URBAN TRANSPORT POD
The people living in Milton Keynes, a town about 70 kilometres northwest of London, have been introduced to a new transport experience when they use “pods”( bộ phận nhỏ tách ra từ tàu hỏa) to travel on certain routes.
The pods are a kind of driverless cars which travel at 19km/h and are able to transport two people and their luggage. There is a touchscreen in the windshield( kính chắn gió) of the pods where passengers select their terminal. During the trip they can also read the news, check emails or play video games on the screen. Powered by electric motors, the pods have ultrasonic sensors ( hệ thống cảm ứng siêu âm ) and a GPS (global positioning system) system that help themselves know where they are going and how to avoid obstacles( chướng ngại vật) along the way. People can use a smartphone app( phần mềm của điện thoại) to hail( gọi tầu ) a pod in the street.
