A vehicle includes: a cooling box in which a delivery item delivered by a deliverer can be accommodated; a communication device configured to communicate with at least one of a server and a deliverer terminal that is used by the deliverer for delivery; and a communication device configured to acquire a target value of a temperature inside the cooling box from outside. The vehicle acquires the target value of the temperature inside the cooling box from at least one of the server and the deliverer terminal.

Vehicle and delivery system

A vehicle includes: a vehicle main body having a passenger compartment and a rear compartment located more rearward than the passenger compartment; a rear hatch provided on the vehicle main body and configured to open and close the rear compartment; a cooling box disposed in the rear compartment; a first communication device configured to communicate with an external server; a second communication device having a communication distance shorter than that of the first communication device; a locking device configured to lock the rear hatch; and a processor. The processor is configured to receive information about an opening signal from the server through the first communication device, and to open the rear hatch when the processor receives the opening signal through the second communication device.

Vehicle

An electric vehicle includes: a rotary electric machine configured to generate a driving force for driving driving wheels; a driving battery storing power to drive the rotary electric machine; a converter connected to the driving battery; an auxiliary battery connected to the driving battery via the converter; and a cooling box connected to the auxiliary battery. When the driving battery has an SOC reduced to be smaller than a prescribed threshold value, the converter is stopped and power remaining in the auxiliary battery is used to drive the cooling box.

Electric vehicle

An information processing system includes a vehicle and an information processing apparatus. The vehicle that includes an image capturing device and that delivers a package. The information processing apparatus that includes a processor configured to determine, in a case where a recipient is not present at a delivery destination of the package, reception of the package by a substitute person present at a residence different from that of the recipient. The vehicle captures the substitute person receiving the package, with the image capturing device. The processor is configured to transmit, in a case where reception of the package by the substitute person is completed, captured data of the image capturing device to a user terminal associated with the recipient. The vehicle is an autonomous vehicle.

Information processing system and information processing method

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure transmits, upon receiving first information requesting provision of contact information indicating a contact address of a second user, transmitted from a first user terminal which is a terminal used by the first user, second information which is information requesting permission to provide the contact information to the first user and which includes information capable of identifying the first user to a second user terminal which is a terminal used by the second user. The second user is a user who is sharing or has a history of sharing a predetermined space with the first user.

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

An information processing system includes: a movable object that operates as a movable shop after business hours of a predetermined shop; and a control unit that executes acquiring product information, the product information being information relevant to a plurality of foodstuffs loaded in the movable object, each of the plurality of foodstuffs being a product of the predetermined shop and being discounted due to an expiration date, and controlling a route of the movable object based on the product information. The control unit controls the route of the movable object, based on a ratio of kinds of the plurality of foodstuffs loaded in the movable object, as the product information.

An information processing apparatus determines whether or not a predetermined transfer condition for urging a target user sharing a ride in a ride-sharing vehicle with another user with a different destination to transfer between ride-sharing vehicles during movement is established, on the basis of a predicted travel route of each of a transfer source vehicle and a transfer destination vehicle. Then, in the case where the predetermined transfer condition is determined to be established, the information processing apparatus transmits transfer information for urging the target user to transfer from the transfer source vehicle to the transfer destination vehicle during movement, to a terminal associated with the transfer source vehicle and a terminal associated with the transfer destination vehicle.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a technology that makes it possible that a plurality of users use a vehicle that does not have a specified regular driver. An information processing apparatus determines whether or not after a first user moves to a destination place by driving a first vehicle, a second user is able to move by driving the first vehicle from the destination place of the first user as a departure place. If an affirmative determination is made in the determining, the information processing apparatus matches the first user and the second user with the first vehicle.

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

A delivery system for delivering a delivery item to a vehicle includes a vehicle equipped with a cooling box which is provided with an openable door and configured to accommodate a delivery item, at least one deliverer terminal provided with a notification device for sending a notification to a deliverer, and a delivery server configured to communicate with the vehicle and the deliverer terminal. The delivery server sends to the deliverer terminal a notification indicating that the door is unclosed if the deliverer forgets to close the door.

Delivery system and delivery server

An electric vehicle includes: a vehicle main body; and a cooling box provided in the vehicle main body. A passenger compartment in which a passenger gets, and a front accommodation compartment provided more frontward than the passenger compartment are formed in the vehicle main body. The cooling box is disposed in the front accommodation compartment. Thus, the cooling box mounted on the electric vehicle can be easily accessed even when the electric vehicle is parked reversely.

A delivery system includes: a first vehicle including a first delivery box; a second vehicle including a second delivery box; a user terminal configured to be operated by a user; a deliverer terminal used by a deliverer during delivery; and a server configured to communicate with the first vehicle, the second vehicle, the user terminal, and the deliverer terminal. When the server receives a change signal from the user terminal to change a delivery destination for a delivery item from the first vehicle to the second vehicle, the server is configured to transmit required information to the deliverer terminal, the required information being required for the deliverer to deliver the delivery item to the second vehicle.

Delivery system, server, and vehicle

The vehicle includes a thawing compartment configured to thaw a commodity housed therein, an acquisition device configured to obtain information including a thawing time limit set based on a request from a user, and a controller configured to control the thawing operation of the thawing compartment. The controller controls the thawing compartment so as to complete the thawing operation of the commodity housed therein by the thawing time limit.

Vehicle, thawing system and server

A vehicle includes: a main body; a rotary electric machine provided in the main body; a driving battery configured to be chargeable and dischargeable and supply power to the rotary electric machine; a cooling box detachable from the main body; at least one detachable battery detachable from the main body; and a charger configured to charge the detachable battery with power supplied from the driving battery, the detachable battery being configured to be attachable to the cooling box.
