Passenger health screening and monitoring
Among other things, techniques are described for screening and monitoring the health of a vehicle user including receiving sensor data produced by a sensor at the vehicle, processing the sensor data to determine at least one health condition of the user of the vehicle, and in response to determining the at least one health condition, executing a vehicle function selected from a plurality of vehicle functions based on the at least one health condition.
1. A vehicle, comprising:
a sensor configured to produce sensor data related to a user of the vehicle;
a computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions; and
a processor communicatively coupled to the sensor and the computer-readable media, the processor configured to execute the computer executable instructions to perform operations including:
receiving the sensor data produced by the sensor while the user is outside of the vehicle;
processing the sensor data to determine at least one health condition of the user; and
in response to determining the at least one health condition, executing a vehicle function selected from a plurality of vehicle functions based on the at least one health condition,
wherein executing the vehicle function comprises determining whether to allow the user to enter the vehicle based on the at least one health condition, and
causing another vehicle to be routed to a location of the user in response to determining not to allow the user to enter the vehicle.
2. The vehicle of claim 1 , the operations including:
processing the sensor data to identify data indicative of a cough by the user; and
analyzing the data indicative of the cough to determine the at least one health condition of the user.
3. The vehicle of claim 1 , the operations including:
processing the sensor data to identify data indicative of motion by the user; and
analyzing the data indicative of the motion to determine the at least one health condition of the user.
4. The vehicle of claim 1 , the operations including: processing the sensor data to identify data indicative of a pathogen within the vehicle; and analyzing the data indicative of the pathogen to determine the at least one health condition of the user.
5. The vehicle of claim 1 , the operations including:
processing the sensor data to determine a body temperature of the user; and
determining the at least one health condition of the user based on the body temperature.
6. The vehicle of claim 1 , the operations including:
processing the sensor data to determine a facial feature of the user; and
determining the at least one health condition of the user based on the facial feature.
7. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle is configured to navigate from a starting location to a destination location along a trajectory, and wherein executing the vehicle function comprises altering at least one of the trajectory or the destination location of the vehicle.
8. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises altering a driving style of the vehicle.
9. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises:
identifying a stopping location for the vehicle; and
navigating the vehicle to the stopping location.
10. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises adjusting an arrangement of a seat in the vehicle occupied by the user.
11. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises engaging a partition screen within the vehicle.
12. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises altering airflow within the vehicle.
13. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle includes a first aid component, and wherein executing the vehicle function comprises dispensing the first aid component to the user.
14. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises transmitting an alert to the user, the alert including information indicative of the at least one health condition.
15. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises transmitting an alert to an emergency service, the alert including information indicative of at least one of a location of the vehicle or the at least one health condition of the user.
16. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle includes a disinfectant component, and wherein executing the vehicle function comprises activating the disinfectant component within the vehicle.
17. The vehicle of claim 1 , the operations further including:
receiving historical sensor data associated with the user; and
processing the sensor data and the historical sensor data to determine the at least one health condition of the user.
18. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises transmitting a request to a health authority to allow the vehicle to operate in an emergency services mode to navigate to an emergency services provider.
19. The vehicle of claim 18 , wherein operating in the emergency services mode comprises at least one of using lanes designated for emergency vehicles or controlling traffic lights on a route to the emergency services provider.
20. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein executing the vehicle function comprises determining whether to allow the user to enter the vehicle based on the at least one health condition and at least one of a number of people within the vehicle or a location of the vehicle.
21. A method comprising:
receiving sensor data produced by a sensor at a vehicle while a user is outside of the vehicle;
processing the sensor data to determine at least one health condition of the user of the vehicle; and
in response to determining the at least one health condition, executing a vehicle function selected from a plurality of vehicle functions based on the at least one health condition,
wherein executing the vehicle function comprises determining whether to allow the user to enter the vehicle based on the at least one health condition, and
causing another vehicle to be routed to a location of the user in response to determining not to allow the user to enter the vehicle.
22. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising one or more programs for execution by one or more processors of a device, the one or more programs including instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the device to:
receive sensor data produced by a sensor at a vehicle while a user is outside of the vehicle;
process the sensor data to determine at least one health condition of the user of the vehicle; and
in response to determining the at least one health condition, execute a vehicle function selected from a plurality of vehicle functions based on the at least one health condition,
wherein executing the vehicle function comprises determining whether to allow the user to enter the vehicle based on the at least one health condition, and
cause another vehicle to be routed to a location of the user in response to determining not to allow the user to enter the vehicle.
