An in-vehicle terminal mounted in a vehicle includes a controller configured to: transmit a radio signal indicating that it is possible to share a ride in the vehicle; upon receipt of the radio signal from a user terminal that has received the radio signal, transmit information relating to the vehicle to the user terminal; and receive information indicating a result of determination of whether or not a user of the user terminal can join the ride in the vehicle, the determination being made using the information relating to the vehicle, from the user terminal.

In-vehicle terminal and ride-sharing control method

A control unit of a server device as an information processing apparatus is configured to: provide first information on a service for each of a plurality of moving objects, each of which is configured to provide a different service and autonomous travel; acquire second information on time and location of at least one service that a user wants to use; and determine at least one moving object that matches with the user based on the first information and the second information, and generate a travel plan of the at least one moving object.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method and non-transitory storage medium

An information processing device includes: a server transmitting and receiving unit configured to receive location information indicating a location of a vehicle from an on-board device mounted on the vehicle; and a server control unit configured to when the vehicle is traveling in an area that the vehicle has visited a predetermined number of times or less, extract a facility that faces a first road located within a predetermined range based on the location information and having traffic capacity equal to or larger than a predetermined threshold, wherein the server transmitting and receiving unit is configured to send advertisement information of the facility to the on-board device.

Information processing device and method for distributing information of a facility that faces a road having a predetermined traffic capacity

A vehicle soundproofing structure includes: a soundproofing mechanism configured to suppress sound from leaking outside from a vehicle by absorbing, dissipating, or cancelling sound inside a vehicle cabin, and a controller configured to enable operation of the soundproofing mechanism when the vehicle is stationary, and to disable operation of the soundproofing mechanism when the vehicle is travelling.

Vehicle soundproofing structure

An information processing device includes a control unit configured to execute acquiring a crowding level of a destination store that is a destination of a vehicle in which a user rides, extracting a store with a crowding level lower than the crowding level of the destination store as a predetermined recommended store from among other stores that belong to the same genre as the destination store and that do not belong to the same affiliated group as the destination store when the crowding level of the destination store is higher than a predetermined threshold value, generating a proposal advertisement for proposing to change the destination of the vehicle from the destination store to the predetermined recommended store, and presenting the proposal advertisement to the user who rides in the vehicle via a mobile terminal that moves with the vehicle.

Information processing device, information processing method, and non-transitory storage medium

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a controller configured to execute: determining whether to change a scheduled riding vehicle for a first user or not based on predetermined position information related to a first user's riding a first vehicle, before a scheduled time on which the first user is to board the first vehicle which the first user is scheduled to board at a first boarding place; extracting one or more candidate vehicles serving as alternative candidates for the first vehicle, when it is determined to change the scheduled riding vehicle for the first user; and changing the scheduled riding vehicle for the first user from the first vehicle to a second vehicle that is one of the one or more candidate vehicles, based on an approval by the first user.

Information processing apparatus, riding vehicle adjusting method, and riding vehicle adjusting program

An automobile, includes: a table stowed at a ceiling of a vehicle cabin; and a table raising and lowering apparatus configured to, resulting from a predetermined operation, raise and lower the table between a usage position at a seat front side of a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat and a stowage position at which the table is stowed at the ceiling.

Automobile

A vehicle includes a steering wheel that can move between a driving position in which an occupant operates the steering wheel and a table position in which a wheel axis is oriented in a vehicle vertical direction. The steering wheel in the table position functions as a table or a part of a table for use by the occupant, who is sitting in a driver's seat.

Vehicle

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a controller configured to execute: accepting an alighting request to allow a first user to alight at a place other than a travel destination of the first user while a first vehicle allows the first user to ride and travels; performing determination of an alighting place where the first user is allowed to alight, and extraction of one or more candidate vehicles capable of allowing the first user to board at a boarding place that is a place identical to the alighting place or a place adjacent thereto, according to the alighting request; and notifying a request for the first user's reboarding at the boarding place, to a second vehicle that is one of the one or more candidate vehicles, based on an approval by the first user.

There is provided a vehicle optical view-shielding structure including: an optical view-shielding device that is capable of optically shielding a window when a vehicle is stationary, such that a vehicle interior is rendered difficult to see from outside the vehicle; an external detection device that detects an approaching object approaching the vehicle; and a notification device that issues a notification inside the vehicle notifying that the approaching object has been detected by the external detection device.

Vehicle optical view-shielding structure

A sound output and text display device for a vehicle, including: an output unit that, in a case in which sound to be output inside the vehicle has been decided, outputs the sound inside the vehicle; and a display unit that displays text corresponding to the sound on a windshield in accordance with a state of use of the vehicle.

Sound output and text display device for a vehicle

A vehicle display device includes: one or more display devices configured to: display a main image on a vehicle cabin interior side of a front windshield in a non-occupant-driven state; and display a sub image corresponding to a content of the main image on an instrument panel in the non-occupant-driven state.

Vehicle display device

An in-car status notification system that detects that a situation requiring attention has arisen in which a child is alone inside an automobile by using at least one of a plurality of sensors or a camera; detects positional information of the automobile; and in cases in which the situation requiring attention has been detected, sends notification of the automobile positional information and situation requiring attention detected information indicating a child is alone in the automobile to at least a pre-set first mobile phone and a pre-set second mobile phone.
