  • Publication number: 20230075585
    Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for determining matches of requestors and providers based on a dynamic provider eligibility model. For example, a request matching model uses an estimated arrival time for a requestor and estimated travel times for available providers to a pickup location to determine eligible providers for matching to a ride request. The matching model determines those providers that are far enough away from the request location to allow the requestor time to arrive at the pickup location without matching providers that are too far away, causing delay for the requestor and lowering the efficiency of the system by taking provider system resources from other service areas and increasing provider downtime upon matching. Additionally, embodiments provide more efficient matching processing leading to fewer canceled matched requests, fewer requests for a successful match, and fewer system resources necessary to meet requestor demand.

  • Patent number: 11584374
    Abstract: A method for shifting a transmission in a machine. The method includes detecting a request for a directional shift of the transmission and determining a ground speed of the machine in response to the request. The method further includes overriding the request if the ground speed is above a ground speed threshold. Further, the method includes preparing the machine for the directional shift by limiting an output speed of a power source of the machine and by issuing a command to a brake unit of the machine to reduce the ground speed of the machine. Furthermore, the method includes validating and raising the request to the transmission to execute the directional shift if the ground speed is below the ground speed threshold.
