TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240310839 titled 'TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
The abstract of the patent application describes a system that includes autonomous vehicles, interconnected roadways, and a management system. The vehicles are designed to cooperate with each other or with an area controller, while the management system receives transport requests and assigns vehicles to fulfill those requests.
- Autonomous vehicles that can cooperate with each other or with an area controller
- Interconnected roadways that facilitate transportation
- Management system that receives transport requests and assigns vehicles to fulfill them
- Vehicles transport individuals from start points to destinations via the interconnected roadways
Potential Applications: - Urban transportation systems - Ride-sharing services - Logistics and delivery services
Problems Solved: - Efficient and automated transportation - Reduced traffic congestion - Improved overall transportation system management
Benefits: - Increased efficiency in transportation - Reduced environmental impact - Enhanced user experience for passengers
Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Urban Transportation System for Enhanced Efficiency" This technology can be utilized in urban areas to improve transportation services, reduce congestion, and enhance overall mobility. It can be implemented by transportation companies, municipalities, and ride-sharing services to optimize their operations and provide a better experience for users.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system improve overall transportation efficiency? - The system streamlines transportation processes by assigning vehicles to fulfill transport requests, reducing wait times and optimizing routes. 2. What are the potential environmental benefits of implementing this technology? - By reducing traffic congestion and optimizing transportation routes, the system can help decrease emissions and improve air quality in urban areas.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system includes at least partially autonomous vehicles, at least partially separated interconnected roadways, and a management system. each of the vehicles is configured to cooperate with another vehicle or an area controller. the management system is configured to receive requests to transport, which may have respective start points and respective destinations. additionally, the management system is configured, responsive to receiving the request, to assign a vehicle to fulfill the request. the assigned vehicle is configured to transport a person from the respective start point, at least in part via the interconnected roadways, to the respective destination.
