Corporation (NYSE:CUB) today announced that its Cubic
Transportation Systems (CTS) business division will participate in
ITS World Congress 2017 in Montreal,
Canada from October 29 to November
2. ITS World Congress brings together global leaders in
intelligent and transformative transportation to showcase and
evaluate the latest innovative concepts, active prototypes and
live systems.
"The transportation industry is evolving rapidly to address the
challenges facing our increasingly connected and technologically
savvy societies," said Chris Bax,
vice president, ITS global strategy, Cubic Transportation Systems.
"Cubic is proud to be at the forefront of transport innovation,
helping address the needs of agencies and travelers in transport
management, self-service, real-time passenger information (RTPI)
and autonomous vehicles technology."
Cubic will showcase the following innovations in booth #1815 at
the Palais des congrès de Montréal:
- Cubic Transport Management Platform: specializes in the
development and supply of complex traffic management systems for
the monitoring and control of urban and intra-urban road
networks.
- Cubic Virtual Ticket Agent: a self-service virtual
ticket kiosk that allows public transit agencies to decrease or
eliminate the need for customer service representatives at the
least busy stations on a rail line, improve customer service at
unattended devices and more easily address clients speaking
different languages.
- The Next-Generation NextBus Platform: the leader in RTPI
systems designed for multimodal transit agencies, authorities and
operators. The NextBus Suite introduces a new Transit Management as
a Service (TMaaS) cloud-based and machine learning architecture
that will deliver further enhanced RTPI, proactive transit fleet
operations and mobile user experience.
- Tools for Autonomous Logistics Operations and Management
(TALON): software capable of coordinating fleets of thousands
of autonomous vehicles. TALON is an ambitious initiative built from
a partnership between Cubic, Immense Simulations and cloud-based
