    Abstract: Computationally implemented methods and systems that are designed for receiving one or more package delivery directives that direct a transportation vehicle unit to deliver one or more packages; receiving one or more end user transport directives that direct the transportation vehicle unit to transport one or more end users; and verifying that the one or more end user transport directives do not conflict with the one or more package delivery directives such that transport of the one or more end users by the transportation vehicle unit in accordance with the one or more end user transport directives will not violate one or more package delivery obligations of the transportation vehicle unit to deliver the one or more packages in accordance with the one or more package delivery directives. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.

    Abstract: Systems are described for monitoring environmental conditions around extremities to aid in preventing damage associated with physical impact. A device embodiment includes, but is not limited to, a deformable substrate configured to conform to a skin surface of a body portion; a sensor assembly coupled to the deformable substrate, the sensor assembly including a proximity sensor configured to generate a sense signal associated with a proximity of an environmental object relative to the body portion; circuitry operably coupled to the sensor assembly and configured to receive the sense signal associated with the proximity of an environmental object relative to the body portion; and a reporting device operably coupled to the circuitry and configured to generate a communication signal associated with one or more of the environmental object or the proximity of the environmental object relative to the body portion responsive to instruction by the circuitry.

    Abstract: Computationally implemented methods and systems that are designed for transmitting one or more requests for one or more identities of one or more transportation vehicle units for transporting one or more end users; receiving the one or more identities of the one or more transportation vehicle units for transporting the one or more end users, the one or more identified transportation vehicle units having been identified based, at least in part, on a determination that the one or more identified transportation vehicle units do not have any package delivery obligation that would be violated if the one or more identified transportation vehicle units transport the one or more end users to one or more destination locations; and directing the one or more identified transportation vehicle units to rendezvous with the one or more end users in order to transport the one or more end users to the one or more destination locations. In addition to the foregoing, other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text.
