Abstract:
Provided herein is a platform for distributing and navigating an autonomous or semi-autonomous fleet throughout a plurality of pathways. The platform may employ demand distribution prediction algorithms, and interim repositioning algorithms to distribute the autonomous or semi-autonomous fleet for performing orders and tasks.

Claim (Index 1):
A platform for distributing and navigating an autonomous or semi-autonomous fleet throughout a plurality of pathways, the platform comprising:\n a) the fleet comprising a plurality of autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles wherein each autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle comprises:\n (i) an autonomous or semi-autonomous propulsion system; \n (ii) a locational sensor configured to measure a current vehicle location of the vehicle; \n (iii) a condition sensor configured to measure a current vehicle status; and \n (iv) a communication device configured to transmit the current vehicle location and the current vehicle status; and \n b) a server processor configured to provide a server application comprising:\n (i) a database comprising a map of the plurality of pathways, wherein each pathway is associated with a pathway parameter comprising an autonomous driving safety factor and a speed factor; \n (ii) a communication module receiving the current vehicle location and the current vehicle status from the communication device; \n (iii) a dispatch module assigning one or more of the plurality of autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles to a task destination based at least on the current vehicle location and the current vehicle status; and \n (iv) a navigation module applying a route calculation algorithm to determine a vehicle task route from the current vehicle location to the task destination based at least on the pathway parameter and the current vehicle status, wherein the vehicle task route comprises at least a portion of one of the plurality of pathways;\n wherein the communication device further directs the autonomous or semi-autonomous propulsion system of the autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle based on the vehicle task route.
