Transit - Poised for IVI Development

The Federal Transit Administration is leading the effort to design, develop, and deploy Intelligent Vehicle Initiative (IVI) technologies on the transit bus vehicle platform. By, providing a method for quickly analyzing technologies and testing prototype systems, the FTA has shown a process for deploying advanced technologies on transit buses. This paper sets the stage for IVI development, and points out the differences in the transit vehicle platform as opposed to the light vehicle and commercial vehicle platforms. In addition, the paper highlights the advanced technology programs that FTA offers, and will use to bring IVI technologies to full-time operating service.
