With ZF's electrically driven Innovation Van, the technology company transfers its comprehensive expertise in automated driving to the requirements of the logistics sector.
The Innovation Van is equipped with level 4 automated driving functions. The delivery truck is designed to independently maneuver through urban surroundings, stay on course even if roads do not have lane markings, recognize both traffic lights and road signs and react to sudden hazardous situations. In addition, it can recognize and avoid obstacles such as double-parked vehicles. If two addresses are so close that the best delivery route is on foot, the Innovation Van will follow the driver as if on a virtual leash. If there is no parking available outside an address, the courier can send the vehicle ahead to the next stop, where it will look for a parking space on its own. The technologi is using an algorithm that takes into account customer requests in real time and calculates the most efficient delivery route.
