  • Patent number: 10914600
    Abstract: Methods and systems for analyzing, ranking, and presenting multi-modality transportation proposals are presented. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes receiving a request for transportation and generating proposals that include routes for transportation an origin location and a destination location of the request. The proposals each include segment(s) corresponding to a portion of a route and at least one modality identifying a type of transportation for the segment(s). Proposal scores may then be calculated for each of the proposals. Proposal scores for a proposal may be calculated based on a disutility measure of the proposal that measures a predicted inconvenience for a user following the route identified by the proposal. The proposals may be ranked based on the proposal scores and the ranking may be transmitted to a mobile device for display on the mobile device.

  • Publication number: 20200400444
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include determining that one or more personal mobility vehicles would provide more benefit to the dynamic transportation network if the personal mobility vehicles were relocated and creating a dynamically generated tour for at least one user that ends with a personal mobility vehicle deposited by the requestor at a more beneficial location. In some embodiments, the dynamically generated tour may include one or more geographic points of interest that are expected to be relevant to the user. In some examples, the dynamically generated tour may be generated with various constraints such as time, distance, and battery usage. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9911238
    Abstract: In a general aspect, a system can include a leader device. The leader device can include an interface configured to display a plurality of preview images, each preview image corresponding with respective virtual reality (VR) content. The leader device also include a selection device configured to select a preview image of the plurality of preview images and a leader application configured to control presentation of the respective VR content associated with the selected preview image. The system can further include a plurality of participant devices that are operationally coupled with the leader device. Each participant device of the plurality of participant devices can be configured to, responsive to the leader device, display at least one image included in the respective VR content corresponding with the selected preview image.
