摘要

As autonomous shuttles eliminate on-board staff, public transportation faces a critical loss of human assistance. We propose integrating humanoid robots to complement autonomous shuttles, restoring essential passenger support and safety roles. This novel concept directly addresses this critical gap and could ensure user-friendly and inclusive transit experiences in automated systems in the future. Our perspective highlights the relevance of humanoid robots for future mobility systems, with broad implications for efficient, accessible, and resilient transportation systems.
