The National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) through the Engineering Science Research Organization (OR IPT) is currently developing an electric car. The vehicle is formulated in the city of Bandung.
The Acting Head of the Center for Electric Power and Mechatronics who is also the Coordinator of PRN for Electric Vehicles, Haznan Abimanyu, said the development of the vehicle started with President Jokowi's statement that all modes of transportation in Indonesia must be environmentally friendly. This vehicle is predicted to be a vehicle in the State Capital (IKN).
"For the concept, we want to help realize Pak Jokowi's wish, which proclaimed that in the new capital city there will be no smoke. Until we develop this autonomous electric vehicle," Haznan said when interviewed at BRIN Multisatker Region, Bandung City, Wednesday (16/2). /2022).
1. Remotely Drive

This autonomous or driverless electric car is called MeVI-TDS (Micro Electric Vehicle-Teleoperated Driving System).
This vehicle is driven remotely.
By design, the MEVi - TDS is equipped with 4 LED lights at the front, oval-shaped brake lights at the rear, and 6 LED lights forming a triangle as turn signals.
At the top of the hood, a rotator lamp is added which will light up as an alarm in the event of a malfunction of the teleoperation.
2. Developed Since 2021

The autonomous electric vehicle has been under development since 2021 with the combined resources of researchers.
For now, the electric vehicle is still a prototype with one passenger.
In addition to being proclaimed to be transportation at IKN, this electric vehicle is also being developed to be transportation in certain areas such as airports and hospitals.
However, this vehicle does not allow it to be used on the highway.
3. Speed and Power

MEVi-TDS itself has dimensions of 1,475 mm in length, 990 mm in width and 1,470 mm in height with a weight of about 80 kg accompanied by 8-inch alloy wheels.
This autonomous electric vehicle is also equipped with a 48 Volt 12 Ah lithium ion battery.
Because it uses a 12 Ah battery, this car can only be used for a maximum of 46 minutes with a maximum speed of 10.88 km per hour. MeVi-TSD is also known to use a 750 Watt BLDC (brushless dc) motor with 1 HP power, 2.36 Nm of torque which is capable of lifting loads up to 600 Kg.
4. Ultrasonic Sensor

This motorbike is equipped with 6 ultrasonic sensors as proximity sensors, IMU sensors to determine the orientation of the vehicle, GPS to determine the exact position and 4 cameras that function as vision.
The control center as a data processor in MEVi-TDS uses Nvidia Jetson AGX Xavier which will communicate with workstations at the command station using a WiFi AC network. (bba/bbn)
