These Driverless Snowploughs Are Clearing Runways In Norway

in new •  6 years ago 

An airport in Norway has been cleared of snow by completely autonomous snowploughs, and it could help reduce airport delays.

The technology uses 4G communications and GPS to allow retrofitted machines to navigate around runways. The 5.5 metre wide vehicles are capable of clearing 357,500 square metres an hour, and can work in formation with several other snowploughs at once, further increasing their efficiency.
