Abstract:
Methods and systems for building, utilizing, and/or maintaining an autonomous vehicle-related event distributed ledger or blockchain are provided. One or more processors may receive indications of autonomous vehicle events. The autonomous vehicle events may include information relating to technology usage and/or operational events. The autonomous vehicle events may be compiled into a log of recorded autonomous vehicle events. Based upon the autonomous vehicle events, an action to implement bay be determined. Additionally, the log may be distributed to a public or private network of distributed nodes. As a result, the distributed nodes may maintain an up-to-date record of the shared ledger of autonomous vehicle events.
