CROZET, Va., Dec. 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Perrone Robotics (“Perrone”), the leading provider of fully autonomous vehicle systems and turn-key vehicle solutions for the mobility of people and things, today announced its participation at CES® 2022, the world’s most influential technology event, which runs Jan. 5-8, 2022 in Las Vegas.
Throughout the show, Perrone will conduct a series of AV-mobility and e-mobility experiences at their “Innovation Alley” demonstration track at booth #WP-8 in the West Hall. CES attendees and media will have the opportunity to ride, experience, and connect with experts from Perrone Robotics, Local Motors, and other key partners as they bring together the most advanced AV mobility options for reliable transit and transportation programs.
Perrone founder and CEO, Paul Perrone, will be on hand to discuss new developments and deployments with the company and its customers. Mr. Perrone holds the world’s first pioneer’s patent for “MAX,” a general purpose robotics operating system for AV, which was a semi-finalist in both the DARPA Grand Challenge and DARPA Urban Challenge and chaired the first iteration of SAE’s level of autonomy.
“Innovation Alley” Demonstration Track + Ride Experience - West Hall - #WP - 8
Ride, experience and see first-hand a range of fully autonomous, all-electric small, medium and large AV turn-key vehicle examples that include shuttle, cargo and delivery options throughout the show. Perrone will feature rides on the AV Star, the nation’s first fully-autonomous, zero-emissions, all-electric, ADA-compliant, FMVSS certified and Buy America shuttle. The AV Star was developed with GreenPower Motor Company (Nasdaq: GP) to accelerate autonomous shuttle offerings for the transit and transportation sector. The University of Wisconsin-Madison, Badger, a low speed electric vehicle, will also exhibit at the booth. Also available in the Innovation Alley will be representatives from Tropos Motors to discuss the ABLE ST™ platform, a versatile eCUV (electric Commercial Utility Vehicle).
