What MPAI-CAV is about

The goal of MPAI-CAV standards is to specify the subsystems and components of a Connected Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) that enable the industry to accelerate the development of explainable, efficient, and affordable CAVs. To achieve this goal, MPAI is publishing a series of standards designed to enhance interoperability of CAV subsystems and components.

Visit the About MPAI-CAV page for an introduction to the MPAI-CAV – Architecture standard.

Technical Specification: Connected Autonomous Vehicles (MPAI-CAV) – Technologies V1.0

Technical Specification: Connected Autonomous Vehicles (MPAI-CAV) – Architecture V1.0 is the first of the planned series of standards. MPAI-CAV – Architecture partitions a CAV into Subsystems that are further partitioned into Components. Both Subsystems and Components are specified by their functions and interfaces. Subsystems are additionally specified by their Component topology.
