Research news on Autonomous mobility services

Autonomous mobility services encompass the deployment and operation of self-driving ground and air vehicles for passenger and goods transport, including robotaxis, autonomous shuttles, delivery robots, and electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) air taxis. Work in this area addresses large-scale fleet deployment, safety performance, human oversight, and integration with existing ride-hailing and public transport systems, alongside evolving legal, liability, and data-sharing frameworks that govern automated driving functions from Level 2 driver assistance to fully driverless operation.
