In separate efforts, the project investigators have been working with the Ohio State University (OSU) Transportation and Parking Services and Clever Devices, Incorporated to implement a 'smart bus' system on OSU's Campus Area Bus Service (CABS). This smart bus system will include, among other things, advanced automatic vehicle location (AVL) and automated passenger counting (APC) capabilities. CABS is one of the largest campus bus systems in the United States, serving three to four million passengers annually, and Clever Devices is arguably the industry leader in equipping and operating advanced information technologies for large public transportation agencies. This effort would be Clever Devices' first implementation on a campus transit system, and the combined effort offers an opportunity to develop a unique infrastructure for education and research-the OSU Campus Transit Laboratory (CTL).
