When the vehicle is in the parking lot 1 and is manually driven after leaving the parking lot, this vehicle is referred to as a manually driven vehicle 98 after leaving the parking lot. When the vehicle is outside the parking lot 1 and is manually driven after the entry, this vehicle is referred to as a manually driven vehicle 99 after the entry. The illustrations of vehicles 93, 94, 98, and 99 are omitted.

Hereinafter, an outline of the automatic valet parking system of the second embodiment using the parking lot 1 of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the figure, the automatic valet parking system 2 of this embodiment includes a server device 21, a user's mobile terminal 23, a vehicle 90-99, a display device 113, an entrance / exit gate 114, a motion sensor 115, and an on-site camera 124. It includes a main gate 131, an out-of-field camera 132, a display device 133, and the like.

Hereinafter, a configuration example of the server device 21 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the figure, the server device 21 includes a data receiving unit 211, a warehousing status determination unit 212, a warehousing status determination unit 213, a gate determination unit 214, a control information generation unit 215, and a data transmission unit 216. It may be configured to include. It is assumed that the data receiving unit 211 can receive data from another device via the network 8, and the data transmitting unit 216 can transmit data to another device via the network 8. ..

Hereinafter, an operation example of the automatic valet parking system 2 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in the figure, the out-of-field camera 132 transmits the image of the entrance lane area 13 to the server device 21 at predetermined time intervals (S132). The on-site camera 124 transmits the image of the autonomous driving vehicle area 12 to the server device 21 at predetermined time intervals (S124). The vehicle 90-99 transmits data indicating the current status of the vehicle 90-99 to the server device 21 at predetermined time intervals (S90a-S99a). Further, the user's mobile terminal 23 transmits the warehousing request and the warehousing request to the server device 21 according to the input from the user. With respect to the warehousing request and the warehousing request, the warehousing and warehousing times can be specified in advance (referred to as reserved warehousing and reserved warehousing). The user can also use a device other than the mobile terminal 23 when transmitting the warehousing request and the warehousing request. The motion sensor 115 transmits the sensing result to the server device 21 at predetermined time intervals.

The data receiving unit 211 of the server device 21 receives these data (S211). The received data is treated as data representing the status of vehicle warehousing in the parking lot 1 (receipt status) and data representing the status of vehicle warehousing from the parking lot 1 (delivery status).

The warehousing status determination unit 212 determines the current warehousing status of the parking lot 1 based on predetermined data among the received data (S212). For example, the warehousing status determination unit 212 may determine the total number of the pre-entry manual driving vehicle 90 and the pre-warehousing manual driving vehicle 91 as the warehousing status. In the example of FIG. 1, the warehousing status is a total of two units.

The warehousing status determination unit 212 may perform different controls depending on the availability of the autonomous vehicle area 12. For example, the total number of passenger compartments and the total number of buffers may be set as the maximum number of vehicles that may be simultaneously included in the autonomous vehicle area 12. The number of buffers is a preset number of vehicles, which is set as an upper limit of the number of vehicles that can stand by in a place other than the passenger compartment in the autonomous driving vehicle area 12 to the extent that the passage of vehicles is not hindered. That is. At this time, when the total number of the manual driving vehicle 91 before warehousing, the waiting vehicle 92 before warehousing, the automatic driving vehicle 93 before warehousing, the parked vehicle 94, the automatic driving vehicle 95 after warehousing, and the waiting vehicle 96 after warehousing has reached the upper limit. , The server device 21 temporarily closes the main gate 131. In this case, the warehousing status determination unit 212 may set the pre-entry manual driving vehicle 90 as a no-count and determine only the number of pre-warehousing manual driving vehicles 91 as the warehousing status. When the main gate 131 is closed, in the example of FIG. 1, the warehousing status is one in total.

The warehousing status determination unit 213 determines the current warehousing status of the parking lot 1 based on predetermined data among the received data (S213). For example, the warehousing status determination unit 213 may determine the total number of the self-driving vehicle 95 after warehousing and the waiting vehicle 96 after warehousing as the warehousing status. In the example of FIG. 1, the shipping status is 2 units in total.

The gate determination unit 214 determines which of the entry / exit gates 114 is used for exiting from the autonomous vehicle area 12 according to the current warehousing status and the warehousing status (S214).

For example, the gate determination unit 214 divides the gate into two sets (zoning) according to the ratio of the warehousing status and the warehousing status, and enters the gate assigned according to the ratio of the warehousing status into the autonomous driving vehicle area 12. The gate used for exiting the autonomous vehicle area 12 may be determined as the gate used for exiting from the autonomous vehicle area 12. For example, in the case of the example of FIG. 1 (when the main gate 131 is opened), the warehousing status is a total of 2 units and the warehousing status is also a total of 2 units. The set of gates used for entry may be determined, and the set of remaining gates may be determined as the set of gates used for exit.

At this time, since the waiting vehicle 92 before warehousing and the waiting vehicle 97 occupy the front of the gate, the gate corresponding to this may be excluded and the remaining gates may be divided into two sets. In the example of FIG. 1, the remaining gates (gates corresponding to identification numbers 1, 3, 5, ...) After subtracting the three occupied gates (gates corresponding to identification numbers 2, 4, 6) are evenly divided into two. It may be divided into two sets, and the set of gates having a corresponding young identification number may be determined as the set of gates used for entry, and the set of remaining gates may be determined as the set of gates used for exit.

The control information generation unit 215 generates control information for the vehicle 90-99, the display device 113, the entry / exit gate 114, the main gate 131, and the display device 133 based on the gate determined in step S214 (S215). ).

For example, the control information generation unit 215 generates an entry command for the self-driving vehicle area 12 and a warehousing command in the area for the waiting vehicle 92 before warehousing. Further, the control information generation unit 215 generates a warehousing command for the parked vehicle 94 that has received the warehousing request and an exit command to the outside of the autonomous driving vehicle area 12. The exit command shall include a restriction of exiting the autonomous vehicle area 12 using any of the exit gates determined in step S214. Further, the control information generation unit 215 generates an exit command from the autonomous driving vehicle area 12 and a standby command in the vehicle standby space 111 for the standby vehicle 96 after leaving the garage. Various control commands are appropriately generated for vehicles in other situations.

For example, the control information generation unit 215 generates a display command for executing a display prompting the driver to enter the display device 113 corresponding to the gate determined as the gate used for approach in step S214. Further, a display command for executing a display prohibiting the driver from entering is generated for the display device 113 corresponding to the gate determined as the gate used for exit in step S214.

For example, the control information generation unit 215 generates an opening command for the entry / exit gate 114 corresponding to the waiting vehicle 92 before warehousing and the waiting vehicle 96 after leaving warehousing. Further, the control information generation unit 215 generates a closing command for the main gate 131 when the total number of vehicles 91 to 96 has reached a preset upper limit.

For example, the control information generation unit 215 generates a display command for the display device 131 to execute various displays directed to the driver. Various displays for the driver may be displayed together with the WEB site or the like.

The data transmission unit 216 transmits various control information generated by the control information generation unit 215 to the corresponding devices via the network 8 (S216).

The vehicle 90-99 that has received the control information executes various commands based on the control information (S90b-S99b). The display device 113 that has received the control information executes a display command based on the control information (S113). The entrance / exit gate 114 that has received the control information executes an opening command and a closing command based on the control information (S114). The main gate 131 that has received the control information executes an open command and a close command based on the control information (S114). The display device 131 that has received the control information executes a display command based on the control information (S131).

Although not described in the above-described embodiment, the present invention includes a pattern in which the entrance / exit gate 114 is not provided, a case where the vehicle waiting space 111 and the passenger space 112 are not arranged alternately, and the like. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the entry / exit gate 114 and the like are omitted, and the vehicle waiting space 111 is divided into a boarding space 111a and a disembarking space 111b in a simple configuration. It may be configured to change the ratio of the area (or the side in the longitudinal direction) of the disembarkation space 111b.
