Mercedes Benz has unveiled the public transport of the future.. It is the Mercedes Benz self driving bus which will operate itself without a driver.

It interacts with its surroundings using the Daimler City Pilot Technology which includes 10 cameras and radar systems. This technology will enable the bus communicate with the traffic light network and apply its automatic brakes when necessary.

The bus is divided into three zones: a service zone at the front, an express zone in the middle for passengers traveling short distance and a lounge zone at the back for those traveling long distance.
The bus was tested in Amsterdam, Netherlands where it performed well.

The chairs are based on the zones.. the zone for long journey is very much comfortable than that of short journey

According to Karl Marx, automation that displaces workers in favour of machines that can produce more goods in less time is part and parcel of how capitalism operates. By developing fixed capital (machines), bosses can do away with much of the variable capital (workers) that saps their bottom line with pesky things like wages and short work days. He writes:

The increase of the productive force of labour and the greatest possible negation of necessary labour is the necessary tendency of capital, as we have seen. The transformation of the means of labour into machinery is the realization of this tendency.

Seen through this lens, robot workers are the rational end point of automation as it develops in a capitalist economy. The question of what happens to workers displaced by automation is an especially interesting line of inquiry because it points to a serious contradiction in capitalism, according to Marx:

Capital itself is the moving contradiction, [in] that it presses to reduce labour time to a minimum, while it posits labour time, on the other side, as sole measure and source of wealth.

In Marxist theory, capitalists create profit by extracting what's called surplus value from workers—paying them less than what their time is worth and gaining the difference as profit after the commodity has been sold at market price, arrived at by metrics abstracted from the act of labour itself.

This is what I tagged "Technology at its best!

Even MAN Motors has made a bus that can moves inside the river as well as on the road. When I watched the documentary, I was amazed how such can be made.

Fifth or Sixth Generation Computers in vogue.

This call for a big challenge on our dear African leaders. Let us be innovative positively instead of looting and dependable on other developed countries.

God heal Africa.

Lol..i swear if they bring it for nigeria,even if them they board for free i no fit enter it o because nigeria environment no resemble the one at abroad...who wan die?

In 2007, i met a German who was part of the team working on this technology at Conti Temic office in Markdorf. His reply when I asked him about the possibility of such advanced technology was " nothing is impossible ".

Although, I don't know if other German companies including Mercedes Benz were working on the same 'technik' as they call it there; or whether Conti Temic sold the idea to MB.

It will get to Nigeria in the next generation, MY generation no fit see this kin tin..

Nice one..... but this is never meant for Nigeria

The interior of the bus looks more like that of an airport shuttle
