Abstract

Autonomous vehicles (AV) are seen as the ultimate innovation and efficiency driver in logistics. Though the operation of driverless trucks, drones, and delivery robots appears still quite futuristic, both the technology and applications advance rapidly. This paper describes the status quo, outlines the advantages of AV operations and illustrates the underlying technologies. In addition, it highlights the most promising use cases and applications and lists the startups and technology companies working on the next revolution. The work concludes with 10 hypotheses about how the development of AV will most likely evolve, how the market will be impacted, and how current business models will be disrupted.
