In complying with AV regulations in various U.S. states, including the Florida statute 316.85 (5), a Remote Monitor and Control Center (RMCC) solution provides a safety mechanism that allows any AV to be monitored and controlled by a remote operator to resolve unforeseen situations such as deadlock, navigation errors, passengers’ misbehavior, or any incident.
The RMCC platform provides a low-cost alternative to human safety drivers in autonomous vehicles/shuttles and satisfies the legal requirement for backup and remote human monitoring, which is a barrier to entry for operators in a growing number of states.
