KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Recent HNTB Corporation Viewpoint, or article, titled “Transportation technologies accelerate urban redesign and enhanced mobility,” discusses the future impacts of connected and autonomous vehicles on urban design and mobility. The Viewpoint includes thoughts about a concept called “nomadization”. The idea of nomadization may one day mean that people live in autonomous modules on wheels, turning upside down our concept of housing.
According to the author Jim Barbaresso, HNTB national intelligent transportation systems practice leader and senior vice president, in a press release: "If autonomous vehicles eventually become one of the primary modes of transport, people may be able to work, eat and sleep while occupying their vehicles, or even live on the road as futuristic nomads. Houses may be substituted for autonomous modules on wheels, turning upside down our concept of normal residential life in cities nationwide."
