Eric Surma's Company Details

Locomation was founded in 2018 by a team of the world's foremost experts on autonomous vehicles, robotics, and artificial intelligence from Carnegie Mellon's National Robotics Engineering Center and trucking industry leaders with deep knowledge and experience in every aspect of the trucking business.We are motivated by the challenge of solving problems that have hindered the trucking industry for decades. Trucks transport more than 70% of the nation's freight. E-commerce has sharply increased the need for freight trucking services. Demand is expected to grow 36% between 2020 and 2031.1 At a time when demand has never been stronger, persistent driver shortages create capacity constraints that force carriers to turn down orders.
