Florida public transit company turns to AI to help with bus reliability
Buses are complex computers on wheels with well over 100 different sensors. Those sensors are now being read by artificial intelligence at the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority. “This form of technology we’re using is basically a technician on a bus 365, 24/7. Always on, always monitoring the sensors, pulling down data. It can do things and go longer than a typical technician can do,” said Henry Lukasik, Director of Maintenance for PSTA.
