After more than a decade of research and development since famous Silicon Valley companies got engaged in automated road transportation, the field seems at a crossroads: The technology options are on the table. And, numerous demonstrations and pilot projects have been running all around the globe, showcasing the opportunities of automated mobility for a multitude of applications: highway trucks, urban goods delivery, shared passenger shuttles, and individual robotaxi and for extending the range of public transport over the last mile. Yet, to turn these prospects into marketable products and service offerings, some fundamental technical choices have to be made, e.g. whether the decision-making capabilities will be located at the edge of a car’s electronic control systems, or whether these require some kind of greater intelligence in the cloud, or maybe a mixture of both. Which way to choose is less a question of right or wrong, but merely of the desired level, coverage and reliability of the automated function, as expressed in the Operational Design Domain. And, it will have tremendous impact on the requirements for the vehicle’s electronic and software control architecture, the bandwidth and latency of the data communication with the digital infrastructure and the quality of the decision-making process. Hence, the lessons learned from pilots and demonstrations on societal needs, market relevance, legal feasibility, user expectations, and yes, also technology maturity are essential to co-create the relevant technology paths. Not least in view of the disruptions of worldwide supply chains, most notably for raw materials sourcing and semiconductor chip making, it is of high strategic importance for the technological sovereignty to keep and reach these decisions wisely, timely, and in a coordinated way. Otherwise, automated road transportation may even risk to fail due to inconsistencies between projected opportunities and imminent challenges, or be available only at the cost of painful compromises in terms of the democratic values of safety, equitable access, and data privacy. The comprehensive and worldwide dialogue among all players of the automated road transportation ecosystem including technologists, planners, operators, legislators, and last but not least citizens, therefore, is as important as never before.
