A memorandum of understanding (MoU) between Cambridge Electric Transport (CET) and London-based Osmosis AI will involve trials of autonomous technology using the CitiPod, a lightweight electric micromobility vehicle developed by CET’s sister company, Micromobility Innovation. The collaboration will integrate and test Osmosis AI’s autonomous software and systems on the CitiPod platform. The trials will investigate use cases including autonomous repositioning of shared vehicles, first- and last-mile transport services, freight and logistics operations, and campus-based mobility applications. Tony Ho, CEO of Osmosis AI, said the CitiPod is “exactly the kind of lightweight, practical vehicle platform where autonomy can be tested and deployed faster, more safely and more affordably than traditional car-scale autonomous vehicle programmes.” He added that Osmosis AI is building DriverAgent, a robotic driver platform combining vision-based perception, Vision-Language-Action driving intelligence, deterministic safety control and physical actuation. Sean Moroney, founder of CET and Micromobility Innovation, stated that “the greatest opportunity lies in applying autonomy to lightweight vehicles.”
