Green Bus * USA - Cisco's rides the hills of San Francisco
San Francisco,CA,USA -Cisconet/NetworkWorld.com Community - 27 Feb 2008: -- Cisco last week unveiled its Connected Bus developed with the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency for its Muni bus service. The bus offers touch screens that provide real-time NextMuni information and wait times, free wireless, and external LEDs to tell motorists and pedestrians about the environmental benefits of the bus. In the future, the bus will sport technology to reduce vehicle collisions, traffic signal priority to help drivers avoid congestion, onboard video and audio entertainment for passengers, a "Find It" service to locate nearby points of interest and operator services to assist bus drivers and maintenance staff. (Watch a video of the bus in action here -we're waiting for a version of the video showing the bus doing a Bullit-style ride along the hills of SF-)
