Abstract
In one aspect, a system for automatically assigning vehicle identifiers for autonomous vehicles can include a registry server computing system configured to perform operations. The operations can include receiving, at the registry server computing system and from a vehicle computing system onboard an autonomous vehicle, data describing the autonomous vehicle and generating, at the registry server computing system, a vehicle identifier for the autonomous vehicle based on the data describing the autonomous vehicle. The vehicle identifier can be different than and distinct from the data describing the autonomous vehicle. The operations can include associating, at the registry server computing system, the data describing the autonomous vehicle with the vehicle identifier for the autonomous vehicle in a vehicle registry. The vehicle registry can include respective vehicle identifiers associated with a plurality of autonomous vehicles.
