The point is that the motorway “Tokyo Kosoku Doro (commonly known as KK Line)”, which is currently running on the Chiyoda-ku side of Ginza, will be opened for pedestrians for two days, and events will be held, so please take a look Do you not try, why not walk? It's an event.

The KK Line is scheduled to be abolished as an expressway, so the event before that is the "Ginza Skywalk" with a view to the future as a pedestrian passage.

In addition, it is said that the timing of completion of maintenance is planned from the 2030s to the 2040s.

The entrance to the refurbished model area and event venue rose from the Naka-Yuuraku Building Slope beside Tokyo Kotsu Kaikan on the Chiyoda-ku side at Exit 2 of Ginza 1-chome Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line.

There was a "reception" ahead of that, and I checked and signed the consent form.

At the reception, we were given a "arm seal" indicating the visitors and set it.

Although it was almost windless on this day, the staff instructed me to close the parasol that could be skipped for safety.

At the time of admission to Rosmari, on stage, "What is Tokyo Sky Corridor (Tokyo Sky Corridor) aiming to become a tourist base attracting attention from the world?" It was about to start.

It's the performers.

First, Yuriko Koike gave a speech,...

After that, the Governor of Tokyo was retired and had a talk session with the moderator.

After that, the stage seems to have shifted to the art section, such as music performance of the brass band at Yasuaki Elementary School in Chuo Ward, wadaiko performance at wadaiko DUO Teruhi, and Sand Art & Pianola Eve at TSUKINOKAGE.

(Due to the time of stay, Rosmari could not actually be viewed.)

Toyota offers a variety of options to realize a better mobility society where everyone can move freely.

In the C+walk series, a three-wheeled BEV (battery electric vehicle, that is, an engine, is not equipped with an internal combustion engine) that is easy to get on and off, and is easy to operate, and it pursues high affinity between walking spaces, such as being able to talk side by side with pedestrians around you by moving at the speed of walking.

As a result, we have proposed new value that supports the life stage as a mobility that expands the range of activities of users and makes them smile.

In the image above, on the right customer test drive, the staff on the left walks side to ensure safety.

Rosmari also wrote the documents and took a test drive.

We prepared a standing-type C+walk T and a sitting-type C+walk s.

I did a stand-up type test drive, the same as the image above.

I went to the test drive almost without waiting. In front of Rosmari, I was a female reporter from a certain TV station.

The staff involved in Rosmari is Yuki Hagiwara, head of the ZEV B & D Lab Regional Product Strategy Group, Toyota Motor Corporation.

Press the button at the right thumb to proceed, and when you release it, it slows down and stops, there is a brake, but it can be stopped almost without using it, and started with a slow walking speed of 4 km / h.

I get used to it a little in the first straight line, turn the steering wheel with a curve, and then speed up to 6 km / h (highest speed) at the same speed as fast walking.

I made a total of 4 laps.

If there is an obstacle ahead, the sensor detects it and sounds a warning sound.

According to Mr. Hagiwara, it is about 370,000 yen (equipped with optional equipment).

I felt it was very easy to ride and safe mobility.

This is an autonomous driving system led by Kurume Institute of Technology.

In the image above, the test drive customer is moving left while sitting.

Although it is out of the image, there are several staff behind the scenes to confirm safe driving.

The main system for autonomous driving is the system.

[Outdoor] Self-position recognition with GPS-RTK

[Indoor] Self-position recognition by LiDAR

And the main collision prevention system is the

[Sensor] Infrared Camera, Sonar, 2D-Li DAR

[button] Emergency stop button before and after the vehicle

In addition, safety measures, etc.

Prevent passengers from falling with handrails

Override with a large wheel (about 5cm)

I think it's a good thing.

"Mobility that snuggles up to people's thoughts."
