Kodiak Robotics launched an advisory council to bolster its efforts to commercialize autonomous trucks with the help of trucking industry leaders, the company announced March 27.
The Kodiak Industry Advisory Council will focus on product development, deployment and public engagement related to commercializing autonomous trucks. The Arkansas Trucking Association, Loadsmith, Walmart, Werner Enterprises and UPS are among the inaugural members.
“Kodiak’s Industry Advisory Council was designed to bring a variety of additional perspectives, including those of fleets, regulators and trucking industry groups, to determine how we can best scale our technology in the coming years,” Michael Wiesinger, vice president of commercialization at Kodiak, told Transport Topics. “The Industry Advisory Council will help us shape our approach as we work to integrate our autonomous trucking technology into fleets’ existing operations and ensure we solve our customers’ biggest pain points.”
