The autonomous trucking sector is entering one of its most dynamic phases yet. After a decade of scattered pilots, cautious investment, and shifting timelines, the industry is now edging closer to real commercial deployment.
Several factors are converging at once: persistent driver shortages across the freight industry, rising pressure to improve efficiency on long-haul routes, and increasingly mature technology stacks capable of handling high-speed, highway-level autonomy.
Unlike robotaxis – which must navigate dense urban environments filled with unpredictable human behaviour – autonomous trucks benefit from a more structured operational domain. [Read more…] about Interview with CEO of autonomous truck tech developer Arbe Robotics: ‘There’s no other radar like ours’
