Autonomous Symmetry does traffic analysis for autonomous cars. It was founded to invent this new field of analysis from the ground up, to explain it, to promote it, and, should cities take the dive, to provide their best minds with tools to plan ahead of their time.If history is a guide, most cities will not prepare for autonomous vehicles until it is too late. It won't take long for developers to figure out how to build their properties based on where autonomous cars can most numerously go. This will spur a virtuous cycle tying the hands of city planners and engineers who could have planned better routes earlier, along with foregone patterns for smarter development, interconnected parks and pedestrian paths, and greener infrastructure.In most cities, autonomous technology will lead down a path of partial chaos. If we embrace autonomous analysis before the technology arrives in ubiquitous form, we can challenge this chaos with early design, feedback, and symmetry.Autonomous Symmetry was founded to invent this new field of analysis, to explain it, to promote it, and, should cities take the dive, to provide their best minds with tools to plan ahead of their time. Like the forces which transformed cities in the past, autonomous cars will shake the foundations of urban life. They will push against the balance of power between cities and within cities. They will change where we live, how we spend our time, how we see cities, and how we see ourselves in them.
