Abstract: The disclosed technology provides solutions for protecting the health of ride-sharing passengers by detecting passenger illnesses, and taking precautions to safely address potentially exposed vehicles. A process of the disclosed technology can include steps for: collecting sensor-data corresponding with one or more AV passengers, determining a likelihood that at least one of the AV passengers is suffering from a physical illness, and transmitting a wellness notification to a fleet management system if the likelihood exceeds a predetermined threshold. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

Abstract: A power system for a digital license plate includes a sensor, storage memory, and a battery status monitor operable only during operation of the digital license plate. The battery status monitor includes an analog to digital converter (ADC) connected to a battery to provide status data to a processor in the digital license plate, with status data being stored in the storage memory. A determination of battery lifetime being made at least in part using the status data and input from the sensor. In one embodiment status data can include external temperature.
