Abstract: There is disclosed a method of operating an autonomous vehicle (AV), including: detecting an alert condition within the AV via data from an electronic sensor suite of the AV; based at least in part on detecting the alert condition, automatically initiating a call with another party; and communicatively coupling a passenger of the AV to the conference call, whereby the passenger can communicate with the other party via the conference call.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method of providing rider service for an autonomous vehicle (AV) system, including operating an AV to provide a trip to a passenger; associating the passenger with a unique passenger identifier (UPID); receiving passenger metadata for the passenger according to the UPID; and responding to a rider service instance, comprising customizing the response according to the UPID and the passenger metadata.

Abstract: Disclosed is a technology for assaying individual cells, in which the identity of each individual cell in an ordered array is determined from coordinates assigned to it, and can be readout at high throughput with microscope. The method is able to test responses of millions of identical cells in multiple chemical and physical processes with superior statistics power to facilitate deep data mining.

Abstract: There is disclosed an autonomous vehicle (AV), including an AV chassis comprising a drive system and a cabin comprising a plurality of cabin controls; an AV controller, including a processor circuit and a memory, wherein the memory includes instructions to instruct the processor circuit to operate the drive system in a fully autonomous configuration; actuators to electronically operate the cabin controls; a communication circuit with wireless communication capability; and instructions encoded within the memory to further instruct the processor circuit to: receive a remote cabin control command; and in response to the remote cabin control command, operate a cabin control.

Abstract: There is disclosed herein a method of providing customer service, including receiving a customer service request from an autonomous vehicle (AV), the customer service request comprising sensor data collected by the AV; selecting a standard operating procedure (SOP) for responding to the customer service request, the SOP selected from a data store comprising a plurality of SOPs, wherein selecting the SOP is based at least in part on the sensor data from the AV, and wherein the SOP includes a human-usable resolution script; and handling the customer service request, including displaying the human-usable resolution script to a human customer service agent to assist the human customer service agent in handling the customer service request.
