Abstract: A vehicle is configured to receive, from a passenger, a pickup request including an approximate location of the passenger, to scan for the passenger after arriving at the approximate location of the passenger, and to determine whether the passenger has been identified by comparing passenger attribute information to results of the scan, and to transmit an approximate location of the vehicle and vehicle identification information to the passenger when the passenger has not been identified or is not accessible for pickup. The passenger is picked up by the vehicle when the passenger has been identified and is accessible for pickup. In addition, the passenger may also use a portable electronic device to identify the vehicle based on the received approximate location of the vehicle and vehicle identification information.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for estimating head pose angles of a user includes determining a first rotation between a first head pose axis associated with a first image of a plurality of images of the user and a camera axis associated with a camera taking the images. A second rotation is determined between a second head pose axis associated with a second image of the user and the camera axis. The first and second head pose axes are determined based on light reflections within the plurality of images. A head pose angle of the user can be estimated based on the first rotation and the second rotation. An alert can be generated based on the estimated head pose angle.
