Tests of the functioning of the autonomous movement of trams began in the Nizhny Novgorod region, RBC writes. In route No. 5, a retro car UTM 71-415R equipped with driver assistance systems is tested. For now, the vehicle is operating under full human control to collect data and train machine vision, after which the system will be perfected for autonomous movement.
