  • Publication number: 20220396293
    Abstract: Described herein are various technologies pertaining to selecting an autonomous vehicle for a trip of a passenger based on a passenger cargo reservation request and real time load data from a fleet of autonomous vehicles. The passenger cargo reservation request specifies a request to store passenger cargo in a cargo storage area of an autonomous vehicle during a ride of a passenger in the autonomous vehicle. Further, an autonomous vehicle from the fleet of autonomous vehicles can be selected for the trip of the passenger based on the passenger cargo reservation request and the real time load data for the autonomous vehicles in the fleet of autonomous vehicles.

  • Publication number: 20220269998
    Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to reserving seats in an autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle includes a plurality of seats that can be occupied by passengers when riding in the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle is configured to assign a particular seat from the plurality of seats in the autonomous vehicle to a passenger based on information pertaining to the passenger and information pertaining to a ride-sharing trip. The autonomous vehicle is to transport at least the passenger and a differing passenger during at least a portion of the ride-sharing trip. Moreover, the passenger and the differing passenger independently request rides in the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle is further configured to output, to the passenger, an indication of the particular seat assigned to the passenger.
