Vehicle, information processing system, non-transitory computer readable medium, and control method

A server is communicably connected to a plurality of vehicles that includes vehicles usable as guest rooms, and includes a server controller. The server controller is configured to control a formation of the plurality of vehicles depending on a positional relationship between windows or doors provided in the plurality of vehicles, or depending on scenery from the windows provided in the plurality of vehicles.

Server, information processing system, non-transitory computer-readable medium, and control method

An information processing apparatus includes a controller. The information processing apparatus is capable of following a user. The controller acquires position information, and provides, to the user, sightseeing information according to a sightseeing spot determined from the position information.

Information processing apparatus, non-transitory computer-readable medium, and control method for providing sightseeing information

A control apparatus for a vehicle, is mounted on an automobile that has a motor for traveling and a power storage apparatus for exchanging electric power with the motor. The control apparatus is configured to execute external charging for charging the power storage apparatus by using electric power from an external power supply, and is configured to perform a route guidance for a planned travel route to a destination. When operation information on a charging spot of the destination is not obtainable and it is predicted that the charging spot of the destination is not usable, it is recommended to execute the external charging at a charging spot around the planned travel route.
