Top left, the rest are magnetic rails under the red line

magnetic rails

If it's not steel on steel it's not a tram.

Ok that's awesome. I didn't know something like that existed.

So, the tram has tyres? Like a bus?
Or is it maglev, which would be nice?

[-] lud@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

It probably just uses the magnetic "rail" to guide it on the road.

SoI I'm guessing it could be replaced by a 5$ GPS reciever

or like, the same fucking wires used for robot mowers

the magnets don't directly move the vehicle, the field it generates is just measured by the sensor on the car to be able to get reliably accurate position data iirc

gps definitely can't provide that level of accuracy reliably
