An information processing apparatus includes a controller configured to predict a scattering range of a chemical to be sprayed onto a field by a first unmanned aircraft and control, in a case in which it is determined that the chemical will scatter near the field based on the scattering range, a three-dimensional position or a travel route of a second unmanned aircraft so that downwash of the second unmanned aircraft prevents scattering of the chemical near the field.

Information processing apparatus, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

An information processing apparatus, which is provided to display advertisement information on a display apparatus installed with a display surface directed to a road, is configured to execute acquisition of a traveling situation of a vehicle which travels on the road; selection of a first display form or a second display form having an amount of information larger than that of the first display form, as the display form of the advertisement information on the basis of the traveling situation; and display of the advertisement information on the display apparatus in the display form selected on the basis of the traveling situation.

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

An output apparatus arranged on a traveling route of a user is allowed to timely output information desired by the user. The information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure is an information processing apparatus to be used by a mobile user, the information processing apparatus comprising a controller which executes acquisition of a content designated by the user; specification of an output apparatus arranged on a traveling route of the user; and transmission of the acquired content to the specified output apparatus.

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

An information processor includes a generation section that generates a specified character string on the basis of at least one of voice information corresponding to a content of speech detected by a voice detection section and vehicle information acquired from a vehicle. With this configuration, a user can input the specified character string, which is a hashtag, without an operation. Thus, compared to the related art in which the hashtag is generated on the basis of the operation (manual input) by the user, a burden on the user can significantly be reduced, and an input error can be prevented.

Information processor and information processing program

A technique for outputting information relevant to a facility suitable for an action of a user at a point in a traveling route or at a destination is provided. An information processing apparatus comprises a controller which executes acquisition or estimation of a traveling route of a user; calculation of temporal information including at least one of a passage time at which the user passes through a point on the traveling route and a traveling period of time which is required until arrival at the point after starting a travel; acquisition of information relevant to a facility suitable for the user who passes through the point, of a plurality of facilities existing around the point on the basis of the temporal information; and output of the information relevant to the facility by means of an output unit.

An information system comprises a controller which is configured to execute: acquiring a screen image of a vehicle which is traveling on a roadway, the screen image being photographed by the aid of an image pickup unit; detecting a dangerous driving state of the vehicle which is traveling, in accordance with a time course of the screen image; and displaying information in relation to the vehicle having been detected to be in the dangerous driving state on a signage apparatus.

A driving assistance device includes: a vehicle group search unit that acquires a most frequent vehicle speed of the vehicle and to search for one or more vehicle group, the most frequent vehicle speed being a vehicle speed that is most frequent, the vehicle group traveling at one of the most frequent vehicle speed and a speed close to the most frequent vehicle speed; a distance information generation unit that generates the vehicle group searched for by the vehicle group search unit and distance information on a distance between the vehicle group and an information-receiving vehicle that has sent the most frequent vehicle speed; and a merging assistance unit that sends the distance information generated by the distance information generation unit to a user terminal device and assists the vehicle in merging into one of the vehicle groups searched for by the vehicle group search unit.

A parking lot guidance device includes a processor. The processor is configured to cause a communication unit to transmit exit information to a vehicle with the highest priority among other vehicles that are transmission targets. The exit information includes information of a size of a parking section in which a host vehicle is parked, information of a position of the parking section in which the host vehicle is parked, and information of a start of exit of the host vehicle.

Parking lot guidance device

A driving support device includes a memory and a processor including hardware. When a vehicle is placed inside a rest facility and at least one of parameters indicative of respective states of traffic jams on roads ahead of and behind the rest facility satisfy a predetermined reference, the processor transmits, to a device related to the vehicle, information that proposes a departure from the rest facility.

Driving support device, driving support method, and program

A program delivery center is a program update device which updates a program of an ECU mounted in a vehicle, wherein a right holder specification unit specifies a right holder who has a right to execute the update of the program on the basis of information regarding the vehicle, and a reprogramming guide execution unit sets and outputs program update guide notification to the right holder. Accordingly, the update of the program by a person other than the right holder can be avoided, thereby improving security. Furthermore, since the update of the program is notified to the right holder which can execute the update of the program, a program update execution frequency increases compared to a case where a user who cannot execute the update of the program is notified, thereby prompting the execution of the program update.
