Driving urban mobility solutions at the S$50 million Continental-NTU Corporate Lab

NTU Singapore and Continental, a leading technology company, today launched the new Continental-NTU Corporate Laboratory to accelerate innovation in Singapore’s automotive industry and translate research outcomes into practical and viable urban mobility solutions for the future.

Researchers in the S$50 million joint corporate laboratory will apply their expertise in areas such as autonomous robotics, navigation, artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, smart materials, sensing, communication, and cloud technologies to develop real-world applications. 

Marking the launch is a new collaboration with JTC and the Land Transport Authority to trial autonomous robots for last mile deliveries. These robots have the ability to safely navigate along paths and across designated road crossings, clear building security turnstiles, and even take lifts autonomously.
