The GR, CR and AR may be used with ABD??s existing Steering and Brake robots to provide a fully driverless testing system for manual transmission vehicles. In this instance, all robots are controlled with an ABD Omni(6) six-channel controller and an additional back-up safety system is employed to provide a fail-safe means of stopping the vehicle.
