PETERSBORO, Utah , Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Autonomous Solutions, Inc. (ASI), a global leader in large fleet autonomy, today announced the transition of its Automotive team from OEM proving ground automation to supporting ASI's agriculture, construction, landscaping, and logistics product lines. Capital from the recent divestiture of ASI Mining is enabling a step change in customer deployments, and the automotive team's skill set of simulation, test automation, and tool development is ideally suited to help.
For many years, ASI has supported the world's leading automotive OEMs—including Ford, Chrysler, GM, and Toyota—in automating their proving grounds for testing vehicle durability and the robustness of advancing levels of driver assistance autonomy.

"With the sale of ASI Mining, we can now focus on accelerating the deployments of this large fleet optimization autonomy into our other markets," said Mel Torrie, CEO of ASI. "Leveraging the tools and expertise we developed for the leading OEMs will maximize our ability to scale to help with our customers' severe labor shortages."
The company is working closely with its automotive customers to ensure a smooth transition, including the completion of final unit sales and ongoing support.
