The Autonomy Kit for any Vehicle

Autonomy isn’t easy, but we make it look that way with a kit that works on any vehicle you need to solve your mobility problems. With over 17 years and 200 person-years of experience, 40,000 AV miles travelled, and over 30 different vehicles powered by our software, we know what it takes to successfully control a vehicle. We’ve built this science and expertise into our TONY retrofit kit, a vehicle agnostic approach to autonomous transit. Whether you need a transit van, bus, car, shuttle, truck, or custom vehicle, our TONY retrofit kit can adapt, as we’ve proven time and again.

TONY Components

Our TONY retrofit kit includes both Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) hardware and our patented software and kit solution. Core components include:

• MAX: Our patented & proven full-stack autonomous software platform. Vehicle, sensor, controls, and communications protocol agnostic. Performs sensor data ingestion and perception, sensor fusion, AI-driven maneuver selection, path planning, and control messaging.

• Sensors: COTS LiDAR, RADAR, camera, GPS, ultrasonic, and other sensors configured for the operational domain.

• Controls: Our Bolt-in Autonomy Kit (BAK) or Drive-By-Wire adapters for steering, brake, throttle, and shift controls.

• E-Box: Our flexible and modular packaging of COTS computers, communication adapters, and other electronics for onboard autonomous controls.

• Watchdog: Our patented safety and security watchdog platform that independently monitors, verifies, and validates the autonomous system.

Autonomous Strength

Perrone Robotics been developing autonomous vehicle solutions since 2003. With a history of more than 200 person-years of development, over 40,000 autonomous miles traveled, and over 30 different vehicles automated, our TONY platform has a rich set of autonomous capability and proven reliability. TONY vehicles come equipped with sophisticated pedestrian and vehicle avoidance and interaction maneuvers, seamlessly navigate intersections and roundabouts, operate in degraded weather conditions, and can be configured to do practically any task requiring a driver. Plus, having spent our formative years in the automotive autonomy space, you won’t be limited to 12 mph of operation. Learn more about our levels of autonomy and configuration options.
