History:
Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) is a lidar (light detection and ranging) guided articulated bus system for urban passenger transport. Developed by CRRC Zhuzhou Institute Co Ltd, it was unveiled in Zhuzhou in the Hunan province, China on June 2, 2017. ART has been described as a combination between a bus and a tram. Its exterior is composed of individual fixed sections joined by articulated gangways, resembling a rubber-tyred tram.
Automated Rapid Transit systems (ARTs) can operate independently without the need for a guiding sensor and as a result, they fall under the classification of buses. Consequently, vehicles deployed on these routes are mandated to display license plates. Before the announcement by CRRC, optical guided buses have been in use in a number of cities in Europe and North America.
An ART bus with three carriages is approximately 30 m (98 ft 5 in) long and costs approximately US$2.2 million to build. It can travel at a speed of 70 km/h (43 mph) and can carry up to 200 passengers. A four carriage model was introduced in 2021 which can carry 320 passengers. Two buses can closely follow each other without being mechanically connected, similarly to multiple unit train control. The entire ART has a low-floor design from a space frame with bolted-on panels to support the weight of passengers. It is built as a bi-directional vehicle, with driver's cabs at either end, allowing it to travel in either direction at full speed.
The 6.5 km (4.0 miles) long ART lane was built through downtown Zhuzhou and inaugurated in 2018.
The ART is equipped with various optical and other types of sensors to allow the vehicle to automatically follow a route defined by a virtual track of markings on the roadway. A steering wheel also allows the driver to manually guide the vehicle, including around detours. A Lane Departure Warning System helps to keep the vehicle in its lane and automatically warns, if it drifts away from the lane. A Collision Warning System supports the driver on keeping a safe distance with other vehicles on the road and if the proximity reduces below a given level, it alerts the driver by a warning sign. The Route Change Authorization is a navigation device, which analyzes the traffic conditions on the chosen route and can recommend a detour to avoid traffic congestion. The Electronic Rearview Mirrors work with remotely adjustable cameras and provide a clearer view than conventional mirrors, including an auto dimming device to reduce the glare.
The ART is powered by lithium-titanate batteries and can travel a distance of 40 km (25 miles) per full charge. The batteries can be recharged via current collectors at stations. The recharging time for a 3 to 5 km (1.9 to 3.1 mi) trip is 30 seconds and for a 25 km (16 mi) trip, 10 minutes.
