(MENAFNEditorial)

The University of Michigan recently celebrated the opening of Mcity the world’s first controlled environment specifically designed to test the potential of connected and automated vehicle technologies that will lead the way to mass-market driverless cars.

“We believe that this transformation to connected and automated mobility will be a game changer for safety for efficiency for energy and for accessibility” said Peter Sweatman director of the U-M Mobility Transformation Center. “Our cities will be much better to live in our suburbs will be much better to live in. These technologies truly open the door to 21st century mobility.”

Mcity was designed and developed by U-M’s interdisciplinary MTC in partnership with the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT).

“MTC and Mcity highlight the interdisciplinary strengths of U-M” said U-M President Mark Schlissel. “The initiative also demonstrates the great potential in working with partners outside the university to address compelling issues of broad impact.”
