Driving the Future of Sustainable Mobility
As the climate crisis intensifies, reimagining transportation systems is crucial. Traditional car-centric urban landscapes are major contributors to greenhouse gas…
The world of autonomous vehicles is rapidly advancing, and the potential to revolutionize industries is greater than ever. One standout example of innovation is the work being done by LoopX, a Waterloo-based startup that is leveraging the power of autonomous solutions to revolutionize the mobility sector, and the David Johnston Research + Technology Park (R+T Park) served as the perfect living lab to test and refine their technology.
During a pilot project in R+T Park, LoopX was able to leverage the 5G-enabled environment, allowing them to test their autonomous vehicles in a real-world environment. The highly connected, low-latency environment, combined with a real-world setting helped them refine their technology and ensure its readiness for industrial use.
In addition to the 5G-enabled testbed, LoopX has benefited from access to The Accelerator Centre, which offers mentorship, funding, and workspaces, playing a key role in their growth. The strong connection to the University of Waterloo, from which all of the founders graduated, has also provided access to top talent in robotics and AI, a valuable resource for LoopX as they continue to drive innovation.
By serving as a living lab, R+T Park allows LoopX to push their technology to its limits, all while benefiting from a supportive ecosystem of mentors, top-tier talent, and cutting-edge resources. The freedom to experiment in such an environment has been instrumental in helping LoopX navigate the complexities of autonomous vehicle development.
