The deployment of CarMedialab’s vehicle monitoring system, MOBILEvhm, will enable C-TRAN to actively monitor the health of its entire bus fleet, including both diesel and electric buses. MOBILEvhm identifies potential vehicle issues and sends alerts to the relevant staff, ensuring more efficient fleet maintenance through proactive bus care.
With the utilization of CarMedialab's driver assistance system, MOBILEefficiency, C-TRAN bus drivers will have an onboard tool for more energy-efficient driving. This system will not only contribute to reduced energy consumption but also enhance passenger comfort by ensuring smoother rides.
The collaboration between C-TRAN, INIT, and CarMedialab is a significant testament to their commitment to creating a sustainable and efficient future for public transportation in the Vancouver-Portland region. By embracing electric buses and introducing these new technologies, C-TRAN will improve service quality for its passengers while minimizing its environmental impact. The new e-buses are not only environmentally friendly, but also efficient and quiet, with a range of two hundred miles.
