UTILIZING TRANSITION TIMES TO INTELLIGENTLY SELECT TRANSITION LOCATIONS FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240263951 titled 'UTILIZING TRANSITION TIMES TO INTELLIGENTLY SELECT TRANSITION LOCATIONS FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
The patent application describes a system for determining transition locations for autonomous vehicles based on transition times.
- Utilizes computer models to analyze updates from provider and requester devices.
- Determines transition times for various locations within geographic areas.
- Selects transition locations based on transition times for autonomous vehicles.
- Utilizes geohash mapping and telematic data to establish preferred pickup locations.
- Provides a subset of preferred pickup locations for efficient navigation of autonomous devices.
Potential Applications: - Autonomous vehicle navigation systems - Logistics and transportation management - Ride-sharing and on-demand services
Problems Solved: - Efficient selection of transition locations for autonomous vehicles - Optimization of pickup locations based on transition times
Benefits: - Improved efficiency in autonomous vehicle navigation - Enhanced user experience for ride-sharing services - Cost savings through optimized route planning
Commercial Applications: Title: "Optimized Autonomous Vehicle Navigation System" This technology can be used in autonomous vehicle fleets for ride-sharing services, delivery companies, and public transportation systems to improve route planning and efficiency.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system determine the transition times for different locations?
- The system utilizes computer models and telematic data to analyze updates from provider devices and requester devices to determine transition times.
2. What are the key factors considered when selecting preferred pickup locations?
- The system considers geohash mapping and provider device telematic data to establish a measure of pickups that satisfy transition time characteristics in given geographic areas.
Original Abstract Submitted
this disclosure describes an av transition location system that can utilize computer implemented models to analyze updates from provider devices and requester devices, determine transition times for a variety of locations within various geographic areas, and intelligently select transition locations for autonomous vehicles or other provider devices based on the transition times. in particular, in one or more embodiments the disclosed systems utilize geohash mapping combined with provider device telematic data to establish a measure of pickups that satisfy transition time characteristics in given geographic areas. depending on unique features required by the provider devices, the disclosed systems can provide a subset of preferred pickup locations to accurately and efficiently navigate autonomous devices.
