A complete ecosystem for the next generation of autonomous vehicles

Based on the WSJ (Wall Street Journal) report, it is predicted that the commercial drones will hit the streets of US during this summer. Because many countries have already started using the commercial drones for delivery. Have you ever heard of a place named Reykjavik? It is the capital of Iceland. Because of the city’s landscape, online food deliveries took more than 30 minutes to reach the customers. Now, things have changed after the launch of drone delivery service by a company named Flytrex. Using drones, Flytrex has reduced the delivery time drastically from 30 minutes to 5 minutes. Are you wondering how? Because the distance between two points is greatly reduced when you are traveling in the air instead of roads. So, commercial drones have already started changing the way how things are delivered at your doorsteps.

Will drones deliver only goods? Not passengers? For that, you need to use an autonomous or driverless vehicle. Many companies like Tesla, Uber, Google have already started developing and testing their driverless cars on roads. Some people may think that riding in a driverless car is not safe for them. It is a wrong illusion. Based on the study by the Eno Centre for Transportation, it is estimated that the number of deaths due to road accidents in the US will reduce by more than half by using autonomous vehicles. This clearly shows that using driverless cars on the roads are safer than the existing driver-based cars.

As the technology advances, you need to adapt to it quickly because early adopters will always get more benefits. For that, a new blockchain based transportation platform named DAV is under development. DAV (Decentralized Autonomous Vehicles) aims to build a complete ecosystem for the autonomous vehicles by helping them to communicate and transact with each other. Let me explain you with a simple example. John forgot to send an important document to his client who is located 50 miles away from his home. It is impossible to deliver the document himself because he had to attend a high-level meeting in his office. How to find a solution to this problem? After reaching his office, he can use the DAV app to book an autonomous vehicle for sending that document by picking it up from his office. Sounds simple? That’s the objective of the DAV platform. “Send anything, anywhere easily in minutes.” To learn more information about the decentralized platform, check out their official whitepaper https://dav.network/whitepaper.pdf .

Not, only the DAV platform provides benefits to the users, but also to another kind of players like insurance companies, vehicle manufacturers, auto repair service providers, etc. For that, the company is introducing a new type of utility tokens called DAV tokens which is based on the Ethereum standard ERC20. DAV tokens will be used as the primary method of payment to get all kind of services using this platform. If someone likes to earn some DAV tokens, they can do that easily by renting their vehicles or providing another kind of transportation services.
