Public Personal Mobility (PPM) (Concept model): Mobility service system with a wide range of potential applications based on low-speed autonomous driving and passenger-cargo shared usage

PPM is a form of comfortable and convenient on-demand compact low-speed mobility for “one-mile” short-distance travel. Its simple construction enables customization for a variety of applications, such as the transportation of passengers and/or cargo, or further conversion into a mobile sales kiosk. In anticipation of further future autonomous travel, provisions for a variety of user-friendly mobility service applications will be showcased, such as AI-based facial recognition registration and communication between the vehicle (robot) and the passenger (human).

During CES 2019, Yamaha Motor is conducting demonstrations of the PPM featuring an “AI conductor” on dedicated paths adjacent to the South Hall which houses the Yamaha Motor booth. After facial recognition registration at the Yamaha Booth or the boarding point, passengers can control the specific AI conductor on a demonstration ride of the vehicle. In addition, the AI conductor controls the start and stop of the vehicle through the passenger’s gestures. Visitors can experience the future of personal travel made possible by the Yamaha autonomous systems.
