…world already,” says Ivannikov. “Driverless shuttles are being tested in medical facilities, on huge campuses, at airports, for last-mile deliveries and for other purposes and places. The demand for the autonomous shuttles is constantly high, so we are about to see ecosystems emerge and regulations change around the globe. New human-machine interfaces are expected to emerge as well. There are…
