A parking management system that facilitates motorist guidance, payment, violation detection, and enforcement using highly accurate space occupancy detection, unique vehicle identification, guidance displays, payment acceptance, violation detection, enforcement data generation, electronic booting, and towing management is described. The system enables reduced time to find parking, congestion mitigation, accurate violation detection, and easier enforcement, and increased payment and enforcement revenues to cities.

Methods and systems for detecting malfunctioning on-board telematics units in vehicles. A computing device may receive a first and second geofence location for a vehicle from a fleet management system. The computing device may determine whether it received a third location from an on-board telematics unit of the vehicle within a time period between receiving the first geofence location and receiving the second geofence location. The computing device may determine that the on-board telematics unit associated with the vehicle is in a state of anomaly in response to determining that the third location was not received from the on-board telematics unit of the vehicle within a time period between receiving the first geofence location and receiving the second geofence location.

A system for casual driver ride sharing includes an interface and processor. The interface is to receive a request for a ride from a user, wherein the request includes GPS information for the user. The processor is to determine compatibility between the typical route information and the request for the ride; determine a ranked list based at least in part on the compatibility; and provide a ride offer to a driver of the one or more casual drivers based at least in part on the ranked list.

The method includes one or more turnstiles using a non-secure ranging process to detect a proximity of one or more mobile computing devices carried by respective users. The method also includes one of the turnstiles, on making a proximity determination in respect of a first of said mobile computing devices, commencing a secure authentication process to authenticate a user carrying the first mobile computing device. The method further includes, in response to a determination that the user carrying the first mobile computing device has been authenticated, allowing the user carrying the first mobile computing device to pass through the turnstile.

A personal mobility sharing service providing method is implemented by a server for executing the method. The server includes: a communication device configured to communicate with device terminals mounted on personal mobility devices managed by the server and user terminals of users using the personal mobility sharing services; and a control device configured to acquire device state information on the personal mobility devices through the device terminals, acquire use state information of respective users on the personal mobility devices through the user terminals, and when generation of at least one voice of customer (VOC) to a first user is predicted based on the use state information and the device state information, transmit first guide information on the at least one VOC to a first user terminal of the first user.

A total terminal system includes a front-seat total terminal provided in a front driver compartment of a taxi vehicle and a rear-seat total terminal provided in a rear passenger compartment of the taxi vehicle. The front-seat total terminal includes an application program device configured to execute a plurality of application programs and a data management device including a plurality of service data storage units configured to store data for providing a plurality of services, wherein a first application program among the plurality of application programs is configured to write first information to a corresponding first service data storage unit among the plurality of service data storage units and the first service data storage unit is configured to transmit the first information to a second application program that is connected to the first service data storage unit.
