Abstract : The increasing urbanization of cities has resulted in challenges such as traffic congestion, air pollution, high fuel consumption, and inefficient trans- portation systems. Collaborative Autonomous Rideshare is a blockchain-based decentralized platform designed to address these issues by promoting efficient ridesharing through autonomous vehicle coordination. This platform connects passengers traveling along similar routes, allow- ing them to share rides in an organized and cost- effective manner. The application leverages smart contracts to enable secure, automatic, and tamper-proof ride agreements be- tween users, eliminating intermediaries while ensuring privacy and trust. The system optimizes vehicle capacity, reduces the number of vehicles on the road, and lowers emissions, contributing to a cleaner and greener environ- ment. By utilizing decentralized technology, the platform en- sures transparency in transactions and user data protec- tion. Autonomous vehicles are coordinated through algo- rithms that analyze routes and passenger needs, ensuring timely and efficient services. This innovation aims to revolutionize urban mobility by creating a smarter, moreconnected, and sustainable transportation ecosystem.
