Mobility and Transportation

Autonomous, intelligent agents and driverless delivery will reshape homes, work, and mobility.

Analyses and Insights

Domestic Robots and Digital People

What’s in the pipeline for help at home, with both manual and emotional labor? These startups and applications are moving in

New Urban Nomads

As the world finds a new post-covid normal, how will telepresence and remote work affect housing, workspace, and technological (un)employment?

Closed-loop Food Systems

If food is grown and recycled where it’s consumed, cities can effectively expand without limit. New technologies from sustainability and space are arriving now

Modeling Nested Logistics

When vehicles can ride in other vehicles, completely new logistical models emerge. Route optimization, fuel forecasting, logistics hubs and more must (p)react

Autonomy’s Impact on Urban Economies

Cities are where autonomous commerce is happening first, accelerated by covid and recovery. How will traffic flows, housing, offices, and shopping centers reform?

The Vehicle Mix to 2030

From self-driving buses to flying taxis and sidewalk robots, a menagerie of new mobility alternatives is emerging for people and packages
