Applied Autonomy deploys autonomous vehicles in urban areas
- Published 23 March 2023 and updated 30 September 2026. Applied Autonomy advises transport operators on autonomous fleets through training, testing, demonstrations and implementation support. Its network technology shares road, weather, detour and traffic data so vehicles can operate more efficiently. It can also support dynamic road pricing to encourage ride-sharing and public transit.
- The page says cities and operators often lack expertise in designing fleet infrastructure. Applied Autonomy offers cost, risk and regulatory guidance and tests real-world safety and performance. A 50-passenger self-driving bus began a two-year Stavanger trial in May 2022 with Vy and Kolumbus; the bus was built by Karsan, using ADASTEC vehicle AI/sensors and Applied Autonomy monitoring. During testing, a safety driver remained onboard, with a future goal of remote supervision across multiple buses.
- Founded in 2017, the company is described as having 11 staff with logistics, communications, autonomy, architecture, cloud transport and AI expertise. The listing connects the work to UN goals 3, 9 and 11. The trial dates and staff figure may have changed since publication.
