Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a modular autonomous-vehicle interior. In particular, an autonomous vehicle can comprise an interior comprising a plurality of different and distinct regions. Each of the regions can comprise one or more mechanical interfaces associated therewith. The autonomous vehicle can also include, for each of one or more of the regions, at least one modular interior unit comprising an interior element and a base mechanically interfaced with the interior via the mechanical interface(s) associated with the region.
Claims20
An autonomous vehicle comprising:
- an interior comprising a plurality of different and distinct regions, each region of the plurality of different and distinct regions comprising one or more mechanical interfaces associated therewith;
- and
- for each region of one or more regions of the plurality of different and distinct regions, at least one modular interior unit comprising an interior element and a base mechanically interfaced with the interior via the one or more mechanical interfaces associated with the region.
An autonomous-vehicle interior comprising:
- a plurality of evenly spaced rows, each row comprising a common number of multiple evenly spaced different and distinct regions each of which is defined at least in part by a particular shape;
- and
- for each region of the multiple evenly spaced different and distinct regions, one or more mechanical interfaces configured to mechanically interface with one or more bases of one or more modular interior units, each base of the one or more bases being defined at least in part by the particular shape.
An autonomous-vehicle interior comprising:
- a plurality of different and distinct regions each of which is defined at least in part by a particular shape;
- and
- for each region of the plurality of different and distinct regions, one or more mechanical interfaces configured to mechanically interface with one or more bases of one or more modular interior units each of which comprises one or more of a seat, a table, or a privacy partition, each base of the one or more bases being defined at least in part by the particular shape.
