Sensor-based automated transit maintenance system
First Claim
1. A transit maintenance system comprising:
- a plurality of sensors located at a plurality of transit locations within a transit system, wherein the plurality of sensors are configured to collect a plurality of sensor measurements of at least one transit location device;
a transit server comprising one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform operations comprising;
receiving sensor data comprising the plurality of sensor measurements;
determining, based on the sensor data, that a current or future defect exists within the transit system;
determining a transit location of the plurality of transit locations at which the defect is located;
generating virtual and non-virtual maintenance instructions for addressing the defect; and
sending the non-virtual maintenance instructions to a portable electronic device and the virtual maintenance instructions to one of the at least one transit location device at the transit location; and
a display device located at the transit location, wherein the display device is configured to display a scannable code such that the portable electronic device is configured to access the virtual maintenance instructions upon reading the scannable code.

Abstract
Systems and methods for implementing a sensor-based transit maintenance system. A plurality of sensors are located at a plurality of transit locations within a transit system. The plurality of sensors are configured to collect a plurality of sensor measurements of at least one transit location device. A transit server may receive sensor data comprising the plurality of sensor measurements. The transit server may determine, based on the sensor data, that a current or future defect exists within the transit system. The transit server may determine a transit location of the plurality of transit locations at which the defect is located. The transit server may generate maintenance instructions for addressing the defect and send the maintenance instructions either to a portable electronic device or to one of the at least one transit location device at the transit location.
