  • Patent number: 11961018
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include identifying and notifying requestors that may be candidates for a particular autonomous vehicle in order to find those candidates that may be willing or able to relax their travel constraints to match the autonomous vehicle. A request flow may involve surfacing the potential option of matching to an autonomous vehicle before setting a specific destination. For example, the request flow may involve determining that an autonomous vehicle is sufficiently near an in-session potential requestor. Before the potential requestor enters a specific destination, the request flow may present the possibility of the potential requestor being matched with the autonomous vehicle. In some examples, the request flow may then provide available drop-off locations that are compatible with the autonomous vehicle for selection by the potential requestor. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11868929
    Abstract: The present application discloses an improved transportation matching system, and corresponding methods and computer-readable media. According to the disclosed embodiments, the transportation matching system identifies low engagement transportation providers by analyzing information associated with the transportation providers to generate engagement levels. Furthermore, the system identifies an optimal match between a low engagement transportation provider (regardless of whether the transportation provider is online or offline) and a scheduled transportation request by utilizing attributes associated with a scheduled transportation request and attributes associated with transportation providers to generate rankings for the transportation providers. Additionally, the system provides the scheduled transportation request exclusively to a selected transportation provider based on the generated rankings.

  • Publication number: 20220030175
    Abstract: A method for reducing power consumption of a 3D image capture system includes capturing 3D image data with the 3D image capture system while the 3D image capture system is in a first power state, detecting a power state change trigger, and switching from the first power state to a second power state based on the power state change trigger, wherein the 3D image capture system consumes less power in the second power state than in the first power state.

  • Patent number: 10655967
    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for hygiene device marker placement on a map interface, indoor locator system installation, and/or hygiene installation plan creation for hygiene devices. In an example, a map interface may be displayed on a client device of a user. The user may place and/or reposition hygiene device markers (e.g., a representation of a sanitizer dispenser within a department store building), locator beacon markers (e.g., a representation of a Bluetooth locator beacon marker of an indoor locator system installation for the department store building), and/or hygiene installation markers (e.g., a representation of a soap dispenser that is to be installed within the department store building) within the map interface (e.g., a depiction of the department store building). A marker may be repositioned within the map interface to an adjusted position that may be used to update GPS coordinates used to initially position the marker.
