Urban Mobility

Uber is acquiring parking reservation platform SpotHero to integrate parking solutions directly into its app. This move aims to simplify urban mobility by addressing the often-difficult task of finding parking, especially in busy areas. The integration seeks to enhance the experience for drivers using Uber and broaden the platform’s utility beyond just transportation and delivery services, further solidifying Uber’s position in the urban logistics market.

DENSO and AT&T are partnering to advance urban mobility with customizable services leveraging AT&T’s hardware and software. The collaboration focuses on improving road safety and optimizing driving experiences. DENSO’s MobiQ V2X OBU will support a hybrid communication model utilizing AT&T’s network and 5.9 GHz C-V2X technology. AT&T is currently testing these technologies to establish a national transportation platform, integrating localized services and city infrastructure to enhance safety and public transportation.
