ITS provider HMI Technologies and its subsidiary Ohmio will develop a manufacturing plant for autonomous vehicles and an artificial intelligence transport research centre in the Heshan, China. The project is part of a $20m agreement with the city’s Industrial City Management Committee and will commence from 1 July.

HMI Technologies (HMI) has partnered with Transmax to examine advances in traffic management, intelligent transport systems (ITS) and autonomous vehicles (AVs). Delivering safety and efficiencies potential of connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) by connecting them with traffic management systems through ITS infrastructure such as beacons and radar will be a key focus of the agreement.

Ohmio Automotion has launched in New Zealand to begin production of self-driving vehicles in the country, using technology developed by Australian parent company HMI Technologies. The electric Ohmio Hop shuttles are self-driving, fully electric autonomous vehicles which Ohmio says can form a connected convoy, enabling them to be used as a scalable public transport solution. They have been designed to be a last mile solution, carrying people and their luggage short distances, providing the last mile conn

ITS Australia has welcomed the latest Victorian state government announcement of connected and automated vehicle (CAV) trials on public roads in Australia, using on the Monash-CityLink-Tullarmarine corridor in partnership with RACV, Transurban and VicRoads. The three phase trial will also include vehicle manufacturers BMW, Mercedes, Tesla and Volvo, with phase one due to be completed this year.

New South Wales government in Australia has announced the state's first automated vehicle trial, with New Zealand’s HMI Technologies as the project's lead partner. Taking place at Sydney's Olympic Park the public will get to experience short journeys aboard the automated smart shuttle after preliminary safety tests are complete. The self-driving, fully electric vehicle carries up to 15 people and is programmed to navigate around the scenic grounds, venues and businesses at Sydney’s Olympic Park. The trial i

A consortium including HMI Technologies, La Trobe University, Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV), Australian Road Research Group (ARRB) and Keolis Downer is to conduct a trial of autonomous vehicles in Victoria, Australia to explore the use of driverless shuttles in the context of a university’s student mobility requirements.

New Zealand’s first on-road research trial of autonomous vehicles has been launched at Christchurch Airport, with the arrival of a fully autonomous Smart Shuttle which will begin testing in the next few weeks. Christchurch International Airport has partnered with the country’s intelligent transport system (ITS) supplier, HMI Technologies for the trial, which will use a French manufactured NAVYA ARMA autonomous shuttle vehicle operating on private roads of the Christchurch International Airport campus. Th

In breaking news from the ITS World Congress, HMI Technologies announced that New Zealand's first autonomous bus will soon be operating at Christchurch airport. Following meetings at Intertraffic in Amsterdam and consequent conversations with engineers, HMI decided to purchase the vehicle from French manufacturer NAVYA. According to HMI’s Dean Zabrieszach, the announcement has already generated plenty of interest.
