A vehicle equipped with a plurality of omni-directional wheels includes a grounding part that supports the vehicle by grounding to a ground surface, a moving mechanism to protrude the grounding part from the bottom of the vehicle toward the ground surface, and a controller for controlling the moving mechanism so as to ground said grounding part to the ground surface. The controller is configured to control the moving mechanism so as to ground the grounding part to the ground surface when the vehicle is detected to have stopped.

Vehicle equipped with omni-directional wheels

A delivery vehicle includes: a main body portion equipped with a moving mechanism; and a control section provided at the main body portion, wherein the control section includes: an autonomous driving executing section that controls the moving mechanism and makes it possible for the main body portion to travel autonomously; a destination information acquiring section that acquires information relating to a delivery destination or a collection destination of a package; a data transmitting section transmitting predetermined data for authentication to a management system that manages a secure area on a delivery path; and a data acquiring section that, in a case in which the data for authentication is authenticated by the management system, acquires area information including map information of the secure area from the management system.

Delivery vehicle

A control system for a vehicle includes a camera mounted on the vehicle and configured to take an image of an occupant of the vehicle, and an anti-droplet protective equipment providing device mounted on the vehicle and configured to provide anti-droplet protective equipment to the occupant, a determination unit configured to determine whether the occupant is wearing the anti-droplet protective equipment based on the image of the occupant taken by the camera, and a provision control unit configured to provide the anti-droplet protective equipment to the occupant with the anti-droplet protective equipment providing device when the determination unit determines that the occupant is not wearing the anti-droplet protective equipment.

Control system for vehicle and control method for vehicle

A moving object that travels from a current position toward a target position includes a first section candidate searching unit configured to search for a plurality of first section candidates in which the moving object is capable of traveling from the current position, a second section candidate searching unit configured to, for each ending point of the first section candidates, search for a plurality of second section candidates in which the moving object is capable of traveling from the ending points of the first section candidates, an obstacle position recognition unit configured to detect a position of an obstacle around the moving object, and a route decision unit configured to decide a first section and a second section used as a traveling route of the moving object from the plurality of first section candidates and the plurality of second section candidates.

Moving object and route decision method of moving object

An infection control vehicle includes a floor material. The floor material includes a plurality of holes that is open on an upper end. The holes are configured to capture a droplet. For example, a dimension of each of the holes is set so that the droplet inside the hole remains inside the hole.

Infection control vehicle

A moving body includes: a main body section provided with a moving mechanism; a peripheral information detection sensor configured to detect an obstacle peripheral to the main body section; and a control section configured to cause the main body section to autonomously travel by controlling the moving mechanism based on information regarding the peripheral obstacle detected by the peripheral information detection sensor, and configured to cause information relating to the peripheral obstacle, in a direction of progress of the main body section, to be displayed in a surrounding area of the main body section.

Moving body

A boarding and alighting support structure is applied to vehicle having a deck capable of boarding in a wheelchair. The boarding and alighting support structure includes a slope plate which projects obliquely from the boarding entrance end of the deck toward the ground, and a mounting member for installing the base portion of the slope plate at the boarding entrance end of the deck. The mounting member is configured to so that one end side is fixed to the base portion, other end is fixed to the entrance port end, and the one end side is flexibly configured with respect to the other end side.

Boarding and alighting support structure for vehicle

A passenger transportation system includes: an abnormality determination unit configured to determine whether or not a passenger feeling unwell is present in a vehicle; a transportation planning unit configured to determine, when it is determined that the passenger feeling unwell is present, a medical facility to which the passenger feeling unwell is transported and a via-point where normal passengers are dropped off; and a vehicle control unit configured to control the vehicle to travel so as to transport the passenger feeling unwell to the medical facility via the via-point.

The safety management apparatus comprises a protective shield with automatic opening and closing, a sensor configured to obtain physical information related to an occupant boarded an autonomous traveling cart, and a controller configured to control the opening and closing of the protective shield. The protective shield is configured to be normally open and, when closed, shield an occupant space of the cart from the outside. The controller includes at least one memory including at least one program, and at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory. The at least one processor executes a first process and a second process upon execution of the at least one program. The first process is to determine whether the occupant is an infant based on the physical information. The second process, which is executed when the occupant is determined to be an infant, is to close the protective shield.

Safety management apparatus for autonomous traveling cart

A guidance vehicle guides a dog for a walk, and includes a leash attachment, a distance sensor, and an electronic control unit. The leash attachment is configured to attach a leash that connects the dog.
