Description (French)
Projet de développement logiciel et de démonstration visant à améliorer une plateforme d’optimisation des itinéraires qui planifie et optimise les itinéraires de livraison, suit la progression des livraisons et automatise les notifications aux clients avec l’heure d’arrivée estimée. Des algorithmes améliorés permettront de réduire le temps passé sur la route et la consommation de carburant d’au moins 20 % pour les camions de livraison grâce à une efficacité accrue des itinéraires et à l’application de technologies d’IA.
Expected Results
The NRC-IRAP Clean Technology Program will support Canadian SMEs in the research and development of sustainable development technologies, up to their commercialization, with the potential to deliver economic and environmental outcomes.
Expected Results (French)
Le Programme Technologies propres du PARI-CNRC appuiera les PME canadiennes dans la recherche et le développement de technologies du développement durable, jusqu’à leur commercialisation, susceptibles de produire des résultats économiques et environnementaux.
