🤖 🚕 IDTechEx expects robotaxis to become a common sight in major cities over the next twenty years. The business case for robotaxis, although not without its obstacles, is compelling. However, in the meantime, there will still be billions of privately owned vehicles on the roads. It is no easy task to drop a robotaxi anywhere in the world at the moment, and expect it to drive and thrive. As robotaxis are the future, but won't dominate overnight, this new article by IDTechEx Technology Analyst John Li analyzes the case for autonomous private vehicles, and considers the impact on the related software market.

📶 In October 2025, Virgin Media (one of the UK's largest telecom operators) signed a landmark partnership with Starlink to provide D2C (direct-to-cell) mobile services from 2026. Although this technology will harness the same satellites as those used for Starlink's satellite Wi-Fi, IDTechEx Senior Technology Analyst Mika Takahashi explains how D2C mobile services face fundamental physical challenges that will affect their performance compared with satellite Wi-Fi.
