DAV Network - Decentralized platform for unmanned transport

Modern technologies of computer vision and neural networks nowadays allows to create real magic. If just a few years ago, unmanned vehicles required clear marking and compliance with traffic rules by all participants in the movement, today for example Yandex is already testing unmanned vehicles in Moscow, and they feel good on the roads, despite the regular lack of marking and the presence of aggressive drivers.

If in Russia robomobile is only being tested in the US unmanned taxi from Uber already carrying real customers. Google is developing its own cars without drivers, and several companies are engaged in this sphere.

But, unfortunately, everyone is developing for themselves, without sharing technologies with other market participants. This can be explained by the laws of business, but if robomobile was created together, their services would already be available in almost all countries of the world. Instead the engineers of each company solve the same problems over and over again, significantly delaying the future development of autonomous transportation.

The creators of DAV Network offer to use modern technology of decentralization - blockchain, to ensure the operation of unmanned vehicles.

The DAV Network platform includes an open protocol for vehicle interaction. In addition to the regular communication on the roads, the protocol will allow cars to communicate with infrastructure elements. A real autonomous car should be autonomous in everything. Imagine a world where gas and charging stations, parking lots and garages, repair shops and car washes do not need live workers. Robomobile taxi agrees with a petrol station itself, car arrives in the workshop where the robots will be able to replace the tyre. And when the car has no customers, it asks the nearest parking, finds a free one and waits for a new order.

Such a system, together with the infrastructure, could be affordable only to a large company like Google, but try to imagine how much it will cost and how long it will take to build such an ecosystem.

But DAV Network offers a decentralized approach - anyone can organize a parking space for robotaxi even at home. There is no need to build the infrastructure centrally, it is enough to develop open software and hardware standards and allow anyone to organize their infrastructure node.

Thus, the "bright future" can be built together. Someone will buy and start robomobile, someone will build a parking lot for it, someone charging, etc.

Naturally, the scheme will not work on enthusiasm, so the nodes pay for each other's services. And in order to build a decentralized financial system, the platform is based on blockchain.

It is logical to transfer client orders to the blockchain too, and for passenger transportation issue a smart contract. So now the model of work of an unmanned taxi is emerging, where the car carries passengers all day, earning money, and in the evening spends part of what is earned for refueling, washing and parking.

It might seem that the platform is only focused on taxis, but it is not. The scheme of work is suitable for drones which deliver the good, and could be charged at private charging stations installed on the roofs of houses, as well as for water transport. Yes, even private helicopters will be able to work on the described scheme.

Platform will use DAV tokens as payment method. DAV tokens are being sold with a discount on the project portal - https://dav.network/

Conclusion

The described "bright future" will not come tomorrow, but existing technologies already allow to create similar. The main thing is to implement an open platform and standards, the rest will “grow” itself over time. The history of the Internet and decentralized technologies confirms this. When unmanned vehicles become available to everyone, and sooner or later this will happen, the DAV Network platform will be already able to work with them. And further - a matter of technology.
