'Cube Intelligence' is a London, United Kingdom-based startup in the blockchain and automotive spaces. Cube aims to leverage mobility data, combined with the blockchain and an advanced AI engine, to create a 'Mobility-as-a-Serivce' (MaaS) platform, as well as a security platform.
The company's autonomous vehicle security platform authenticates ownership of autonomous vehicles via the blockchain. This platform is called 'SYNAPSE,' though Cube believes that this platform will substantially grow after self-driving vehicles become more popular with general consumers.
The other service offered by Cube Intelligence is its MaaS platform. This platform will collect mobility data, such as traffic, emissions, driving modes, overcrowding, etc, with sensors that deliver this data in real time. These sensors are known as the 'Cubebox.' The data is not provided for free, though, as Cubebox users are rewarded Cube Tokens for choosing to provide real-time data updates.
The MaaS, in the end, will integrate payments, routing, passenger optimization, and numerous types of transportation methods, onto a single platform powered by cryptocurrency and the blockchain.
