A control device includes a controller that executes determining a connection between a first unit that has a boarding space which allows a user to board and is provided with a predetermined facility and that is provided with a first path through which a fluid used in the predetermined facility passes and a second unit that is configured to be separated from and connected to the first unit and that has a drive device of a vehicle that is formed by being connected to the first unit, and supplying the fluid in the first path to a second unit side to absorb heat generated from the drive device.

Control device, vehicle, and control method

A driving handover control device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. In a case in which driving is handed over from a first state in which a vehicle travels in accordance with instruction from a first remote operator of the vehicle to a second state in which the vehicle travels in accordance with instruction from a second remote operator who is different from the first remote operator, the processor implements a transition from the first state to a third state in which the vehicle travels autonomously without instruction from the first remote operator or the second remote operator, and, after the transition from the first state to the third state, implements a transition from the third state to the second state.

Driving handover control device and driving handover control method

A driving handover control device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. In a case in which driving is handed over from a first state in which a vehicle travels in accordance with instruction from a remote operator of the vehicle to a second state in which the vehicle travels in accordance with operation by a passenger of the vehicle, the processor implements a transition from the first state to a third state in which the vehicle travels autonomously without instruction from the remote operator or operation by the passenger, and, after the transition from the first state to the third state, implements a transition from the third state to the second state.

An information processing device for managing a vehicle including a toilet unit, a tank unit connected to the toilet unit for storing waste that flows from the toilet unit, and a traveling unit capable of moving the toilet unit and the tank unit. The information processing device performs control for disconnecting the traveling unit from the toilet unit and the tank unit when installing a toilet. The information processing device includes a control unit configured to acquire a storage amount of waste in the tank unit and to generate commands to the traveling unit to cause the traveling unit to replace the tank unit when the storage amount of waste becomes equal to or larger than a predetermined amount.

Information processing device, information processing method, and system

A facility provides an infrastructure service to a vehicle including a first unit that includes a driving wheel and a second unit that has a vehicle cabin space and is separable from the first unit. The facility includes a connection unit that connects to the second unit and a provision unit that provides the infrastructure service to the second unit when the connection unit is connected to the second unit.

Facility, provision method, and provision system

A driving handover control device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. In a case in which driving is handed over from a first state in which a vehicle is traveling by remote driving by a first driver from outside the vehicle or by occupant driving by the first driver in the vehicle, to a second state in which the vehicle travels by the remote driving or the occupant driving by a second driver who is different from the first driver, the processor is configured to cause transition from the first state to a third state in which the vehicle is caused to travel by automatic driving, and then cause transition from the third state to the second state.

In a vehicle travel system for a vehicle that is switchable at least between manual driving and remote driving, the vehicle includes a memory, and a processor connected to the memory. The processor acquires driver information related to a driver that manually drives the vehicle. The driver information indicates a specific situation during a time of manual driving. The processor enables manual driving to be switched to remote driving upon occurrence of the specific situation indicated by the acquired driver information.

Vehicle travel system

The information processing device includes a controller that executes acquiring at least one of first information related to advertisement activity from a second unit that is usable as a vehicle cabin of a vehicle and is disposed separately from a first unit having a drive unit of the vehicle, the second unit being provided for the advertisement activity, and second information related to a movement of a person within a first predetermined range from a place where the second unit is disposed, and instructing the first unit to move the second unit to a movement destination decided based on at least one of the acquired first information and the acquired second information.
