What is the SandBox Law?
What is the SandBox Law?
Law 6491, known as the "SandBox Law," was introduced by the Executive Branch of the GCBA through the Secretariat of Innovation. It regulates a controlled testing environment designed to facilitate the implementation of technological innovation projects. In this context, the Parque de Innovación de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires will serve as this controlled space, allowing research protocols to be conducted. The goal is to enable future extension of these innovations to other areas of the City or the country.

SMART MOBILITY
SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY
What is an autonomous vehicle and how does it work?
An autonomous vehicle is a self-operating machine that utilizes advanced autonomous driving technologies to function without human intervention. Equipped with sensors, cameras, radars, navigation systems, and sophisticated software, these vehicles can perceive their surroundings, make real-time decisions, and navigate safely along predetermined or programmed routes.
Are there any success stories in the world?
Yes, just to mention a few, the French-Japanese company GMM (Gaussin Macnica Mobility) before being present on Argentine soil, supplied autonomous buses to the United States, France, Switzerland, Singapore, Japan, United Arab Emirates, among many others. Although Chile has made a test financed by the IDB in 2020, Argentina is the first country in Latin America to have a vehicle that operates without a driver on a permanent basis, which makes us pioneers in this area at regional level.
What are the technical characteristics of the Bus at PI?
The bus is an electric vehicle with the following dimensions: 4.78 meters in length, 2.10 meters in width, and 2.67 meters in height. Weighing 2,600 kg, it is navigated using GNSS technology, which surpasses GPS in accuracy. This system, combined with satellite georeferencing and LIDAR, enables precise location tracking using a detailed 3D map of the area. The bus's battery requires 4 to 5 hours to fully charge at 32 kW and 10 hours at 16 kW, and it offers a driving range of up to 65 km.
How many people can get on?
Up to 15 people can be on board (11 seated and 4 standing).
Is it suitable for people with reduced mobility?
That's right! It has a ramp and space for a wheelchair to enter.
What is the relationship with ITBA in the project?
This pilot research project on intelligent and sustainable urban mobility is conducted in collaboration with ITBA (Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires). The role of the PI is to support this project and other initiatives that foster technological and scientific innovation. The aim is to test these innovations and, following successful trials, scale them up for broader implementation, extending from Buenos Aires to the rest of Argentina.
