Yamaha (Iwata) — Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. announced today that the company will commence services from November 1, 2019 using the SC-1 entertainment vehicle – sociable cart jointly developed with the Sony Corporation.
The first services will start at the Kanucha Bay Resort (Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture) and at the Southeast Botanical Gardens (Okinawa City, Okinawa Prefecture).
Doing so creates an entertainment space unmatched by any traditional vehicle, aiming to provide a more enjoyable low-speed mobility value to occupants and people nearby.
With the autonomous driving function, passengers can enjoy entertainment content created by mixed reality technology based on night driving scenes projected by ultra-sensitive image sensors and high-resolution displays without having to control the vehicle.
In the future, both companies will expand similar services to amusement and/or commercial facilities in order to provide new mobile experiences to customers.
