  • Patent number: 12014584
    Abstract: The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for contact center channel merging. In an example method, a first inbound communication associated with a vehicle event may be received from a first vehicle component of a vehicle via a first communication medium, the first inbound communication including a first identifier. A second inbound communication associated with the vehicle event may be received from a second vehicle component of the vehicle via a second communication medium, the second inbound communication including a second identifier. It may be determined that a first time associated with the first inbound communication and a second time associated with the second inbound communication are within a predetermined threshold, and that the first identifier and the second identifier are both associated with the vehicle. At least one notification may be sent based in part on an aggregation of the first inbound communication and the second inbound communication.

  • Publication number: 20230111908
    Abstract: An early stopped traffic response system includes a distributed computing system controller programmed and/or configured to reduce travel time delays caused by predictable instances of traffic stoppage associated with common carrier traffic. An early stopped traffic response system may obtain the common carrier schedule and route associated with a first crossing point or intersection, predict an estimated arrival time for the common carrier vehicle at the intersection, and determine, based on the estimated arrival time at the intersection, a time delay associated with the common carrier vehicle crossing the intersection. The early stopped traffic response system may generate a navigation plan that reroutes the delayed vehicle in advance of arrival at the intersection by predicting the common carrier arrival time.
