""Trucks were never designed to be autonomous. Removing the cab allows us to rethink the whole vehicle for an autonomous future.""
""Eliminating the cab opens up 360-degree sensor coverage across cameras, LiDAR, and radar, and frees payload capacity.""
""Humble built its first prototype in roughly six months. Cohen's background lends credibility to that timeline: He helped build Otto, the company that completed the first autonomous freight delivery by semi-truck in 2016.""
Humble, a San Francisco startup, has introduced the Humble Hauler, an electric autonomous freight vehicle designed for shipping containers. The vehicle eliminates the traditional cab, allowing for enhanced sensor coverage and increased payload capacity. Unlike other companies, Humble focuses on dock-to-dock unloading rather than hub-to-hub models. CEO Eyal Cohen emphasizes the need to rethink vehicle design for autonomy. The prototype was developed in six months, leveraging Cohen's experience in autonomous freight delivery and a team with backgrounds from major tech companies.
