The anticollision system from the Škoda Group stands out as one of the most precise solutions. It uses a unique combination of sensors that draw information from odometry, GNSS and HD maps for comprehensive monitoring of the surrounding area. Thanks to LiDAR technology and a camera, the system maps its surroundings with a range of 100 metres.

Imagine it in action – ACS creates a virtual tunnel in front of the tram, where it detects static and dynamic obstacles. In the event of a potential collision, the system immediately alerts the driver and activates emergency braking. What makes ACS truly exceptional is its flexibility in challenging visibility conditions such as snow, leaves or water glare, maintaining high reliability.

Extensive testing on the Škoda ForCity Smart Artic X54 tram in Tampere has produced excellent results and confirmed that the Škoda ACS system is a game changer in tram safety.
