Autonomous and inclusive mobility: the prototype "Sharing for Caring" presented

In Darfo Boario Terme, the "Sharing for Caring" project was presented, the first Italian prototype of autonomous mobility designed for elderly people and those with physical-motor disabilities.
An electric Fiat 500 developed within the National Center for Sustainable Mobility, by the Polytechnic University of Milan, demonstrating the technological feasibility of an accessible, sustainable, and replicable service in small municipalities.

The heart of the initiative is a Fiat 500 3+1, chosen for the ease of access guaranteed by the rear door against the wind. It has been equipped with an advanced autonomous driving system developed by the AIDA team and connected via a network to a remote control system, thanks to the technological support of Cisco Italy. The test was conducted in the presence of a "safety driver", as required by the Smart Road Decree of 2018, but the car managed all phases of the route autonomously.
