Yellowstone National Park Testing Out Driverless Shuttles This Summer

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, sustainability, transportation

Autonomous, electric vehicles are driving around Yellowstone National Park in a new test program that could become a permanent mode of transportation.

Last week, the park debuted its new “TEDDY” program — or The Electronic Driverless Demonstration in Yellowstone.

“As visitation continues increasing in Yellowstone, we are looking at a range of visitor management actions that focus on protecting resources, improving the visitor experience, and reducing congestion, noise, and pollution,” Superintendent Cam Sholly said in a statement. “Shuttles will unquestionably play a key role in helping achieve these goals in many of the busiest areas of the park.”
