Patent Images
1. A computer implemented method comprising:
- receiving vehicle destination input;
determining a business located at the destination;
selecting and delivering a survey, related to the business, to a vehicle occupant over a vehicle audio system while the user travels to the destination;
collecting survey results from the vehicle occupant using a vehicle-based input;
relaying the survey results to a remote server for processing; and
providing a digital reward to a participating occupant.

Abstract
A transport facilitation can identify a mass egress area within a given region and receive a pick-up request from a rider device within the mass egress area. In response to receiving the pick-up request, the transport facilitation system transmit a match code to the rider device. The system may then receive an indication of the match code from a driver device, the indication signifying a pick-up event between a requesting user of the rider device and an available driver of the driver device within the mass egress area, and record a state for both the rider device and the driver device indicating an initiation of a ride to a destination of the requesting user.

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing system, cause the computing system to:
-
communicate, over one or more networks, with (i) a rider application executing on computing devices of users of a transport service, and (ii) a driver application executing on computing devices of drivers of the transport service; receive, over the one or more networks, a pick-up request from the rider application executing on a computing device of a requesting user within a given region; in response to receiving the pick-up request, transmit, over the one or more networks, a match code to the rider application executing on the computing device of the requesting user; receive, over the one or more networks, data indicating the match code from the driver application executing on a computing device of an available driver, the received data signifying a pick-up event between the requesting user and the available driver within the mass given region; and record a state for both the requesting user and the available driver indicating an initiation of a ride to a destination of the requesting user.

13. A computer-implemented method of implementing a transport service for a given region, the method being performed by one or more processors and comprising:
-
communicating, over one or more networks, with (i) a rider application executing on computing devices of users of the transport service, and (ii) a driver application executing on computing devices of drivers of the transport service; receiving, over the one or more networks, a pick-up request from the rider application executing on a computing device of a requesting user within the given region; in response to receiving the pick-up request, transmitting, over the one or more networks, a match code to the rider application executing on the computing device of the requesting user; receiving, over the one or more networks, data indicating the match code from the driver application executing on a computing device of an available driver, the received data signifying a pick-up event between the requesting user and the available driver within the given region; and recording a state for both the requesting user and the available driver indicating an initiation of a ride to a destination of the requesting user. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
