Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include tracking personal mobility vehicle batteries. In some embodiments, the method may track and maintain battery power for personal mobility vehicles to help to ensure that there are personal mobility vehicles with sufficient charge available to perform the needed transportation tasks within a dynamic transportation network. In some examples, a swappable battery for a personal mobility vehicle may communicate with a dynamic transportation management system and provide information about current and/or historical charge information. In some examples, the method may use the current state of charge and/or historical charge information to predict the performance of the battery. Based on the predicted performance, the method may predict the range of a personal mobility vehicles with the battery and/or a lifespan of the battery and make matching decisions accordingly. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
