To further that vision, MIT researchers have given new capabilities to their fleet of robotic boats—which are being developed as part of an ongoing project—that lets them target and clasp onto each other, and keep trying if they fail. Self-driving technologies can save time, costs and energy, and improve the city moving forward.

One identified priority was research to develop low-cost coatings for buildings and roads to reduce heat effects and increase self-cooling. Some of the areas to be discussed are green construction; longitudinal impact studies; interconnected transportation modes such as rail, marine, and air transport; and transportation equity.
