A “unique in Europe” testing mobile lab for autonomous vehicles opened in Tallinn on Tuesday which allows companies to test self-driving vehicles in real-life situations and bring their solutions to market faster.
The mobile lab is a cooperation between Estonia’s Applied Research Center and the National Metrology Institute Metrosert. In a statement, Metrosert said the mobile lab is “unique in Europe.”
It enables testing to be carried out where the client’s development team is based or where the vehicle will actually be deployed.
This makes testing more flexible and cost-effective compared to stationary laboratories and can make testing accessible for small and medium-sized developers, the company said.
“This way, the lab supports the export capability of local tech companies and contributes to shaping a safer traffic environment in Estonia,” said Taaniel Tigas, head of the Autonomous Vehicle Division at Metrosert’s Center for Applied Research.
