AITX CEO Explains ROAMEO's Viral Speed Bump Encounter
AI Summary
Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions Inc. (AITX) CEO Steve Reinharz addressed a viral social media video featuring its ROAMEO autonomous security patrol vehicle navigating a speed bump. He explained that the vehicle's repeated approach and eventual clearing of the obstacle reflected a deliberately conservative control strategy. This design progressively increases throttle when commanded movement is not achieved, ensuring safety despite varying speed bump geometries.
Key Highlights
- AITX CEO addressed a viral video of the ROAMEO autonomous vehicle encountering a speed bump.
