Under the guidance of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, the Japan Society for the Promotion of Machine Industry has been conducting experimental research in an effort to develop a computer-controlled vehicles system (CVS). The system is expected to solve traffic problems in large cities, in which various factors are complicatedly linked together: traffic jams, air pollution from exhaust fumes, traffic accidents, lack of parking lots, increases in traffic-related costs, etc. This article describes the application of the CVS to selected routes in the city and the results of an actual scale experiment.
