Out of the advancements in Information Technology, the Internet of Things (IoT) plays an important and major role as it metamorphose the object from real world Scenario to intelligent virtual form. The term Internet of Things is coined from two phrases such as Internet and Thing which states that the physical objects such as computing devices acts through the network of connection. This technological ecosystem allows the object or thing to collect and transfer the data through the internet, without any physical assistance. It includes four major processes such as collect, communicate, analyse and act. The main purpose of IoT is making the human life smart thereby reducing the human effort. The cloud is an environment that seems to be a reinforcement of booming technology. It provides everything as service, right from storage to computing power through internet. It seems to be a flexible computing model that has intensified the growth of information technology. It enchanted the sprout of IoT as it needs more storage for the data that are acquired from the objects. Another booming technology is artificial intelligence where the intelligence of machine is used for enabling smart tasks than using the human intelligence. It is in existence since 1950 s but the resurgence of it happens during twenty-first century with the advances in computing power and storage of voluminous data. The main purpose of AI is to achieve accurate interpretation of voluminous data and extract valuable learning from the data thereby achieving the appropriate goals in a flexible manner. The IoT with this gleaming AI allows the physical objects to collect the valuable data through continuous streaming and allows it to perceive its tasks and domains for greatest chance of prosperous goal achievement. Blockchain is another revolution of the information technology. The blockchain or Distributed Ledger Technology is a promising technology where the digital assets of myriad users are managed by maintaining the transparency and evading the undesirable alterations. It stores and manages the data in the form of multiple blocks with respective cryptographic hashing. It is a distributed and decentralized model where the digital form of transactions are recorded in multiple devices, this allows the system to do any alterations or changes in each and every blocks so as to make changes in the record. This model avoids the precarious changes that may occur in the digital world. The IoT with this blockchain technology or the blockchain of thing may allow the digital environment to create a permanent, verifiable and secure method of managing the valuable data through intelligent machines. It will enable humanless interventions for decision making through proper environment interactions. This chapter elaborates all the four technologies such as IoT, AI, Cloud and Blockchain with regard to the autonomous vehicles. The need for these flickering technologies are explored and exposed so as to understand these technologies. The synergies of IoT with other three technologies are discussed for better understanding and upgradation of the technology. It also scrutinizes the recent developments with all these technological synergies.
