Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for vehicle safety technologies. An example method can include detecting, based on sensor data captured by an autonomous vehicle (AV), an emergency event associated with the AV; and in response to detecting the emergency event, generating information about the emergency event based on the sensor data and sending, to an emergency responder, a wireless signal including a request for help from the emergency responder and the information about the emergency event; and based on a determination that the emergency responder is within a threshold proximity to the AV, providing additional data associated with the emergency event to the emergency responder and/or one or more devices associated with the emergency responder.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle (AV) implements a health protocol that may reduce pathogen transmission between users of the AV. The AV is equipped with a thermal sensor that captures a body temperature of a user. The AV compares the user's temperature to a threshold temperature, and if the user's temperature exceeds the threshold temperature, the AV performs checks to ensure that the user's planned trip follows current regulations or recommendations. For example, the AV confirms that the user is traveling between the user's home and a healthcare facility. If the trip is permitted, the AV enables the user to enter the AV. The AV may include a disinfectant system for disinfecting the passenger compartment or surfaces after the user exits the AV.

Abstract: The subject disclosure relates to features that improve safety for autonomous vehicle (AV) maneuvers and in particular, that improve safety for parallel parking. A process of the disclosed technology includes steps for initiating a parking maneuver, navigating the AV into a parking location, and detecting a roadway grade with respect to a direction of the AV. In some aspects, the process can further include steps for automatically adjusting a wheel angle of the AV based on the roadway grade with respect to the direction of the AV. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an automated process for vehicle service. In particular, an individually owned vehicle is integrated with a service provider platform for a fleet of vehicles such that data flows bidirectionally between the vehicle and the platform. The bidirectional flow of data enables an intelligent and automated end-to-end maintenance and/or repair process for the individually owned vehicle, including issue detection, accident management, and seamless vehicle exchange. For example, the vehicle can send a signal to the platform to schedule a repair and request a replacement vehicle from the platform during the repair. The platform can coordinate with a facility to schedule the repair, send a signal to the vehicle to autonomously drive itself to the scheduled repair, and provide a replacement vehicle to the vehicle's home during the repair.

Abstract: Systems and methods for targeted advertisements displayed on a vehicle. A dynamic advertising platform leverages various ridehail service modalities to present targeted advertisements to users and bystanders. The modalities can include ridehail applications, external vehicle screens, interior vehicle screens, and other in-car experience formats. The targeted advertisements can be selected based on various factors, which can be personalized based on the user as well as based on the advertising business's preferences.

Abstract: Systems and methods for augmented in-vehicle experiences. In particular, systems and methods for an immersive in-vehicle experience are provided, with customizable virtual and augmented reality options. Systems and techniques are provided for vehicles to perform real-time detection and augmentation of the real world environment, including tracked objects and buildings in the real world environment. The vehicles use intelligently matched vehicle sensor data, map data, and other source data for detection and augmentation of the environment. In some examples, procedurally generated three-dimensional (3D) environments are provided, which are based on a current ride route and surrounding real world environment.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an autonomous vehicle interactive experience platform. An interactive experience platform is provided that utilizes vehicle sensors, as well as in-cabin hardware and software, and fleet management information, to provide a unique and personalized autonomous vehicle interactive experience. The interactive experience platform can use external factors to influence in-experience elements. In some examples, the interactive experience platform can use in-experience events to influence autonomous vehicle behavior.
