<Configuration of terminal device>
FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the terminal device 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

  Referring to FIG. 2, terminal device 1 includes a route search request receiving unit 11, a route search request notifying unit 12, a route information obtaining unit 13, a display unit 14, a reservation receiving unit 15, and a reservation notifying unit 16 And a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiving unit 17, an approach determining unit 18, and an approach notifying unit 19.

  The route search request receiving unit 11 receives a route search request including information on a destination from the user 9. For example, the user 9 inputs destination information by operating input means such as a keyboard of the terminal device 1. The route search request receiving unit 11 receives the input destination information as a route search request. The route search request may include information useful for route search, such as a departure place, a transit point, a departure time, or an arrival time.

  The route search request notifying unit 12 transmits the route search request received by the route search request receiving unit 11 to the route searching device 2 via the network.

  The route information acquisition unit 13 acquires the route information by receiving the first route information and the second route information from the route search device 2. Note that the route information acquired by the route information acquiring unit 13 only needs to include at least the second route information, and does not need to include the first route information.

  The display unit 14 includes a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL (electroluminescence) display, and displays the route information acquired by the route information acquisition unit 13.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of the route information displayed on the display unit 14.
Referring to FIG. 3, it is assumed that first route information is displayed on the left side of display unit 14, and second route information is displayed on the right side. However, the display position of each piece of route information is not limited to this. For example, the first route information may be displayed on the right side, and the second route information may be displayed on the left side.

  The first route information indicates a travel route by public transportation from the station A, which is the departure place of the user 9, to the facility E, which is the destination. Specifically, the first route information indicates that the user gets on the J-Rail Shinkansen N departing from station A at 11:50, arrives at station B at 14:16, and arrives at station B at 14:32 The route information indicates that the user gets on a departure train of the J railway K line and arrives at station C at 14:35. The first route information further indicates that the user gets on a T-R train that departs from Station C at 14:48, arrives at Station D at 14:59, departs from Station D at 15:02, The route information indicates that the user moves on foot and arrives at the facility E at 15:09.

  On the other hand, the second route information has the same departure point and destination as the first route information, and the same route information from station A to station C, but has a ride share for the movement from station C to facility E. Used. That is, the second route information indicates route information that departs from the station C at 14:40, travels using ride sharing, and arrives at the facility E at 15:15.

  It should be noted that the first route information and the second route information also include comparison information that is information for comparing two pieces of route information. The comparison information includes information on travel cost, information on travel time, information on congestion status, and the like based on each piece of route information.

  For example, as the travel cost information, the first route information shows a fare of 8750 yen from station A to C station and a fare of 329 yen from station C to D station, and the second route information shows that The fare from the station C to the station C is 8750 yen, and the ride share fee from the station C to the facility E is 1200 yen.

  Further, as the information on the congestion status, the first route information includes that the estimated occupancy rate between the C station and the D station is 150%, and the expected congestion status from the D station to the facility E is “high” ( High).

  Further, the second route information indicates, as comparative information, a reason for recommending a ride share, “for conventional route congestion”. This indicates that the conventional route (first route information) from the station C to the station E is congested.

  Referring to FIG. 2 again, reservation accepting section 15 accepts a ride share reservation from user 9. For example, when the user 9 who wants to use the ride share while viewing the display of the second route information operates the input unit to make a ride share reservation, the reservation receiving unit 15 receives the reservation.

  When the reservation receiving unit 15 receives the reservation, the reservation notifying unit 16 notifies the route search apparatus 2 by transmitting the reservation information of the ride share. The ride share reservation information is use intention information indicating the intention of the user 9 to use the ride share, and includes, for example, a user identifier for identifying the user 9 and information on the use section and the use time of the ride share. However, since the route search device 2 is the transmission source of the second route information, the information of the use section and the use time of the ride share is known in advance. Therefore, the reservation notifying unit 16 does not need to transmit the information of the use section and the use time of the ride share to the route search device 2.

  The GPS receiving unit 17 receives radio waves from GPS satellites and detects the position of the terminal device 1 using satellite navigation. Note that satellite navigation is not limited to GPS. For example, the use of the quasi-zenith satellite system is expected in the future.

  When the reservation receiving unit 15 receives the ride share reservation, the approach determination unit 18 determines whether the user 9 has approached the ride share use section. Specifically, the approach determining unit 18 acquires the position information of the terminal device 1 from the GPS receiving unit 17 and acquires the second route information from the route information acquiring unit 13. The approach determination unit 18 determines that the user 9 has approached the section when the distance from the current position of the terminal device 1 to the use section of the ride share indicated in the second route information is equal to or less than a predetermined distance. . According to the second route information shown in FIG. 3, the approach determination unit 18 determines that the above approach has been approached when the distance from the current position of the terminal device 1 to the station C is equal to or less than a predetermined distance. Here, the position information of the use section can be determined from, for example, digital map information (not shown).

  When it is determined that the user 9 has approached the use section of the ride share, the approach notification unit 19 transmits approach information indicating that the user 9 has approached to the route search device 2. The approach information includes, for example, a user identifier, but may include position information of the terminal device 1.

<Configuration of route search device>

  With reference to FIG. 4, the route search device 2 includes a route search request acquisition unit 21, a first external information acquisition unit 22, a first route information generation unit 23, a first route information provision unit 24, An acquisition unit 25, a route information notification unit 26, a reservation reception unit 27, and a vehicle allocation request unit 28 are provided.

  The route search request acquisition unit 21 acquires the route search request by receiving the route search request from the terminal device 1.

  The first external information acquisition unit 22 acquires the first external information stored in the first external information DB 7 by reading the first external information from the first external information DB 7.

  The first route information generation unit 23 is configured to determine the destination indicated in the route search request based on the route search request acquired by the route search request acquisition unit 21 and the first external information acquired by the first external information acquisition unit 22. First route information which is route information by public transportation up to is generated. As a method of generating the first route information, a known method can be used, and thus the detailed description will not be repeated. For example, the first route information generation unit 23 searches for a route with the minimum route cost based on the first external information.

Thereby, the user 9 can use the ride share almost certainly by making the provisional reservation and the real reservation, and can receive the incentive. For ride-share operators, the number of ride-share users can be expected to increase.

[Modification]
In the above-described embodiment, the ride share fee is included as the comparison information of the second route information. However, the ride share fee generally becomes lower as the number of shared riders of the same automobile 6 increases.

  Therefore, when creating the comparison information of the second route information, the route information generation unit 45 of the ride share management device 4 calculates the total number of the users 9 who use the ride share and the other users who can share with the user 9 Based on the ride sharing fee is determined.

  As an example, the route information generation unit 45 compares the ride share fee in the case where the ride share is used alone when there is no other riderable user and the other user is alone (the total number of riders is less than the ride share fee). In the case of two persons), the ride share fee is determined to be １ ／. When the other user is two persons (the total number of persons is three), the ride share fee is reduced to １ ／. Determine the amount.

  When accepting a reservation or a provisional reservation from the user 9, the reservation accepting unit 47 accepts the sharing permission information indicating whether or not the user 9 permits sharing.

  The delivery planning section 48 of the ride share management device 4 functions as a vehicle allocation state prediction section, and predicts the vehicle allocation state when the user 9 uses the ride share based on the sharing permission / prohibition information. That is, when receiving a ride-sharing request from a plurality of users 9, the delivery planning unit 48 predicts a vehicle allocation situation when the user 9 passes through a ride-sharing use section. When the number of vehicles 6 that can be distributed is smaller than the number of users 9 who want to use the ride share, the delivery planning unit 48 distributes the users 9 who are permitted to be shared by the same vehicle 6. Create a plan.

  When a delivery plan for sharing the plurality of users 9 is created, the route information generation unit 45 of the ride share management device 4 generates second route information based on the destinations of the plurality of users 9 to be shared. . For example, when a plurality of users 9 have different starting points or destinations, the second route information for placing each user 9 on the automobile 6 at each starting point and delivering to each destination is created.

  As described above, according to the present modification, the information on the moving cost changes according to the number of users 9 who share the vehicle. Therefore, the user 9 can more accurately estimate the moving cost. This allows the user 9 to select the most convenient route information for himself / herself.

  Further, when a plurality of users 9 share a car that provides ride sharing, the second route information is generated such that the plurality of users 9 arrive at the destinations of the respective users 9 via the departure points of the respective users 9. Therefore, when there are many transit points, the user 9 can be given an option not to select the second route information.
