Michigan Central is Ford's 30-acre innovation district in Detroit's Corktown neighborhood, with modern workspaces, maker labs, high-tech connected infrastructure, and a dedicated testing environment for urban transportation technology. Ford's own site states the campus exists for innovators and disruptors from around the world to develop, test, and launch new mobility solutions, and lists a direct contact for parties who want to engage. Ford has separately used the district as a base for its own autonomous-vehicle and smart-infrastructure pilots, including autonomous shuttles running in the surrounding neighborhood.
