By CARSIFU | 9 August 2022


SINGAPORE: Driverless software company MooVita today signed a strategic partnership with China's tier-1 auto parts supplier, Desay SV (DSV), to further drive a safer, more efficient, and carbon-neutral mode of transportation.

MooVita and DSV will jointly work on the development of AV Level-3 to Level 4+ full-stack software application residing in DSV's firmware. This will enable vehicles to operate autonomously without much human intervention for urban driving conditions. The first application would be in "smart buses".

The deployment of such autonomous driving core technologies is expected to be rolled out in the first half of 2023.

Both companies intend to develop the technology further to create Level 4 autonomous buses, starting with Singapore, Malaysia and China.

Founded 2016, Singapore-based MooVita is a tech provider of smart mobility solutions for urban environments. With offices in Singapore, Malaysia, and India, the startup offers vehicle-agnostic, driverless software capabilities for applications such as first and last-mile transportation, logistics transportation, and utility solutions.

MooVita said its solutions can be deployed across multiple industries such as hospitality service providers (hotels and resorts), industrial parks, commercial offices, and residential estates.
