There is provided a vehicle including: a plurality of dimming glass units used for a plurality of windows; a sensor that acquires an entering situation of natural light at a predetermined position; and a controller. The controller performs: specifying a first dimming glass unit that is a control target out of the plurality of dimming glass units in accordance with the entering situation of natural light; and controlling a light shielding property of the first dimming glass unit. The controller controls the first dimming glass unit so as to be into a light shielding state when the entering situation of natural light satisfies a first condition indicating that an occupant in the vehicle feels glaringness, and releases the light shielding state of the first dimming glass unit when the entering situation of natural light satisfies a second condition indicating that the occupant in the vehicle does not feel glaringness.

Vehicle, information processing apparatus, and method

The present disclosure makes it possible to construct a production line of products using pieces of first equipment located in a geographical area and mobile second equipment. An information processing method tries to assign pieces of first equipment to a series of work processes to produce products based on the pieces of first equipment located in the geographical area and positions thereof, decides installation of pieces of second equipment to be assigned to a part of the series of work processes to which a part of the pieces of equipment cannot be assigned from among the pieces of first equipment when there is the part of the series of work processes to which the part of the pieces of equipment cannot be assigned from among the pieces of first equipment, outputs a request to transport the pieces of second equipment to an installation position in the geographical area.

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

A driving operation handover system includes a memory and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire a first characteristic value of preset setting characteristics during travel of a vehicle equipped with a manual operation unit that an occupant operates; acquire a second characteristic value of the preset setting characteristics during travel of a virtual vehicle that simulates the vehicle, which a remote operator operates using a remote operation unit; calculate a difference value between the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value; in a case in which the difference value is lower than a setting threshold value, notify the occupant and the remote operator that operation of the vehicle can be handed over; and after notification, switch operation of the vehicle from one of the remote operator or the occupant to another of the remote operator or the occupant.

Driving operation handover system and vehicle

A remote operation system includes a processor that is configured to acquire position information and communication quality information from each of plural vehicles on a regular basis, create position-specific communication quality information in which the position information and the communication quality information are associated with each other, supply the position-specific communication quality information to an operator of a remote operation target vehicle.

Remote operation system, computer readable storage medium, and vehicle

A vehicle-mounted device that includes: a memory; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: detect an own vehicle position; transmit position information that indicates the detected own vehicle position to a location outside the own vehicle, together with car model information that indicates a car model of the own vehicle; receive position information of another vehicle of a predetermined specific car model or map information that indicates a position of the other vehicle, from the location outside the own vehicle; and display the position of the other vehicle on a monitor as a map, based on a reception result.

Vehicle-mounted device, server, navigation system, recording medium storing map display program, and map display method

A navigation device that includes: a memory; and a processor that is configured to: acquire route information relating to a planned route to be traveled by a second vehicle of a user having a friendly relationship with a user of a first vehicle, search for a guided route based on a current position of the first vehicle and the route information, such that at least one of the first vehicle or the second vehicle heads toward a common location, and output route guidance information relating to the guided route to at least one of the first vehicle or the second vehicle.
