Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques for autonomous vehicle management. When a service request (e.g., ride request, maintenance request, idling request, etc.) is received, the service request may be matched with an appropriate service provider (e.g., an autonomous vehicle to a rider, a maintenance facility to an autonomous vehicle, etc.). An autonomous vehicle may be then be dispatched based on the service request. For example, the autonomous vehicle may be dispatched to a pickup location associated with a ride request. Similarly, the autonomous vehicle may be dispatched to a maintenance facility in response to receiving a maintenance request. The maintenance request may be triggered after applying one or more thresholds and/or rules to the autonomous ride data collected from the autonomous vehicle. As autonomous ride data is collected from various autonomous vehicles, it can be analyzed to determine traffic patterns, road conditions, or other data.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a computing device of a first vehicle, a message, from a second vehicle, to be presented to an entity within proximity of the first vehicle. The method includes determining, by the computing device of the first vehicle, a location of the entity relative to the first vehicle. The method includes selecting, by the computing device of the first vehicle, a notification device of the first vehicle based on the location of the entity relative to the first vehicle. The method includes causing, by the computing device of the first vehicle, the message from the second vehicle to be presented to the entity by the selected notification device.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for an augmented reality transportation system. For example, the systems and methods described herein present an augmented reality environment for a driver or a passenger including augmented reality elements to mark specific locations within a display of real-world surroundings. Additionally, the systems and methods described herein analyze historical information to determine placements for augmented reality elements. The systems and methods also enable a user to share an augmented reality or virtual reality environment with another user.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes detecting, by a computing device of an autonomous vehicle, one of multiple entities within a proximity of the autonomous vehicle. The method also includes determining a location of the one of the entities relative to the autonomous vehicle, determining a type of the one of the entities, and determining a predefined message to be presented to the one of the entities based on the location of the one of the entities relative to the autonomous vehicle and further based on the type of the one of the entities. The predefined message is specific to the type of the one of the entities. The method includes causing the predefined message to be presented to the one of the entities by a notification device of the autonomous vehicle associated with the location of the one of the entities relative to the autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques for autonomous vehicle management. In an embodiment, service requests are received and a set of service providers responsive to the request are determined. For example, a set of service providers that are eligible to be matched to the service request may be comprised of autonomous and non-autonomous vehicles. The set of service providers are matched to the request based on various factors such as a match score based on at least a location factor and a weighting factor.

Abstract: As the number of autonomous vehicles on the road increases, the need to better integrate those vehicles with traffic also increases. As discussed, various entities in common traffic scenarios (e.g., other vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians, etc.) are all accustomed to navigating traffic in particular ways. Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for autonomous vehicles to identify entities in traffic and communicate messages to those entities based on the autonomous vehicle's planned movements. For example, embodiments allow the use of one or more notification devices distributed across an autonomous vehicle to provide messages to nearby entities. Accordingly, embodiments utilize available sensor data to identify nearby entities and provide messages to these entities.

Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for locating and navigating to the location of a requestor based on proximity between a requestor device and a provider device. For example, embodiments display proximity indicators to allow a provider to quickly, easily, and safely locate a requestor upon arrival near a request location. Further, in some embodiments, graphics associated with a proximity vector may be presented on a provider communication device to clearly display the navigation directions to the provider so that the provider may easily find their matched requestor without requiring additional communication between the provider and the requestor. Additionally, embodiments provide efficient navigation to riders by limiting display of proximity indicators for navigation until the provider is within a threshold distance to the request location to conserve system resources and communication between an on-demand matching system and the provider computing device.

Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for identifying and matching requestors and providers. For example, embodiments can display an identification pattern that is unique for a matched requestor and provider to allow the providers and requestors to quickly, easily, and accurately validate one another's identities prior to a service being provided. In some embodiments, the identification element may be presented on a provider communication device to clearly display graphics associated with an identification element to all requestors in an area so that the requestors may easily identify a matched provider.
