UKAlexander Dennis Ltd, a subsidiary of the NFI Group based in Larbert, UK, unveiled an autonomous bus at its Farnborough site on 27 January, which was developed as part of a government-funded project with self-driving hardware and software specialists Fusion Processing Ltd.

The vehicle in question is a battery electric ‘Enviro100’ which has been retrofitted with Fusion’s ‘CAVstar’ automated driving system.

Once the fine-tuning phase is completed, it will begin transporting passengers around the Cambridge Biomedical Campus. A safety driver will be on board to monitor the vehicle.
