Navigation and routing based on image data

Abstract:

A computing system can receive image data corresponding to an image of a passenger interior of the vehicle from a computing device of a vehicle or a driver. Using the image data, the computing system can determine at least one of (i) a first route for the vehicle or the driver to travel to a start location of a requesting user, or (ii) a second route for the requesting user to travel to the start location. The computing system may then transmit at least one of (i) navigation instructions based on the first route to the computing device of the vehicle or the driver, or (ii) navigation instructions based on the second route to a computing device of the requesting user.
