The disclosure also relates to a method of providing a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) in which the flight vehicle is used.

Flight vehicle and MaaS provision method

A control unit of an information processing apparatus determines, upon determining that a demand for parking in a parking lot is low based on a comparison between a score indicating the demand and a predetermined first threshold value, to set a first area to a parking prohibited state. The first area is at least a part of the parking lot.

Information processing apparatus, method, and non-transitory storage medium thereof for controlling light source embedded in parking lot

An information processing system includes: a collection/delivery request portion configured to notify, to a terminal of a carrier who collects or delivers a package, information on a collection/delivery area where the package is requested to be collected or delivered; a vehicle detection portion configured to detect that the delivery vehicle has moved into the collection/delivery area; and a collection/delivery management portion configured to, when the vehicle detection portion detects that the delivery vehicle has moved into the collection/delivery area, notify the terminal of the carrier of information on a parking position of a collection/delivery destination vehicle.

Information processing system and information processing method

A control apparatus includes a controller configured to: acquire energy information indicating a method of generating power that is stored in a battery of a vehicle; determine a usage fee for the vehicle based on the acquired energy information; and notify a user of the usage fee for the vehicle.

Control apparatus, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

An information processing device includes: an acquirer configured to acquire movement information on movement of a vehicle where a user is not on board, the movement information including position information of a movement destination; a storage configured to store the movement information of the vehicle that is acquired by the acquirer; and a controller configured to: generate route information indicating time-series positions of the vehicle based on the movement information stored in the storage; and transmit the route information to an information terminal of the user.

Information processing device, route information providing method, and route information providing system

An information processing apparatus includes: a communication interface; and one or more processors configured to when determining that a degree of dirt of a vehicle exceeds a predetermined first threshold value, select at least one vehicle washing facility from among a plurality of vehicle washing facilities, based on an attribute of a user of the vehicle, and notify the user of guidance information for guiding the user to the selected vehicle washing facility via the communication interface.

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

A plan proposal device includes a controller configured to predict, as a user action, an action of a first user in a certain period, including parking a vehicle in a parking lot shared by a plurality of users including the first user, generate proposal data for proposing an action plan in the certain period based on an obtained prediction result and information on the parking lot in the certain period, and output the generated proposal data.

Plan proposal device, system, vehicle, and plan proposal method

A vehicle management device includes one or more processors configured to: manage a plurality of vehicles to be provided for users in a car sharing service; manage, as a plurality of first vehicles, a part of the vehicles to be allocated to an on-demand use in which the users use the car sharing service without reservation; manage, as a plurality of second vehicles, a part of the vehicles to be allocated to a reservation use in which the users use the car sharing service with the reservation; and change at least one of the second vehicles to the first vehicles when the number of the first vehicles is less than a first predetermined number.

Vehicle management device, vehicle management method, vehicle management system, and vehicle

An automated valet parking system enables a plurality of charging parking frames in a parking place to be utilized and reduces inconvenience to an EV user using an automated valet parking service. The management device acquires a vehicle usage schedule and a remaining charge amount of each EV and determines a parking frame usage schedule of a charging parking frame. Specifically, with respect to an EV scheduled to be used on the next day, the management device assigns a charging parking frame closer to the departure/arrival place to an EV having earlier use start time on the next day. With respect to an EV not scheduled to be used on the next day and an EV whose usage schedule is unknown, the management device assigns a charging parking frame farther from the departure/arrival place to an EV with smaller remaining charge amount.

Automated valet parking system, method for providing automated valet parking service, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

An automated valet parking (AVP) management system manages an AVP service delivered in a predetermined area. A pick-up or drop-off point is away from a parking facility in which a vehicle is parked. When it is not possible to deliver the AVP service to a user in accordance with a user request, notification information is delivered to the user. The notification information includes at least one of: a congestion situation on a route from a current position of the vehicle to a specified pick-up or drop-off point; a congestion situation at the specified pick-up or drop-off point; a waiting time for the user to get on or off the vehicle at the specified pick-up or drop-off point; a recommended time of day of use at the specified pick-up or drop-off point; and a substitute pick-up or drop-off point being a substitute for the specified pick-up or drop-off point.

Automated valet parking management system and automated valet parking management method

A control apparatus includes a communication unit configured to receive motion data indicating motion of at least one user outside a vehicle that moves along a route including at least one road, and a controller configured to make a boarding determination of determining whether the at least one user will board the vehicle based on the motion data received by the communication unit and execute, upon determining in the boarding determination that the at least one user will board the vehicle, control for opening a door of the vehicle.

Control apparatus, system, vehicle, and control method

An operation management unit includes a controller that presents, to a user, a guidance that varies depending on whether a given vehicle stops at at least one stop at which a user is waiting, among a plurality of stops, with respect to each of a plurality of vehicles that travels along a route including one or more roads and the stops, and stops at one or more stops determined for each of the vehicles, among the stops.

Operation management unit and operation management method

A management device of an automated valet parking system predicts a usage schedule of an automated valet parking service used by a user from usage history information about a usage history of the automated valet parking service used by the user. Then, the management device determines a parking position of a vehicle of the user among multiple parking lots with reference to the predicted usage schedule.

Automated valet parking system, and method for providing automated valet parking service

An information processing apparatus communicable with the vehicle includes one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to: detect the vehicle before parking; determine the characteristic of the detected vehicle or the characteristic of a driver of the vehicle; set a parking frame for the vehicle in accordance with the characteristic; and transmit information indicating the parking frame to the vehicle.
