Pre-transit and post-transit facilitation of in-vehicle services
First Claim
1. A method of facilitating provisioning of content items by an in-vehicle computer system on a vehicle, the method being implemented by a computer system that includes one or more physical processors executing one or more computer program instructions which, when executed, perform the method, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by the computer system, trip-identifying information relating to a passenger that is associated with a user-provided device, wherein the trip-identifying information identifies a trip that is to occur on the vehicle;
determining, by the computer system, based on the trip-identifying information, a list of content items that are available for the trip;
providing, by the computer system, the list of content items to the user-provided device;
receiving, by the computer system, from the user-provided device, a selection of at least one content item;
determining, by the computer system, that a current time is within a predetermined pre-boarding time period associated with the trip; and
causing, by the computer system, the at least one content item to be provided to the user-provided device before a predetermined boarding time responsive to the selection and based on the determination that the current time is within the predetermined pre-boarding time period associated with the trip,wherein the at least one content item is pre-loaded onto the user-provided device before the predetermined boarding time but is not accessible for playback at the user-provided device until at least the predetermined boarding time, andwherein playback access of the at least one content item via the user-provided device is enabled based on a determination that a current time has at least reached the predetermined boarding time.

Abstract
An approach to facilitating provisioning of in-vehicle services is provided. Trip-identifying information may be obtained from a user-provided device. The trip-identifying information may identify a trip that is to occur on the vehicle. A list of in-vehicle services, which are available for the trip on the vehicle, may be determined based on the trip-identifying information. The list of in-vehicle services may be provided to the user-provided device. A selection of at least one in-vehicle service that is to be provided during the trip may be received from the user-provided device. A request for the at least one in-vehicle service may be generated based on the selection.

5. A system for facilitating provisioning of content items by an in-vehicle computer system on a vehicle, the system comprising:
one or more physical processors programmed with one or more computer program instructions which, when executed, cause the one or more physical processors to; obtain trip-identifying information relating to a passenger that is associated with a user-provided device, wherein the trip-identifying information identifies a trip that is to occur on the vehicle; determine, based on the trip-identifying information, a list of content items that are available for the trip; provide the list of content items to the user-provided device; receive, from the user-provided device, a selection of at least one content item; determine that a current time is within a predetermined pre-boarding time period associated with the trip; and cause the at least one content item to be provided to the user-provided device before a predetermined boarding time responsive to the selection and based on the determination that the current time is within the predetermined pre-boarding time period associated with the trip, wherein the at least one content item is pre-loaded onto the user-provided device before the predetermined boarding time but is not accessible for playback at the user-provided device until at least the predetermined boarding time, and wherein playback access of the at least one content item via the user-provided device is enabled based on a determination that a current time has at least reached the predetermined boarding time. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14)
