A French University has demonstrated the first autonomous vehicle powered by Galileo.
In a world first, the Renault ZOE electric car can autonomously drive along public roads using Galileo signals and the ESCAPE GNSS engine (EGE), funded by the European GNSS Agency.
The EGE prototype design includes several major components, including a novel multi-frequency, multi-constellation automotive-grade GNSS receiver. The main distinguishing feature of the ESCAPE receiver is its ability to precisely and simultaneously process signals from two different GNSS bands and from different satellite constellations.
The receiver is also a first-of-a-kind device in its segment to support the new Navigation Message Authentication (NMA) service of Galileo - the open E1 signal.
