Abstract
Most urban trips can be handled by vehicles weighing less than the riders, using 30 times less energy than a car. Such vehicles are commercially available, but not widespread. Automation of bicycle-class vehicles could form the backbone of an urban transportation system. Such a system is competitive with commuter trains in terms of capacity, speed and cost, but uses much less energy since it is not moving the same vehicle weight. This paper presents an open-source system to automate ultra-light vehicles.
