Urbanaut ® and SemiMaglev Urbanaut® are registered international trade names of the Urbanaut ® Company Inc, which has been involved in all aspects of monorail technology for more than 15 years. It is one of the most experienced monorail firms, specializing exclusively in planning, design, research, studies, testing, manufacturing, construction and... operation of the Urbanaut ®, a new innovative electrically operated monorail technology applying conventional rubber tire wheel bogies and SemiMaglev Urbanaut®technology. The basic principle applies a 1.1 meter narrow guide way, with a center guide and stabilizer rail, which also serves as a simple switching device. Intermediate size vehicles are lightweight: 2.35 m. wide and 3.2 m high. The concept has wide practical application as low cost conventional and high speed systems, and has the potential of moving large numbers of people to relieve traffic congestion along freeways, on crowded city streets, in urban settings and in recreation areas. The technology has been easily adapted to different types of propulsion for rubber tires and semi maglev technology. Urbanaut® is the only monorail system where smaller vehicles operating on a smaller guide way (a circulator) can be integrated with and switched onto a larger high capacity guide way, allowing a fleet of vehicles to be transferred for specific purposes, such as during rush hours, and for large public gatherings and sporting events. Studies indicate that a median to high speed Urbanaut ® backbone system is technically and economically feasible for placement in the median of many of our freeways. This medium to high speed Urbanaut ®, depending on distances between stops, can have the potential capacity of an 8 lane freeway at considerable less cost with no pollution and noise, and little or no environmental impact. Such a medium to high speed trunk line system can be integrated with transfers to independent Urbanaut ® monorail guide ways into cities, airports, recreation areas, and high density communities.
