 In terms of business models, use models and their implications for supply chain are open research problems. For example, for the supply chain, the critical technology is semiconductors which is highly sensitive to very high volume. For example, the largest market in mobility, the auto industry, is approx. 10% of semiconductor volume, and the other forms (airborne, marine, space) are orders-of-magnitude lower. From a supply chain point perspective, a small number of skews which service a large market are ideal. The research problem is: What should be the nature of these very scalable components.  In terms of end-markets, autonomy in traditional transportation is likely to lead to a reduction in unit volume. Why?   With autonomy, one can get much higher utilization (vs the < 5% in today's automobiles). However, it is also likely that autonomy unleashes a broad class of solutions in markets such as agriculture, warehouses, distribution, delivery, and more. Micromobility applications in particular offer some interesting options for very high volumes.  The exact nature of the applications is an open research problem. In terms of business models, use models and their implications for supply chain are open research problems.
