automobilius
Automobilius is a hypothetical standard platform for modular autonomous road vehicles, designed to unify hardware interfaces, software stacks, and safety protocols across manufacturers. It envisions a family of vehicles including passenger cars, delivery vehicles, and shuttles, with emphasis on interoperability, modularity, and scalable architectures.
Etymology and conceptually, automobilius combines Latin roots auto- (self) and mobilis (movable), with a suffix that
Design and technology are centered on a layered approach: a hardware abstraction layer that decouples sensors
History and development are speculative, with discussions appearing in mid-2020s academic papers and industry consortiums proposing
Applications include urban mobility fleets, last-mile delivery, and automated public transit shuttles. Automobilius aims to reduce
