Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for synchronously displaying, a first interface on a requestor mobile computing device and a second interface on an autonomous vehicle computing device based on a ride state. For example, the autonomous vehicle synchronization system provides effective communication during a transportation request fulfilled by an autonomous vehicle by synchronously providing for display the first interface and the second interface based on the ride state. For example, in response to receiving a digital transportation request, the autonomous vehicle synchronization system can monitor signals from a requestor mobile computing device and/or the autonomous vehicle computing device. Based on the monitored signals, the autonomous vehicle synchronization system determines the ride state and generates the first interface and second interface and provides, for synchronous display, the first and second interfaces.
