1. A method, comprising:
receiving a request to generate a vehicle path for a requestor;
retrieving one or more preferences to be applied in generating the vehicle path, wherein the one or more preferences comprise requestor specified or selected values conveying conditions to prefer when generating the vehicle path;
accessing one or more data stores and sensor data pertaining to the requestor, other individuals relevant to vehicle path generation, and a site or region relevant to vehicle path generation, wherein the one or more data stores and the sensor data comprise device data for the other individuals, vehicle data for the other individuals, and respective paths or guidance associated with the other individuals;
generating one or more vehicle path models using quantum computational techniques and based on the one or more preferences and the one or more data stores and the sensor data, wherein the quantum computational techniques comprise a combinatorial analysis performed by a qubit processor, wherein the qubit processor is configured to generate the one or more vehicle path models in real time based on the one or more data stores and sensor data; and
providing the one or more quantum computed vehicle path models to the requestor to select the vehicle path.
