Description

The present invention relates to an information processing system, an information processing program, an information processing device, and an information processing method.

In recent years, carpooling services such as ride sharing have become widespread overseas. Here, "carpooling" generally means that a plurality of people ride together in a vehicle such as an automobile. In the present application, for example, in ride sharing, a driver and a passenger, and passengers are included in "carpooling". Further, in a conventional taxi, passengers of other people are included in "carpooling", while drivers and passengers are not included in "carpooling".

In Japan as well, taxi carpooling is scheduled to be lifted in the hope that it will ease traffic congestion in urban areas and become an alternative means of transportation for local residents, and several demonstration experiments have already been conducted. (Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2).

On the other hand, one of the concerns when using the carpooling service is anxiety about passengers, such as "I may be involved in trouble with the passengers." Similarly, with conventional taxis, drivers may be a psychological barrier to using taxis.

Therefore, in order to popularize the carpooling service, it is desirable to alleviate concerns about passengers and lower the psychological barriers to the use of the service. In the present application, not only other passengers but also conventional taxi drivers are included in "passengers".

In addition, Patent Document 1 describes an autonomous driving vehicle or the like that can protect the privacy of a user (user) even when carpooling occurs by shielding the window of the vehicle when getting off. ..

Have.

The vehicle dispatch request reception unit 111 receives a vehicle dispatch request including the position information of the departure place and the destination, which is input via the operation input unit 14. The location information is not particularly limited as long as it is information that can identify the location, and is, for example, a facility name (station name, etc.), an address, a telephone number, or the like. The vehicle dispatch request receiving unit 111 may receive the GPS information acquired from the positioning unit 16 as the position information of the departure place.

The information acquisition unit 112 acquires information on the vehicle movement route and the disembarkation position from the server 20. The disembarkation position is a position where a user who rides on a vehicle that he / she does not drive and moves from a departure point to a destination disembarks from the vehicle.

The information presentation unit 113 presents the movement route and the disembarkation position received from the server 20. In the present embodiment, the information presentation unit 113 presents the movement route and the disembarkation position to the user via the display unit 15. The information presenting unit 113 may present information to the user by controlling an audio output means (not shown) such as a speaker provided in the terminal device 10.

In this embodiment, each unit of the control unit 11 is realized by the processor in the terminal device 10 executing the program stored in the storage unit 13. At least a part of each part of the control unit 11 may be realized by hardware.

The communication unit 12 is an interface for transmitting and receiving various information to and from the server 20 via the network 30.

The storage unit 13 stores a program executed by the control unit 11 and data necessary for processing by the program. Further, the storage unit 13 may store data transmitted / received via the communication unit 12. The storage unit 13 is composed of a storage device such as a semiconductor memory.

The operation input unit 14 is an interface for a user to input information, and is composed of information input means such as a touch panel, a keyboard, a mouse, and a microphone (built-in microphone, etc.). The user inputs the departure place and the destination into the terminal device 10 via the operation input unit 14, and requests the vehicle allocation.

The display unit 15 is composed of an image display means such as a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display. As will be described later, the display unit 15 displays various information regarding the movement route, the disembarkation position, and the like. When the display unit 15 is a touch panel, the display unit 15 may also serve as the operation input unit 14.

The positioning unit 16 is configured to position and acquire the current position of the terminal device 10. The positioning unit 16 is composed of positioning means such as GPS (Global Positioning System) positioning and WiFi positioning, for example. The departure place may be set using the current position determined by the positioning unit 16.

<Server 20>
Next, with reference to FIG. 3, the details of the server 20 that is communicably connected to the terminal device 10 and accepts the vehicle allocation request will be described.

As shown in FIG. 3, the server 20 includes a control unit 21, a communication unit 22, and a storage unit 23.

The control unit 21 has an information acquisition unit 211 that acquires information from the terminal device 10 and the like, a route search unit 212, and a disembarkation position determination unit 213. In the present embodiment, each unit of the control unit 21 is realized by the processor in the server 20 executing the program stored in the storage unit 23. At least a part of each part of the control unit 21 may be realized by hardware.

In the present embodiment, the server 20 is composed of one information processing device, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the information processing system 1 may have a plurality of servers that can communicate with each other, and the functions of the server 20 may be realized by the cooperation of these servers.

Details of each unit of the control unit 21 will be described below.

The information acquisition unit 211 acquires the information transmitted from the terminal device 10 via the communication unit 22. For example, the information acquisition unit 211 acquires vehicle allocation request information including the location information of the departure place and the destination transmitted by the terminal device 10.

The route search unit 212 searches for a movement route using the route network database 231 of the storage unit 23. Since the vehicle is a shared taxi in the present embodiment, the route search unit 212 searches for a movement route based on the departure point and the destination received by the terminal device 10 of each user. That is, it searches for a movement route that satisfies each of the departure point and the destination set by a plurality of users who desire carpooling.

When a POI (Point Of Interest) exists in the vicinity of the destination, the route search unit 212 may search for a route from the departure point to the POI instead of a route from the departure point to the destination. That is, the route search unit 212 first searches for a route from the departure point to the POI around the destination, and then, if the route from the POI to the destination is appropriate, the route search unit 212 searches the route via the POI from the departure point. The route to the destination.

Here, the POI is a specific point or facility recognized as a convenient place or a place of interest for the user. Specifically, stores (for example, convenience stores, gas stations, restaurants, etc.), companies, offices, public facilities (for example, government offices, schools, post offices), entertainment facilities (for example, movie theaters, theaters, amusement parks, etc.) Etc.), outdoor facilities (for example, parks, bus terminals, outdoor parking lots, etc.).

The disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines a position (disembarkation position) at which the user disembarks the vehicle based on the movement route searched by the route search unit 212. When determining the disembarkation position, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position by referring to at least one of the map information database, the POI information database, and the walking network information.

The disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines at least one disembarkation position that can protect the privacy of the user as the disembarkation position. Here, the "getting off position where the privacy of the user can be protected" is a position where the user or the destination is considered to be invisible from the vehicle while the user gets off and moves to the destination. The fact that the user or destination cannot be seen "from the vehicle" means that the user or destination cannot be seen by the person (driver, passenger) in the vehicle, and the vehicle has a camera or the like. If a sensor is provided, it means that the user or destination is no longer captured by the sensor. For example, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines a position at which the destination (user) is considered to be invisible from the vehicle when the user disembarking from the vehicle arrives at the destination as the disembarkation position.

The communication unit 22 is an interface for transmitting and receiving information between the terminal device 10 and the server 20.

The storage unit 23 stores a program executed by the control unit 21 and data necessary for processing by the program. Further, the storage unit 23 may store data transmitted / received via the communication unit 22. The storage unit 23 is composed of a storage device such as a semiconductor memory (SSD or the like) or a hard disk. A part or all of the storage unit 23 may be provided in another server that is communicably connected to the server 20.

The route network database 231 and the user attribute database 232 are stored in the storage unit 23.

The route network database 231 is a database used when the route search unit 212 executes a route search, and includes road network information as the route network information. The road network information is represented by a combination of data of nodes in the road network representation such as intersections and data of links which are road sections between the nodes. The road network information may have different data for each means of transportation such as taxi and bus, or may set a cost for each means of transportation in the link.

The route network database 231 may include walking network information indicating a route network related to walking movement. The walking network information includes information on routes that cannot be passed by vehicle but can be passed by walking (pedestrian roads, sidewalks in parks, etc.). As a result, it is possible to search for a movement route that considers not only movement by vehicle but also movement by walking.

The user attribute database 232 is a database in which user attribute information is stored. Specifically, the user attribute database 232 includes information on identification information, gender, age (may be date of birth), and the like for each user. The user attribute database 232 may include attribute information (gender, age, etc.) of the driver of the vehicle.

In addition to the route network database 231 and the user attribute database 232, a database such as a map information database and a POI information database may be stored in the storage unit 23. The map information database is mainly used for map display or point search (for example, latitude / longitude search). The POI information database is a database of POI information including location information and name information of points, and is mainly used for point search (for example, free keyword search and category search), point setting of route search conditions, and the like.

The POI may also be information about a temporary event (eg, a festival, a concert, a flea market, a sports match, etc.).

In addition, various databases (taxi price list, walking speed for each age / gender, etc.) may be stored in the storage unit 23 according to the processing content of the information processing system 1.

<Operation example of information processing system 1>
Next, an example of processing by the information processing system 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

The vehicle allocation request reception unit 111 of the terminal device 10 receives a vehicle allocation request from the user (step S11). Specifically, the vehicle dispatch request reception unit 111 acquires the position information of the departure place and the destination input by the user. As another condition, the vehicle dispatch request reception unit 111 may accept the presence / absence of luggage, the number and size of luggage, and the presence / absence and number of accompanying persons. In addition, movement conditions such as the availability of toll roads may be accepted.

Step S11 is performed, for example, by the user starting the application of the terminal device 10 and inputting the departure place and the destination on the vehicle allocation request screen. 5A to 5C show the first example to the third example of the vehicle allocation request screen. In the first example shown in FIG. 5A, the starting point and the destination are accepted by text input. Here, the departure place is entered by the facility name ("Shibuya Station"), and the destination is entered by the address ("Minato-ku 3-8-38").

In the second example shown in FIG. 5B, the starting point is the current location and the destination is the home. In this case, the starting point is automatically set to the current position determined by the positioning unit 16, and the destination is automatically set based on the point information (home address, telephone number, etc.) registered in advance by the user. NS.

In the third example shown in FIG. 5C, the point input is performed on the map A displayed on the display unit 15. Map A is a map including the current position determined by the positioning unit 16. The current position is automatically set as the starting point, and the destination G is set when the user taps on the map A. The starting point may be set by the user from the map as in the case of the destination.

After the user inputs the departure place and the destination as described above, the vehicle allocation request information is transmitted to the server 20 by tapping "Search". That is, the control unit 11 of the terminal device 10 transmits the vehicle allocation request information including the position information of the departure place and the destination to the server 20 via the communication unit 12 (step S12).

The server 20 receives the vehicle allocation request information via the communication unit 22 (step S21). The information acquisition unit 211 of the control unit 21 acquires the position information of the departure place and the destination.

After that, the server 20 determines a disembarkation position that can protect the privacy of the user (step S22). Specifically, first, the route search unit 212 of the control unit 21 searches for a movement route that moves from the starting point to the destination. In the present embodiment, the route search unit 212 searches for a movement route that satisfies each of a plurality of departure points and destinations set by a plurality of users who desire carpooling.

After the movement route is searched, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines the disembarkation position for each user. Specifically, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines the disembarkation position based on the user movement information regarding the movement of the user after disembarking from the vehicle and the vehicle movement information regarding the movement of the vehicle after disembarking the user. As a result, when the user who gets off the vehicle arrives at the destination, the position where the destination is considered to be invisible from the vehicle is determined as the disembarkation position. This will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b). In these figures, reference numeral R indicates a movement route by a vehicle (vehicle movement route).

As shown in FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b), the user U who got off the vehicle C at the disembarkation position Q moves on foot toward the destination G, which is his / her home. On the other hand, the vehicle C starting from the disembarkation position Q goes straight and then turns right at the traffic light T. Since the vehicle C has already turned right when the user U arrives at the destination G, the destination G of the user U cannot be seen from the vehicle C. In this example, the vehicle turns the road, but on the contrary, the vehicle may continue to go straight from the disembarkation position and the user may turn right or left.

The disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines the time from the disembarkation position Q until the vehicle C starts to disappear from the destination G (X) rather than the time (X) required for the user U to move from the disembarkation position Q to the destination G. The disembarkation position Q is determined so that Y) becomes shorter (that is, X ≧ Y). The time X is calculated based on the moving speed of the user U, and the time Y is calculated based on the moving speed of the vehicle C.

For example, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 determines the disembarkation position Q based on the moving speed of the user U who disembarks from the vehicle C and heads for the destination G and the moving speed of the vehicle C running away from the disembarking position Q. At this time, the moving speed of the user may be estimated based on the user attribute database 232. For example, the movement speed is estimated based on the user's gender and age. Further, the moving speed of the vehicle may be estimated based on the legal speed included in the road network information and / or the shape and height difference of the road.

The disembarkation position determined by the disembarkation position determination unit 213 is not limited to one point, and may be a plurality of points.

After the disembarkation position is determined as described above, the control unit 21 of the server 20 transmits the disembarkation position information to the terminal device 10 (step S23), and the terminal device 10 receives the disembarkation position information (step S13). .. The disembarkation position information includes information on the disembarkation position of the vehicle as well as information on the movement route from the departure point to the destination.

Then, the information acquisition unit 112 of the terminal device 10 acquires the disembarkation position information, and the information presentation unit 113 displays the disembarkation position on the display unit 15 (step S14).

FIG. 8 is an example of the disembarkation position selection screen displayed on the terminal device 10. In this example, in addition to the destination home, two drop-off position candidates are displayed in a list format. In addition, a map including a movement route is displayed at the bottom of the screen. The disembarkation position is selected by tapping the disembarkation position (name, address, etc. in this example) desired by the user on the screen. In this way, the information presentation unit 113 presents a plurality of disembarkation positions in a selectable manner.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the information presentation unit 113 may present the fare (fare) for each of a plurality of disembarkation positions in a comparable manner. Further, the information presentation unit 113 may present the distance from the disembarkation position to the destination in a comparable manner for each of the plurality of disembarkation positions. In addition, as a fare, the difference from the case where the reference position (for example, the destination) is set as the disembarkation position may be displayed.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8, when a store such as a convenience store exists at the disembarkation position, the information presentation unit 113 may present a coupon that can be used at the store. If the fare is higher than getting off at the destination, a coupon equivalent to the difference or more may be presented. As a result, an incentive to get off at a position far from the destination can be activated.

Further, the information presentation unit 113 may present a mark indicating that the disembarkation position is a position where the privacy of the user can be ensured in association with the disembarkation position. In the example of the disembarkation position selection screen of FIG. 8, the "safety / security" mark M is displayed at the disembarkation position where privacy can be ensured. As a result, the user can easily identify the disembarkation position where privacy can be ensured, and can select the disembarkation position with peace of mind.

Candidates for drop-off positions are not limited to the case of displaying in a list format, but may be displayed on a map. In the example of the disembarkation position selection screen shown in FIG. 9, the disembarkation positions Q1 to Q4 are displayed on the map around the destination. The distance to the destination and the fare are displayed in a balloon format in association with the disembarkation positions Q1 to Q4. In this case, the disembarkation position is selected by the user tapping the disembarkation position on the map.

On the screens of FIGS. 8 and 9, the display mode (color, font, size, etc.) may be changed so as to be conspicuous at the disembarkation position of the lowest fare. Similarly, the display mode may be displayed so that the disembarkation position other than the destination and the disembarkation position where privacy can be ensured is conspicuous.

According to the above-described embodiment, it is possible to present a disembarkation position that can ensure the privacy of the user to the user who moves from the departure point to the destination in a vehicle that he / she does not drive. As a result, the user can use a mobile service such as a shared taxi with peace of mind. Further, the convenience of the user can be improved by making the distance between the getting-off position and the destination as short as possible while ensuring privacy.

The method of determining the disembarkation position is not limited to the above, and various methods can be considered as shown below.

The disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position Q based on the moving direction of the user U who disembarks from the vehicle C and heads for the destination G and the moving direction of the vehicle C running away from the disembarking position Q. As a result, the getting-off position can be brought closer to the destination, and both privacy protection and convenience can be achieved. For example, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, when the moving direction of the user and the moving direction of the vehicle are opposite to each other, the disembarkation position and the distance between the destinations are different from those in the same direction. The distance can be shortened.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the attributes of the road around the destination. As a result, the getting-off position can be brought closer to the destination, and both privacy protection and convenience can be achieved. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the disembarkation position may be determined in consideration of the presence or absence of an intersection. In addition, the disembarkation position may be determined in consideration of information on the height difference of the road (presence or absence of a slope, etc.), whether it is a one-way street, traffic congestion information, and the like. For example, if the road near the destination is a slope, the distance between the drop-off position and the destination can be shortened while ensuring privacy by setting the place where the vehicle passes the destination and goes down the slope as the drop-off position. can.

In addition, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the walking movement route when the user who disembarks from the vehicle moves to the destination on foot. For example, the walking distance from the disembarking position to the destination should be as short as possible in consideration of the walking route of the user who got off. This will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 (a) and 7 (b). FIG. 7 (a) shows the disembarkation position determined without considering the walking network, and FIG. 7 (b) shows the disembarking position determined without considering the walking network. In these figures, reference numeral R indicates a movement route by a vehicle (vehicle movement route), and reference numeral S indicates a movement route by walking (walking movement route).

In the example of FIG. 7A, the distance L from the destination G is short, and the disembarkation position Q1 that can ensure privacy is determined by the trees in the park. However, since the disembarkation position is determined without considering the walking network, the user U who disembarked at the disembarkation position Q1 needs to walk to the entrance of the park, and the walking distance becomes long. On the other hand, in the example of FIG. 7B, the area near the entrance of the park is determined to be the disembarkation position Q2 by considering the walking network. As a result, the distance between the disembarkation position and the destination G becomes longer, privacy can be further ensured, and the walking distance of the user U becomes shorter, which can improve convenience.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the time when the user who disembarks from the vehicle and heads for the destination stops at the POI existing in the movement route from the disembarkation position to the destination. For example, a POI where a user is likely to stop by, such as a convenience store, a supermarket, a bookstore, or a cafe, is set as the drop-off position. At this time, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may preferentially set the POI having an advertisement such as a coupon as the disembarkation position.

The disembarkation position determination unit 213 may use the POI determined based on the route search result from the departure point to the POI around the destination as the disembarkation position.

As described above, when the disembarkation position is determined in consideration of the time to stop at the POI, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 adds the stop time to the time (X) required for the user to move from the disembarkation position to the destination. .. As a result, the getting-off position can be brought closer to the destination, and both privacy protection and convenience can be achieved. The drop-in time may be a predetermined fixed time, or may be an estimated time based on the type of POI, user attributes, time zone, and the like.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the attribute information of the user. For example, the drop-off position is a store that matches the gender and age of the user. Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of not only the attribute information of the user but also the attribute information of the passenger (including the driver) of the vehicle. For example, if the user and the passenger are of the opposite sex, the disembarkation position that can ensure the privacy of the user may be determined, and if the user and the passenger are of the same sex, the destination may be the disembarkation position.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the weather when the user disembarks the vehicle. For example, when the weather at the time of getting off is expected to be rainy, the user decides the getting-off position where he / she can move to the destination through an arcade or the like without getting wet with rain as much as possible. Information on the weather is obtained by accessing, for example, an external weather forecast server.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the presence / absence, number, size, etc. of the user's luggage. For example, if the number of luggage is large or heavy, the disembarkation position as close as possible to the destination is determined.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the time zone in which the user disembarks the vehicle. For example, when the time of getting off is midnight, the getting-off position where the person can move to the destination through a relatively bright place is determined.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the attributes of the destination. For example, if the destination is a condominium or other condominium, or if the first floor is a restaurant or convenience store building, it is easy to ensure privacy, so the destination or a point near it is set as the drop-off position. On the contrary, if the destination is a detached house or the area around the destination is a field, the disembarkation position is determined so that the distance from the destination is longer than usual.

Further, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 may determine the disembarkation position in consideration of the vehicle fare table. For example, in the case of a fare table in which the fare increases in steps as the travel distance increases, the position immediately before the fare increases is determined as the disembarkation position.

In addition, when the user disembarks last among the passengers, the disembarkation position determination unit 213 takes time (X) for the user to move from the disembarkation position to the destination in order to protect privacy from the driver of the vehicle. ) May be set longer than usual.
