Patent number: 10957123Abstract: Systems and methods provide for enabling an autonomous vehicle to automatically and dynamically monitor and maintain itself. The autonomous vehicle can analyze diagnostic data captured by a sensor of the autonomous vehicle in accordance with a model of autonomous vehicle operations. Based on the analysis of the diagnostic data, the autonomous vehicle can determine an operational issue and a criticality level of the operational issue based on the model of autonomous vehicle operations and, based on that determination, send the analysis of the diagnostic data to a routing service. The autonomous vehicle can receive instruction from the routing service to dynamically route the autonomous vehicle in accordance with a maintenance action.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2019Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: GM Cruise Holdings, LLCInventors: Thomas Bachant, Nadav Ullman, Joseph Thibeault, Jake McCloskey, Paul Garcia, Jose Arturo Covarrubias, Michael Magnoli

Publication number: 20170039504Abstract: According to some embodiments, information about a first enterprise having a first fleet of vehicles is used to create a first customer interface to receive ride requests from customers via at least one communication network. Similarly, information about a second enterprise (located geographically remote from the first enterprise) having a second fleet of vehicles is used to create a second customer interface. An affiliate link may be established between the first enterprise and the second enterprise. When a ride request is received via the first customer interface, and it is determined that the first customer is located geographically proximate to the second enterprise, it may be arranged for a vehicle from the second fleet to be assigned to the request based on the affiliate link between the first enterprise and the second enterprise.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2015Publication date: February 9, 2017Inventors: Nadav Ullman, Michael Magnoli, Thomas Bachant, Joseph Thibeault
