CyCab - a new generation of the IT-car in Europe

The CyCab is a new generation of modular electric vehicles, with advanced features such as automatic motions and safety reflexes (real-time distributed control including robotics algorithms), a user-friendly MMI (Man Machine Interface) which is Internet compatible through wireless Ethernet communications. The main use of this new generation of vehicles is for automatic or assisted transport of goods and people in car-free areas (e.g. university campus, historical city centers, exposition-theme park, etc...). The article will describe the strategy adopted to asses the whole CyCab control.
