When an autonomous vehicle is caused to depart from a current position to a pickup location, a waiting location for temporarily parking the autonomous vehicle is set between the current position and the pickup location. The autonomous vehicle is autonomously driven from the current position to the waiting location, temporarily parked at the waiting location, and then autonomously driven to the pickup location.

An upper-limit speed of a vehicle in automatic parking control is set, and the vehicle is caused to park automatically in a parking space at a vehicle speed equal to or lower than the set upper-limit speed. In this case, the upper-limit speed is set according to a vehicle body size of the vehicle, and the upper-limit speed is lower when the vehicle body size of the vehicle is greater than a preset size than when the vehicle body size of the vehicle is less than the preset size.

A control unit of a server is a device that adjusts a parking position of a vehicle in a parking lot, and includes an acquisition unit that acquires the parking position of the vehicle scheduled to receive a package in the parking lot, and an adjustment information generation unit that generates adjustment information for adjusting parking of another vehicle in a parking slot adjacent to the parking position of the vehicle scheduled to receive the package in the parking lot such that a space is secured around the vehicle scheduled to receive the package.

A mobile object is configured to transmit, in response to a gesture of a traffic participant existing in the vicinity of the mobile object being a stop request, an inquiry signal including position information of the traffic participant to a server in order to confirm whether the mobile object provides a specific service to which the traffic participant who has performed the gesture is subscribed. The server is configured to determine, in response to receiving the inquiry signal, whether the traffic participant who made the gesture is one of users subscribed to the specific service and transmit an answer signal including a result of the determination to the mobile object. The mobile object is further configured to perform, in response to receiving the answer signal, an action according to a result of the determination included in the answer signal.

Mobility system and server

A potential collision risk between a vehicle and a potential traffic participant predicted to be present ahead in a direction of travel of the vehicle is foreseen. A first annunciation is performed notifying those in a vicinity that the vehicle is traveling, using an externally-directed annunciator installed in the vehicle, in response to the potential collision risk being foreseen. Note that when a manifested collision risk between the vehicle and a manifested traffic participant confirmed ahead in the direction of travel of the vehicle is sensed, a second annunciation notifying those in the vicinity regarding collision avoidance actions of the vehicle may be performed using the externally-directed annunciator. However, the first annunciation is prioritized over the second annunciation as long as the potential collision risk continues.

A method according to the present disclosure comprises acquiring a plurality sets of traveling video recorded by a plurality of cameras capturing a plurality of directions equipped in a remote driving vehicle, acquiring information regarding at least one of driving operation by a remote driving operator, a traveling state of the remote driving vehicle, and motion of the remote driving operator, specifying an attention direction or an attention scope of the remote driving operator for a situation around the remote driving vehicle based on acquired information, displaying at least one of the plurality sets of traveling video reflecting the attention direction or the attention scope on a display device, and performing display based on the attention direction or the attention scope.

In a vehicle control device for an autonomous driving vehicle that autonomously travels based on an operation command, a gesture image of a person around the autonomous driving vehicle is acquired, and a stored reference gesture image is collated with the acquired gesture image. At this time, when it is discriminated that the gesture of the person around the autonomous driving vehicle is a gesture requesting the autonomous driving vehicle to stop, it is determined whether a disaster has occurred. When it is determined that the disaster has occurred, the autonomous driving vehicle is caused to stop around the person requesting the autonomous driving vehicle to stop.

Vehicle control device, vehicle control method, and storage medium

A vehicle is autonomously driven in an environment where a first road for vehicles running in a first direction and a second road for vehicles running in a second direction, different from the first direction, are provided alongside each other, and where a first parking space that is entered from the first road and exited to the first road is set and a second parking space that is entered from the second road and exited to the second road is set. When the vehicle is temporarily parked in the first parking space and a running direction of the vehicle heading for the next destination after being parked is the second direction, the vehicle is transferred from the first parking space to the second parking space by autonomous driving after a user of the vehicle gets out of the vehicle.

Whether a vehicle is parked inside parking lines in a parking lot is detected. When the vehicle is detected not parked inside the parking lines, either the vehicle or the parking lines are moved in such a manner that the vehicle is parked inside the parking lines.

Parking lot management system, parking lot management method, and storage medium

A vehicle includes a sensor that detects a traffic signal installed in a travel route of the own vehicle, another vehicle traveling around the own vehicle, and another mobile object around the own vehicle. After recognizing that the own vehicle has passed the traffic signal, the vehicle determines whether or not there are the other mobile object moving toward the traffic signal and the other vehicle moving beside the other mobile object toward the traffic signal. When determining that there are the other mobile object moving toward the traffic signal and the other vehicle moving beside the other mobile object toward the traffic signal, the vehicle controls the traffic signal based on a traveling state of the other vehicle.
