Introduction

Environmentally friendlyClean energy alternative for urban transportation.Pod Cars are automated driverless vehicles

Operate on underground shuttle network P od Car networks will operate much like traditionalrail and streetcar networks

Reas on b eh ind l a unc h

Personal rapid transit is a new publictransportation system designed for swift travelin congested areas. These Pod Car networkswill operate much like traditional rail andstreetcar networks, on raised platforms above

busy roads and highways (or underground).

Cha lle ng es

A fter almost 50 years of trial and error, these futuristic personal rapid transit systems, or P.R.T.s, may becoming to airports and city centers because of

technological advances and a growing interest insustainable transportation.

Pod Ca rs

Pod car," also called "personal rapid transit" -- asystem of vehicles that provide on-demand, private,nonstop travel. These vehicles can carry people or light

freight. They ride on small, overhead guide ways -- likea monorail or people mover -- above existing roads, andare powered entirely by electricity

Mira cle

Picture the car as an elevated, driverless taxi. It's under computer control, so there would be no accidents,thereby saving lives and lowering insurance costs.

CAPACITY OFPASSENGE R

Pod cars are automated vehicles that carry up to six passengers who are traveling together to the samedestination. The cars ride on dedicated guide waysabove or alongside automobile and bus traffic.Propulsion is provided by an electric motor, and the car rides on small rubber tiresNavigation is entirely automated through a computer control system.

reduced carbon pollutionlower operating costscarry up to six passengers

Pod Cars will be convenient, affordable to operate and beneficial to the environment as they are powered byelectricity.use at airports, urban centers, office parks, shopping

malls and tourist attractions etc.

D EMAND OF POD CAR S

M any airports offer automated peoplemoversdriverless train cars linked together that

move passengers between parking lotsand terminals, stopping at every stationon a constant loop.By contrast, pod cars move only ondemand, offering point-to-point servicewith no fixed schedule.Non stop Taxi service.

Pod Ca r Vs. All Ca rs

Current public transit can only serve those who livenear stations or bus lines and who want to travel whereand when the system operates. That's why most people

prefer a car that's available 24/7, if we can drive andcan afford the gas.Pod cars offer a new kind of service, providing theconvenience of an auto without the negatives for theindividual -- costly to purchase plus high costs for gasoline, insurance, maintenance and parking. For society, Pod cars would reduce the use of petroleum aswell as pollution, congestion, accidents, injuries anddeaths.

Pod Ca r a nd En e rgy

Reduce greenhouse gas emissions.Possibility to power the system viarenewable energy.Combining two technologies into onei.e. solar and pod cars.This technology is no doubt going toreduce the demand and usage of other fossil fuel and other petroleum

products.

Tra ve l on PR T s ys tem

ork on the principal similar to thesystem used in elevator, you have submitthe destination before the car starts andthen car will drop you on your destination.Secondly, it works on a system similar tocredit card, you swap your card it will ask your destination and then will tell you theterminal number and car number for your destination.

Sp ee d o f Ca r

PRT vehicles will travel at speeds of approximately 7 meters per second,with the longest routes in the city

being perhaps 2.5 km. So lets sayyou reach a station, wait maybe 1.5minutes for your car to arrive, travelfor 5 minutes if your destination isrelatively far away, and then exit the

station, which will take around aminute. So the longest trips in thecity will be around 7, perhaps 10minutes long.

H ow Sys tem was P la nn e d

outW e used the same predict and provide modelsthat are used to plan new roads. W e had roughdata about things like population size, arrivaltimes, etc. W e ran a few models and found that afew areas came out congested, so we interactedwith the town planners and tried to get the best

placement for various land uses.

Idea l Loc a tion s

There is a lot of interest in PRT right now, especially innew developments. In existing cities its a bit trickier tomake it work. The optimum place for a system like PRTcould be in smaller towns and in contained, controlledenvironments, like hospitals, universities, new businessdistricts.

This would moving so fast and we thought that we wantto do any thing for our country people thats why we arelaunching this product to provide facilities to our country people from some major problem which dailycomes in our routine like pollution, road jam etc and themajor thing which comes in our life once or twice thatsis road accident.
