Supported by Navistar, which announced recently that it is investing an undisclosed amount in the US-based autonomous vehicle start-up, TuSimple has developed a semi-truck that has the potential to revolutionise the freight transport industry in the US. The irony of the situation is that it is not the only one. There are others in the fray too, like Tesla, Nikola and many others. Working closely with Navistar, the company has developed an SAE Level 4 self-driving semi-truck that is scheduled to go into production by 2024. Poised to add a new dimension to the trucking scene in the US by combining the legacy of truck manufactured by Navistar with the domain knowledge and expertise in IoT, AI and areas of automation of TuSimple, the semi-truck employs Autonomous Freight Network (AFN). About self driving trucks, AFN is an ecosystem which consists of autonomous trucks, digitally mapped routes, terminals and autonomous operations monitoring system called TuSimple Connect.
