The survey shows that there is significant interest in driverless ride-hail services based on a number of factors including safety, customization, and comfort.

Motional has chosen Los Angeles as the second market for our robotaxi service. Akshay Jaising, our VP of Commercialization, explains why.  

The suite of sensors on a Motional robotaxi helps the vehicle "see" what's happening around it better than a human driver

For the first time ever, a robotaxi will be on display at the LA Auto Show. Visit Motional's exhibit in the South Hall Atrium. 

Motional is making its Autonomous Vehicle Cybersecurity Development Lifecycle (AVCDL) publicly available for others to review and adopt, in order to help the industry secure against cybersecurity threats. 

AVs are programmed to follow driving rules and won't double-park or block driveways. Cities could help robotaxis thrive by designating curbside spaces for passenger and package pickups and dropoffs. 

Motional teamed up with BU researchers to test a wearable navigational assistance device that can help improve accessibility for blind ride-hail passengers.

Motional's CEO explains how the company will use its resources to create positive change across a wide variety of causes impacting road safety in urban areas.

Motional engineers and product designers are creating an AV capable of serving dual purposes without losing functionality for either.

Chapter 3 of Motional's DriverlessEd series explains how AV companies like Motional are using research to understand what makes a ride comfortable, the types of features passengers expect, ways to make the vehicles accessible, and even how AVs can communicate with people.

Motional researchers are developing an app-based feature that lets riders with disabilities ask their robotaxi for more time while being picked up.

Motional is learning how to measure whether a ride in a driverless vehicle feels safe, comfortable, or both.

Motional uses multi-modal prediction models to more accurately predict and anticipate what agents around our AVs are going to do next.

Motional is using AI to sift through mountains of vehicle data to find the unique driving scenarios needed to make AV tech smarter.
