For example, the flow 200 may be stored in a storage device (e.g., a processing device's own memory unit or external storage device) in the form of a program or instructions that, when executed, may implement the flow 200. The process 200 may include the following operations.

Step 210, obtaining location information of a reserved vehicle. In some embodiments, step 210 may be performed by the first acquisition module 510.

The reserved vehicle refers to a vehicle reserved by a user initiating a service request to an online-to-offline service system through a user terminal. In some implementations, the reservation vehicle may be an autonomous vehicle or a net-bound vehicle. The autonomous vehicle may be a fully autonomous vehicle or a semi-autonomous vehicle.

The location information of the reservation vehicle refers to a real-time location of the reservation vehicle. The location information may be represented by global positioning system (Global Positioning System, GPS) coordinates, or may be represented by other means, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In some embodiments, the user terminal may obtain location information of the reservation vehicle via a positioning device, such as a GPS locator, mounted on the reservation vehicle. In some embodiments, the user terminal may receive location information of the reservation vehicle from a server through a network.

Step 220, the location information is sent to a server, so that the server can judge whether the location information meets the preset condition. In some embodiments, step 220 may be performed by the first transmission module 520.

The preset conditions may include whether the real-time position of the reservation vehicle has changed, whether the distance between the real-time position of the reservation vehicle and the position of the boarding point in the order for reservation travel is less than a threshold (e.g., less than 100m, less than 50m, etc.), whether the reservation vehicle has arrived at the boarding point in the order for reservation travel, etc.

In some embodiments, the user terminal may periodically (e.g., every 1 second, every 5 seconds, etc.) acquire the location information of the reserved vehicle and determine whether a preset condition is satisfied based on the acquired location information. For example, the user terminal may compare the position information of the reserved vehicle acquired at the current time with the position information acquired last time, and consider that the reserved vehicle is in a moving state if the position information is different. For another example, the user terminal may represent the location information and the get-on point in the form of coordinates, determine the distance between the reserved vehicle and the get-on point by calculating the difference between the coordinates, and further determine whether the location information meets the preset condition according to the distance.

And step 230, displaying a first interaction identifier on the user terminal under the condition that the preset condition is met. In some embodiments, step 230 may be performed by the first display module 530.

The interactive identifier refers to information such as an icon and a label for identifying the reserved vehicle. The first interactive identifier refers to an interactive identifier displayed on the user terminal. The first interactive identification corresponds to a second interactive identification displayed by a display device of the reservation vehicle, which may be used to identify the reservation vehicle. The user can know the second interactive identification displayed on the reserved vehicle through the first interactive identification displayed on the user terminal so as to search the vehicle through the second interactive identification.

The corresponding means that the content or meaning of the first interactive identifier is the same as that of the second interactive identifier, for example, in the process of receiving and driving a XX vehicle, the content of the second interactive identifier is also in the process of receiving and driving a XX vehicle, wherein XX can be license plate information, the 4-bit tail number of a mobile phone of Mr. X or XX lady of a person to be received, driver name and the like.

In some embodiments, the first interactive identity may be in a different form than the second interactive identity, e.g., the first interactive identity is a static word and the second interactive identity is a scrolling word, although in a different form, the content and meaning of the identity is the same. It should be noted that, the content or meaning of the interactive identifier may also be understood as the display feature of the interactive identifier, and for further description of the display feature of the interactive identifier, reference may be made to the related descriptions of fig. 3 and fig. 4.

In some embodiments, the first interactive identification and the second interactive identification may include a text identification, an image identification, and a dynamic identification. In some embodiments, the first interactive identification and the second interactive identification may also be voice identifications, for example, "a passenger with a mobile phone tail number of XXXX, a vehicle for which you have reserved has arrived" voice. The voice can be remotely controlled to broadcast or not, for example, after the reserved vehicle arrives at the boarding point, the driver controls the voice equipment of the voice vehicle to broadcast the voice; the user terminal can also send prompt information to the user to prompt that the vehicle arrives, and provide the user with an option of whether to broadcast voice, and the user can autonomously select whether to broadcast voice.

The character identification means that the content of the identification is characters. For example, the second interaction is identified as welcome a passenger with a mobile phone tail number of XXXX to ride the XX vehicle. The image identification means that the identified content is an image. For example, the second interaction is identified as a logo icon of a service platform of the reserved vehicle. Dynamic identification refers to the content of the identification being motion variant. Dynamically identified content may include scrolling, blinking, animation, special effects, video, and the like. For example, the dynamically identified content may be text displayed in a scrolling, blinking, fading, or the like manner. For another example, the content dynamically displayed may be a passenger-receiving GIF picture, a holiday special effect animation, a colored egg, or a custom content uploaded by a user, etc., which are set by an online-to-offline service platform. For another example, the content dynamically displayed may be a promotional video, a ride on video, etc. preset by the platform. The interactive identification is displayed in the form of video, and the voice information can be synchronously played through the audio equipment of the reserved vehicle. It should be noted that, in this specification, the descriptions of the first interaction identifier and the second interaction identifier may refer to each other, and the description of the first interaction identifier is not repeated here.

In some embodiments, the first interactive identification displayed on the user terminal (e.g., user terminal 130) may include different colors, text, animation, etc. If the user experiences the interactive identification function for the first time, the user terminal can also check the function introduction of the interactive identification so as to better find the reserved vehicle by means of the interactive identification.

In some embodiments, the user terminal may receive the function introduction information of the interaction identifier sent by the server, and display the function introduction information of the interaction identifier to the user for browsing. The interactive identification function introduction information may be transmitted when the server determines that the subscriber is first using the interactive identification function. In some embodiments, the server may determine whether the user is first used by reserving the user data of the user, for example, look up the historical order data of the user, and if no installed driving lamp or display screen is installed on the traveling vehicle in the historical order data, the user may consider that the traveling vehicle is first used; for another example, when the reservation user opens the application of the online interactive identification function for the first time, it is determined to be used for the first time, and so on.

In some embodiments, the function introduction information may also be pre-stored at the user terminal and presented to the user at an appropriate time, such as when the user first uses the function, when the user indicates that a function introduction is required, or upon instruction from a server.

The function introduction information may refer to profile information of the function, the usage mode, etc. of the interactive identification. The user terminal can directly pop up the function introduction information of the interactive mark in the modes of popup window, bubble and the like, can also display a function introduction information entry, and can be checked by clicking the function introduction information entry. The function introduction information may include colors of interactive logos, text prompts, etc. Illustratively, the display content of the function introduction information on the display interface of the user terminal may be as shown in table 1 below.
