A vehicle steering handle, comprising: a steering wheel that is an isosceles trapezoidal annular body composed of an upper bottom portion, a lower bottom portion longer than the upper bottom portion, and left and right leg portions; an accelerator lever attached to the right leg portion; and a brake lever attached to the left leg portion and the right leg portion.

Vehicle steering handle

The vehicle includes a vehicle platform configured to be capable of receiving commands related to autonomous driving from the autonomous driving kit. The autonomous driving kit is configured to transmit a wake command to the vehicle platform requesting transition of the power mode of the vehicle platform to the wake mode. The vehicle platform transitions to the wake mode by the wake command only when the shift lever indicates parking and the vehicle speed is 0 km/h.

Vehicle including a vehicle platform that transitions to a wake mode according to a wake command

A controller is provided which controls a vehicle with a storage device mounted thereon in which a user is able to deposit baggage, the controller being configured to determine a deposit point of the baggage or a pick-up point of the baggage according to weather conditions.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and non-transitory storage medium storing program for determining a pick-up or deposit point for baggage according to weather conditions

A VP includes a base vehicle and a VCIB. The VCIB includes a reception unit, an index value calculation unit, a transmission unit, and a transmission plan setting unit. The reception unit receives a control request for the base vehicle from an ADS. The index value calculation unit calculates an index value showing a degree of congestion of CAN communication. The transmission unit transmits a control instruction for the base vehicle generated based on the control request to the base vehicle. The transmission plan setting unit sets a transmission plan of the control instruction to the base vehicle. The transmission plan setting unit sets the transmission plan according to a degree of priority of the control instruction in CAN communication and the index value.

Vehicle platform and vehicle control interface box

A VP is configured such that an ADS is installable in the VP. The VP includes a base vehicle and a VCIB. The VCIB acts as an interface between the base vehicle and the ADS by CAN communication. The VCIB includes a reception unit, an index value calculation unit, and a transmission unit. The reception unit receives a control request for the base vehicle from the ADS. The index value calculation unit calculates an index value showing a degree of congestion of the CAN communication. The transmission unit transmits the index value to the ADS.

Vehicle platform, vehicle control interface box, and autonomous driving system

An information processing device includes a processor. The processor is configured to control a vehicle including a storage apparatus including one or more compartments configured such that a user deposits baggage. The processor is configured to, when a predetermined event related to storage of the baggage has occurred in the storage apparatus, restrict deposit of the baggage into the storage apparatus by the user until the vehicle including the storage apparatus moves to a predetermined place where the predetermined event is resolvable.

Information processing device and information processing method

An abnormality is more quickly resolved when the abnormality occurs in a storage device. An information processing apparatus is provided which includes a controller configured to control a vehicle with the storage device mounted thereon in which a user is able to deposit or pick up baggage, wherein the controller generates a route for the vehicle before an occurrence of a predetermined event so that the route passes through a deposit point of the baggage or a pick-up point of the baggage and a predetermined area including a predetermined location where the predetermined event is able to be resolved if the predetermined event related to storage of the baggage occurs in the storage device.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and non-transitory storage medium storing program for generating route based on event and a deposit point of a baggage or a pick-up point of the baggage

An information processing apparatus is provided which includes a controller configured to control a vehicle that is equipped with a storage device in which baggage can be deposited by a user, and a storing section for storing cushioning material that can be used by the user when the user deposits the baggage in the storage device, wherein the controller performs to generate a command for replenishment of the cushioning material in the storing section when a remaining amount of the cushioning material in the storing section is less than a predetermined amount.
