Enhancing Campus Mobility: Achievements and Challenges of the Snow Lion Autonomous Shuttle

In recent years, the rapid evolution of autonomous vehicles (AVs) has reshaped global transportation systems, leading to an increase in autonomous shuttle applications in people’s daily lives. Leveraging the accomplishments of our earlier endeavor, particularly Hercules (Liu et al., 2021), an autonomous logistics vehicle for transporting goods, we introduce Snow Lion, an autonomous shuttle vehicle specifically designed to transform on-campus transportation, providing a safe and efficient mobility solution for students, faculty, and visitors.
