An Aussie first The Australian Army has successfully operated an autonomous truck convoy on a Victorian highway!
As part of the Leader-Follower trial, a convoy of four autonomous Army trucks followed a crewed ‘leader’ vehicle on a public road in Victoria. The National Transport Research Organisation and Deakin University supported Army to conduct the trial – the first time an autonomous convoy has operated on an open public road in Australia.
The Leader-Follower trial is part of Army’s modernisation, which includes exploring human-machine teaming, quantum technology, artificial intelligence and electrification.
