Ford’s Miami self-driving car tests might have been successful during the coronavirus outbreak. The automaker, Argo AI, and The Education Fund are running an eight-week pilot program that uses autonomous Fusion Hybrid cars to deliver fresh produce to Miami-Dade County students learning from home.
During the tests, two AI specialists sit in each car to monitor the test, take control if necessary, and make the final delivery. It’s not completely a driverless test. Yet it helps test the self-driving AI in real-life situations like driveways and places without any parking.
This is the first time the company has used Argo’s self-driving technology as part of a public-facing partnership. You can expect “similar” pilots in 2021 based on the success of the Miami-area service, Ford said. Ford intends to launch autonomous deliveries that terminate any glaring mistakes.
