摘要: Systems and methods for determining appropriate energy replenishment and controlling autonomous vehicles are provided. An example computer-implemented method can include obtaining one or more energy parameters associated with an autonomous vehicle. The method can include determining a refueling task for the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the energy parameters associated with the autonomous vehicle. The refueling task comprises a first refueling task that is interruptible by a vehicle service assignment or a second refueling task that is not interruptible by the vehicle service assignment. The method can include communicating data indicative of the refueling task to the autonomous vehicle or to a second computing system that manages the autonomous vehicle. The method can include determining whether the refueling task for the autonomous vehicle has been accepted or rejected.

摘要: Various examples described herein are directed to systems and methods for dispatching trips to a plurality of autonomous vehicles. For example, a dispatch system may access trip result data describing a plurality of trips executed by a set of autonomous vehicles of a first vehicle type. The dispatch system may determine a first routing constraint for autonomous vehicles of the first vehicle type using the trip result data and select an autonomous vehicle to execute a first new trip using the first routing constraint. The dispatch system may send a request to execute the first new trip to the selected autonomous vehicle.

摘要: Systems and methods for autonomous vehicle operations are provided. An example computer-implemented method includes obtaining data indicative of vehicle fleet feature(s) associated with an autonomous vehicle fleet. The method includes obtaining data indicative of a vehicle service request associated with a user, the vehicle service request indicating a request for a vehicle service. The method includes determining user feature(s) associated with the user. The method includes determining a compatibility of the user and the autonomous vehicle fleet for the vehicle service based at least in part on the fleet feature(s) and the user feature(s). Determining the compatibility can include predicting how the autonomous vehicle fleet will perform the vehicle service associated with the vehicle service request based at least in part on the fleet's autonomy capabilities. The method includes communicating data associated with the vehicle service request to a computing system associated with the autonomous vehicle fleet.

摘要: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for dispatching autonomous vehicles. A service arrangement system may receive error data describing an error state at a first autonomous vehicle executing a first transportation service. The first transportation service may include moving a payload from a transportation service start point to a transportation service end point. The service arrangement system may determine, using the error data, a first property of the first autonomous vehicle associated with the error state and select a second autonomous vehicle that does not have the first property. The service arrangement system may send to the second autonomous vehicle a transportation service request requesting that the second autonomous vehicle travel to a rendezvous location to meet the first autonomous vehicle and transport the payload from the rendezvous location to the transportation service end point.

摘要: Systems and methods are directed to improvements for secure communications between client systems and a vehicle integration platform associated with a service provider entity. In one example, a communication infrastructure is provided which includes a vehicle integration platform that includes a plurality of application programming interfaces configured to facilitate communication among clients. The communication infrastructure includes a security integration system which is configured to receive and validate a client certificate forwarded to the vehicle integration platform from a client and determine an identity of the client and an origin of a request associated with the client certificate. The security integration system is configured to generate a certificate signing request associated with the client certificate based in part on the identity of the client and obtain an operational certificate for the client based in part on the certificate signing request to establish ability for client authentication within the vehicle integration platform.

摘要: Systems and methods are provided for finding an available pickup/drop-off zone (PDZ) for an autonomous vehicle (AV) to use to pick up a passenger. A PDZ is selected that is likely to be available and that is within a reasonable walking distance of a passenger. The AV and the passenger are guided to the available PDZ. In selecting the available PDZ, the system balances the human and vehicle routing by taking into account the distance possible PDZs are from the passenger, the likelihood the respective PDZs will be available, the passenger's desire/ability to walk to the respective PDZs (e.g., due to physical limitations, weather, etc.), the driving time of the AV to the respective PDZs, the walking time of the passenger to the respective PDZs, and the like.

摘要: Systems and methods for multi-autonomous vehicle servicing and control are provided. A method can include receiving a service request for a vehicle service. For example, the service request can include a start location and an end location. The method can include determining a vehicle route from the start location to the end location. The method can include identifying a plurality of candidate vehicles from a plurality of autonomous vehicles. For example, each candidate vehicle in the plurality of candidate vehicles can be available to perform at least one portion of the vehicle route. The method can include obtaining data indicative of one or more operational capabilities for each candidate vehicle in the plurality of autonomous vehicles. The method can include segmenting the vehicle route into one or more route segments based on the one or more operational capabilities associated with each autonomous vehicle in the plurality of autonomous vehicles. The method can include assigning at least two candidate vehicles to perform the vehicle service by assigning at least one of the one or more route segments to each of the at least two candidate vehicle. And, the method can include communicating data indicative of the service request to the at least two candidate vehicles. In this manner, multi-autonomous vehicle services can be provided to fulfill a vehicle service request.

摘要: Systems and methods for enabling communication between a service entity and third-party autonomous vehicles are provided. A method can include accessing, by a first computing system associated with a third-party entity, a software package stored within the first computing system. The software package can be associated with a service entity that coordinates a vehicle service for the one or more autonomous vehicles. The method can further include establishing, by the first computing system via the software package, a communication connection with a second computing system that is associated with the service entity. The second computing system can include one or more backend services to facilitate the vehicle service. The method can further include communicating, between the first computing system and the second computing system, data indicative of a communication associated with the one or more autonomous vehicles via the communication connection.
