Abstract

This disclosure describes methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems that can determine locations and geospatial scores for pick-up events and other transportation events relative to geocoded areas at a given time period and generate geospatial-based proportion metrics for provider devices corresponding to such transportation events as proportional premiums for performing the events. For example, the systems determine locations of provider devices across geocoded areas for a particular time period. The systems can generate geospatial scores for transportation events of the provider devices occurring within the time period based on the specific locations and times of the events relative to the geocoded areas. Based on the geospatial scores and cumulative metrics accounting for such transportation events relative to the geocoded areas, the systems can generate geospatial-based-proportion metrics corresponding to such events for a graphical display on provider devices.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer readable media, and methods that provide graphical user interfaces comprising future transportation options with varying time windows at different transportation values and dynamically analyze the time windows to identify provider devices to fulfill transportation requests based on provider device efficiency metrics. For instance, the disclosed systems can delay selection of a provider device within a future time window utilizing a dynamic threshold provider device efficiency metric. For instance, the disclosed systems can analyze historical distributions of provider devices to generate a transition probability matrix that is utilized to analyze current provider devices and determine a threshold provider device efficiency metric that reflects the likelihood of identifying more efficient matches in the future. The disclosed systems can compare the determined threshold to anticipated efficiency metrics for individual provider devices to generate matches for digital transportation requests.

Abstract

The present application discloses systems, methods, and computer-readable media that can dynamically control a number of provider devices operating in a prioritized-dispatch mode by determining a range of prioritized-dispatch-mode slots for a target time based on differences between value metrics received by provider devices operating in multiple dispatch modes and sending availability nudges to provider devices based on the range of prioritized-dispatch-mode slots. For instance, the disclosed systems can generate a threshold-noticeable-value difference between historical value metrics received by provider devices while operating in a prioritized-dispatch mode and in a basic-dispatch mode. Based on the threshold-noticeable-value difference, the disclosed systems determine a range of slots for the prioritized-dispatch mode during a target time period for a geographic area. Based on the determined range of slots, the disclosed systems can transmit prioritized-mode-availability indicators to provider devices to indicate varying levels of availability of the prioritized-dispatch mode for the geographic area.

Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method may include matching transportation requests. By collecting and batching match requests over an extended period, a dynamic transportation matching system may identify more efficient matches (e.g., may match transportation requests with greater overlaps). In addition, by dynamically setting and/or extending the upper bound of time that a transportation request may remain batched with other transportation requests, the dynamic transportation matching system may account for contextual information thereby situationally improving matching efficiencies made possible with higher upper bounds while avoiding requestor dissatisfaction, lost conversions, or other inefficiencies that may result from upper bounds that are too high. Furthermore, by providing a notification interface for a transportation requestor device that notifies the requestor when to be ready, a transportation matching application may provide a positive requestor experience while allowing for longer match windows. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract

A system for multiple brakes intelligently controlled by a single brake input on a personal mobility vehicle. By determining a front and rear brake differential based on the position and weight of the rider as well as the environmental and vehicle conditions, the system may reduce the risk of the vehicle skidding or tipping due to over-braking. In some embodiments, a rider may use a single brake lever to indicate a desire to brake and the system may make determinations about how to apply a combination of mechanical and electrical brakes to front and back wheels. By applying different braking systems based on a combination of controls and sensors, the system may improve user experience and user safety, especially for inexperienced riders.

Abstract

Embodiments provide a hardware-based mechanism to continuously calibrate a set of sensors on a vehicle while the vehicle is in motion or in use. Specifically, each sensor is mounted on a respective rigid mounting device placed on the vehicle. A secondary sensing device for calibration is also rigidly mounted on the mounting device such that the relative position between the secondary device and the camera sensor can remain unchanged. The secondary sensing devices can then be used to detect a relative distance and/or position of the same calibration target. The sensed data is then used to determine, via stereo triangulation, the relative positions of the two secondary sensing devices, which in turn indicates the relative positions of the sensors.

Abstract

Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for locating and navigating to the location of a requestor based on proximity between a requestor device and a provider device. For example, embodiments display proximity indicators to allow a provider to quickly, easily, and safely locate a requestor upon arrival near a request location. Further, in some embodiments, graphics associated with a proximity vector may be presented on a provider communication device to clearly display the navigation directions to the provider so that the provider may easily find their matched requestor without requiring additional communication between the provider and the requestor. Additionally, embodiments provide efficient navigation to riders by limiting display of proximity indicators for navigation until the provider is within a threshold distance to the request location to conserve system resources and communication between an on-demand matching system and the provider computing device.

Abstract

Embodiments provide approaches to selectively integrate with various providers. For example, a user in a location where an on-demand provider is available may attempt to utilize services provided by the on-demand provider in a different location where the on-demand provider has limited or no services available, but where one or more other on-demand providers may be available. The user may attempt to access services provided by the on-demand provider using an application provided by the on-demand provider. However, in the situation where the user is in the location where services provided by the on-demand provider are not available, the user would have to secure other means of accessing those services. In such a situation the user may be able to utilize the application to request services with at least one partner on-demand provider.

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for dynamically controlling requestor device queues by monitoring and utilizing the throughput rate of matched provider devices and requestor devices. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems determine throughput rate of matched provider devices and requestor devices in real-time and/or predicts throughput rate utilizing historical features of a particular location. The disclosed systems can generate and provide queue request notifications to requestor devices based on a throughput rate at the location. Specifically, the disclosed systems can monitor a current queue status over time, compare the queue status to a queue threshold, and dynamically generate queue request notifications that reflects throughput-based queue modifiers as the current queue status approaches the queue threshold.

Abstract

The present application discloses systems, methods, and computer-readable media that utilize computing devices to model multi-outcome transportation-value metrics that account for spatio-temporal trajectories across locations, times and other contextual features, and then utilize computer networks to dispatch provider devices to locations based on the multi-outcome transportation-value metrics. Moreover, the disclosed systems can utilize these multi-outcome transportation-value metrics and/or other models to manage and utilize dynamic transportation dispatch modes to more efficiently align provider devices and requestor devices across computer networks. For instance, the disclosed system can dispatch a provider device based on a discounted multi-outcome transportation-value metric. Furthermore, the disclosed system can dynamically determine prioritized dispatch mode provider device slots, fill provider device slots based on performance metrics, and then select provider device from between a prioritized transportation dispatch mode and another transportation dispatch mode based on prioritization metrics corresponding to a transportation request.

Abstract

Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for determining alternate request locations based on a pickup location score (PLoS) of a location associated with transportation request information. A pickup location score may include an objective quantitative measurement of the fitness of a location for a pickup by a provider. For example, embodiments may receive transport request information associated with a requestor computing device including a request location, determine a modified request location based at least on a location score for each of one or more alternate request locations that are within a threshold distance of the request location, and send modified transport request information associated with the modified request location and the first requestor computing device to a provider computing device associated with a matched provider for the transport request information.

Abstract

Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for identifying and matching requestors and providers. For example, embodiments can display an identification pattern that is unique for a matched requestor and provider to allow the providers and requestors to quickly, easily, and accurately validate one another's identities prior to a service being provided. In some embodiments, the identification element may be presented on a provider communication device to clearly display graphics associated with an identification element to all requestors in an area so that the requestors may easily identify a matched provider.

Abstract

This disclosure describes one or more embodiments of methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and systems that utilize computing models to intelligently match provider devices and requester devices in response to event-trigger transportation requests. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems utilize global positioning information to monitor requester device proximity to pickup locations and generate timely transportation matches for event-trigger transportation requests. For example, the event-trigger transportation matching system matches requester devices and provider devices based on the satisfaction of a location trigger; or, conversely, the event-trigger transportation matching system delays matching processes for provider devices based on a location trigger remaining unsatisfied. Indeed, based on the requester device satisfying a threshold ETA and/or a geofence location trigger, the event-trigger transportation matching system utilizes dynamic approaches to match requester devices with provider devices.
