Abstract: An orchestrator for a fleet management system is disclosed herein. The orchestrator is configured to monitor completion of an assigned job by an autonomous vehicle in a fleet of autonomous vehicles. For example, the autonomous vehicle may have an assigned job of delivering cargo from one location to another location. The orchestrator can identify a plurality of tasks to be completed by a plurality of subsystems of the fleet management system in order to enable completion of the assigned job by the autonomous vehicle. For example, the subsystems may include a troubleshooting subsystem, a remote operations subsystem, a fleet operations subsystem, a fleet coordinator, and/or an interface. The orchestrator can coordinate completion of the tasks by the plurality of subsystems.

Abstract: A network system, such as a transport management system, infers movement and a location of a vehicle associated with a transportation service using sensor data from a provider client device and a wireless device mounted in a fixed position in the vehicle. Before or during a transportation service, the provider client device transmits sensor data to the network system for use in detecting the occurrence of one or more specified events, such as a sudden deceleration or a harsh turn. The network system fuses the received sensor data to infer the movement of the vehicle along forward, lateral, and vertical axes and implements an event detector by analyzing movement of the vehicle in the forward direction. Fused sensor data received from the wireless device is used to validate the detected movement and to determine a position of the vehicle.

Abstract: Methods are provided for remotely starting up one or a plurality of vehicles. These methods involve starting up hardware and/or software modules of the vehicle in a particular order so as to account for dependencies among the various modules. In one form, states of various hardware and/or software modules in the vehicle, and errors observed in starting up various modules and troubleshooting is applied in an automated manner. Moreover, the methods may involve ensure proper startup of modules for performing a localization procedure for the vehicle.
