Imagine autonomous vehicles that are safer, more versatile, and hyper-efficient. AV Exit’s AI-powered two-module system makes this possible.
Our patented technology allows a vehicle’s Power Platform to swap entire Passenger Pods anywhere, anytime. For ultimate safety, our groundbreaking Escape by AI™ protocol enables the Pod to be deployed as an intelligent “escape pod” in emergencies—a critical advancement for autonomous travel.
With decades of robotics expertise, we are ready to advance this new era in personal mobility and are seeking development partners. Contact us for more information.
AV Exit redefines vehicle utility with a two-module system: a universal Power Platform and an interchangeable Passenger Pod. Our novel Exchange Protocol uses the vehicle’s own power and wheel systems to seamlessly swap pods in minutes—at home, a dealership, or a service hub.
This creates unparalleled versatility. A single Power Platform can support a fleet of specialized pods, such as a daily commuter, a weekend camper, or a commercial delivery unit. This lowers costs for consumers and improves margins for manufacturers.
Even in an AI-driven world, accidents are a reality. AV Exit provides a revolutionary layer of safety with our patented Escape by AI™ protocol.
When advanced sensors and predictive analysis detect an unavoidable collision, the AI instantly calculates the safest trajectory. It then uses the Power Platform to propel the Passenger Pod away from danger. This separation critically enhances safety by reducing the pod’s weight and speed prior to any impact.
The AV Exit system is a fully developed, patented, and patent-pending intellectual property portfolio.
We are seeking partners for licensing, acquisition, or joint development to integrate this transformative technology into next-generation autonomous vehicles. Contact us to receive detailed specifications and discuss implementation.
The Challenge: The Million-Mile Vehicle
The next generation of autonomous vehicles will be built to last, with power platforms capable of running for a million miles or more. While this durability is a win for consumers and sustainability, it presents a fundamental challenge to the traditional automotive sales model.
When vehicles don’t need to be replaced for decades, how can manufacturers maintain profitability and drive innovation?
The Solution: Shift the Sales Cycle from Platform to Pod
AV Exit provides the definitive answer. Our system decouples the long-life Power Platform from the fast-evolving Passenger Pod. This transforms the business model: instead of selling a whole new car, manufacturers can offer a continuous cycle of new pod designs, features, and experiences.
AV Exit makes platform durability a winning proposition by creating a new, sustainable revenue stream.
The Result: Profitability, Choice, and Sustainability
This new paradigm creates a powerful win-win-win scenario:
Manufacturers: Secure long-term profitability, accelerate model development, and keep customers engaged with exciting upgrades.
Consumers: Gain unprecedented freedom and choice, customizing their vehicle for any purpose at a fraction of the cost of a new car.
Sustainability: Maximize the lifespan of the resource-intensive Power Platform, dramatically reducing the environmental footprint of personal mobility.
A simple command from a mobile app is all it takes. The user selects their desired Passenger Pod—whether it’s a daily commuter, a pickup bed, or a family camper—and the AV Exit system takes over. The entire swap is performed autonomously in minutes.
Our protocol is designed for elegant integration. It leverages the vehicle’s existing autonomous hardware (processor, sensors, motors) and augments it with a few key innovations:
Automated Capture/Release Mechanisms: Securely lock and unlock the pod from the Power Platform.
Self-Aligning Connectors: Automatically engage all power, data, and utility connections.
Integrated Pod Stands: Retractable stands deploy to support the pod for easy swapping and storage.
This efficient, low-cost exchange process is what unlocks the full value of the two-module system.
By separating the Power Platform from the Passenger Pod, customers can upgrade or change their vehicle’s function for a fraction of the cost of a new car. For manufacturers, this creates a powerful new revenue stream, improves margins, and builds lasting customer loyalty through continuous innovation and choice.
Our Escape by AI™ protocol operates on a principle of constant vigilance. Using a suite of advanced sensors and predictive algorithms, the system continuously analyzes the vehicle’s surroundings to identify and map potential escape routes in real-time, preparing for a threat before it occurs.
When the AI predicts an unavoidable collision, it executes the Exit Protocol in milliseconds. It instantly selects the optimal escape path and uses the Power Platform’s own motors to intelligently propel the Passenger Pod away from the point of impact.
Separation is the key to survivability. Once detached, the lighter Passenger Pod decelerates rapidly. An expanded friction base at the pod’s foundation further slows its momentum, bringing it to a much safer stop. By shedding the mass and momentum of the Power Platform before an impact, we dramatically reduce the forces exerted on the passengers—addressing a primary cause of collision-related injuries and fatalities.
