Autonomous vehicle integration requires platform infrastructure that doesn’t assume human drivers: remote control APIs abstracted from hardware, real-time vehicle state monitoring, on-demand telemetry refresh, and maintenance workflows for unattended operations. Operators planning AV deployments need foundational control and monitoring capabilities ready for integration, not vaporware promises.
The base platform provides foundational infrastructure AV operators need. Remote control commands route through hardware abstraction layer: platform issues open/close/immobilizer commands, registered AV system receives via standard interface. Vehicle state monitoring surfaces telemetry without assuming driver presence. Maintenance workflow supports unattended intervention: create request, assign to human responder, track resolution. Architecture ready for operator-deployed AV systems without platform lock-in or custom development.
A mobility operator plans phased AV deployment: Phase 1 (current) operates a human-driven fleet with remote unlock/lock, Phase 2 (pilot) introduces 5 autonomous vehicles with a custom AV control system. Operator registers AV control system as hardware manager type in platform, configures connection parameters, maps AV API to platform’s open/close/immobilizer commands. The platform treats AV vehicles identically to human-driven: same booking flow, same monitoring, same maintenance workflow. When an AV vehicle requires intervention (battery swap, cleaning, sensor calibration), operator creates maintenance request, assigns to human responder, tracks completion. No platform migration between phases—infrastructure ready from day one.
