Lighted vehicle beaconing systems and methods

Abstract:

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide lighted vehicle beaconing, particularly for micro-mobility fleet vehicles. A lighted vehicle beaconing system includes a vehicle light assembly configured to be coupled to and/or integrated with a micro-mobility fleet vehicle and a logic device configured to communicate with the vehicle light assembly. The vehicle light assembly includes a programmable light element configured to receive a lighting control sequence and generate a multicolored and/or animated lighting sequence corresponding to the received lighting control sequence. The logic device is configured to determine the lighting control sequence and to generate the multicolored and/or animated lighting sequence by providing the lighting control sequence to the programmable light element of the vehicle light assembly.
