N2  - People’s (and goods’) transport will fundamentally change due to autonomous driving and emission-reduced drives. This enables new mobility concepts, especially for inner-city transport of people. An example for such autonomous vehicles are so-called people-movers: small electrically powered busses carrying up to 15 passengers from individual departure points to individual destinations. Next to the research regarding autonomous driving and alternative types of drives, it is also necessary to study and research how future users are willing to use new types of inner-city transport. Such transport needs specific information platforms organizing the trips and routing the people mover. Those platforms do not yet exist.
As part of our research, we developed an exemplary people-mover platform architecture. We were using methods from agile software development to gather customer requirements, as well as an information logistics concept as a validated link between user requirements and the architecture. We designed the architecture using microservices to enable growth and adaptability at the same time. As the research is still going on, these characteristics are necessary in order to keep building a customer-focused platform for the inner-city mobility of the future.
