Abstract
A method for fulfilling a work task request using a modular autonomous vehicle is provided. The method includes transmitting a work task request specifying a work request to be performed by the modular autonomous vehicle, and identifying equipment required for performing the work task request. Once the work task request is stored at a server, the method further includes identifying information of the equipment required for performing the work task request, and determining whether equipment of the modular autonomous vehicle corresponds to the equipment required for assigning the work task to the modular autonomous vehicle. Method also includes, upon receiving in-cabin sensing data, assigning or denying the work task to the modular autonomous vehicle for performance of the work task.
