Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for providing a model of a vehicle to a rider. In an embodiment, the systems and methods determine that a driver has accepted a task to operate a vehicle from a first location to a rider location. The systems and methods then access a model corresponding to the vehicle, determine a direction of movement of the vehicle, and determine a relative orientation of the vehicle with respect to the rider based on the first location, the direction of movement of the vehicle, and the rider location. The systems and methods generate for display, on a client device of the rider, the model at an angle determined based on the relative orientation.
