An information processing method includes receiving first information indicating a travel plan of a user, acquiring, for each on-demand vehicle service, second information indicating boarding/alighting points and operation status of a vehicle, determining and presenting, based on the first and second information, a recommended route for transferring bet ween first and second vehicles belonging to first and second on-demand vehicle services, and making a reservation with the first and second on-demand vehicle services in accordance with the recommended route. In the method, a first boarding/alighting point for boarding the first vehicle, a candidate transfer point for transferring from the first to the second vehicle, and a second boarding/alighting point for alighting from the second vehicle are determined, at least one candidate route from the first to the second boarding/alighting point via the candidate transfer point is determined, and based on the evaluation of each candidate route, the recommended route is determined.

Information processing method

A motion state monitoring system, a training support system, a motion state monitoring method, and a program capable of suitably managing measurement results according to an attaching direction of a sensor are provided. A motion state monitoring system according to the present disclosure monitors a motion state of a target part of a subject's body. The motion state monitoring system includes an acquisition unit, an attaching direction detection unit, and a control processing unit. The acquisition unit acquires sensing information of a sensor attached to the target part. The attaching direction detection unit detects an attaching direction of the sensor. The control processing unit outputs information related to the sensing information in association with the attaching direction.

Motion state monitoring system, training support system, motion state monitoring method, and program

An ultrasonic type object detection apparatus sequentially detects a distance between an ultrasonic sensor and an object in a coverage of a transmission wave at a predetermined detection cycle based on a time taken for the ultrasonic sensor to transmit the transmission wave and then to receive a reflection wave. The apparatus includes: a storage storing the distance to the object; a vehicle information acquisition device acquiring vehicle information for calculating a movement distance; a detection distance predictor predicting a next detected distance to the object based on a past detection result and the vehicle information; and a short range determinator determining whether the object is present in a short range area in which the distance between the object and the ultrasonic sensor is equal to or shorter than a short range threshold.

Ultrasonic type object detection apparatus

An ultrasonic object detection device includes: a first echo prolongation determination unit that sequentially determines whether a measured echo time of an ultrasonic sensor is prolonged from a reference echo time; a second echo prolongation determination unit that determines whether an addition echo time is prolonged from the reference echo time when the measured echo time is not prolonged from the reference echo time, and the ultrasonic sensor detects a reflected wave, the addition echo time being obtained by adding, to the measured echo time, a time from termination of an echo to termination of a first reflected wave; and a short distance object detection unit that determines that an object is disposed within a short distance so as to receive the reflected wave while the echo is not terminated when one of the measured echo time or addition echo time is prolonged from the reference echo time.
