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.
