Description

The present invention relates to a technique for identifying a relay point to be passed.

In some cases, you may move to your destination after completing the procedure at one of the multiple relay points. For example, at an airport, passengers go through procedures at a security checkpoint, which is a relay point, and then move to the boarding gate, which is their destination.

Airport security checkpoints are sometimes crowded depending on the number of aircraft departing. In order to depart the aircraft on time, it is necessary to guide passengers to the security checkpoint at the appropriate time and move them to the boarding gate at the appropriate time. In order to depart the aircraft on time, the airport has a rule that "pass the security checkpoint 15 minutes (or 20 minutes) before the departure time".

At the airport, in order to depart the aircraft on time and to improve the convenience of passengers, the security checkpoint visually displays the congestion status of the security checkpoint, displays the estimated waiting time at the security checkpoint, and the security checkpoint. Information is provided by displaying images taken by the camera.
Patent Document 1 describes that the priority procedure is displayed according to the unchecked-in situation and the display prompting the early procedure according to the congestion situation.

The procedure time specifying unit 23 specifies the waiting time for each attribute by multiplying the number of people by the average processing time related to the inspection per person for the attribute. The procedure time specifying unit 23 specifies the total waiting time by totaling the waiting times for each attribute. Then, the procedure time specifying unit 23 adds the average processing time for one person to the total waiting time to specify the procedure time.
The average processing time added to the total waiting time is the average processing time for the attribute specified from the boarding pass information acquired in step S11 when the passenger attribute can be specified from the boarding pass information. If the passenger's attributes cannot be specified from the boarding pass information, the average processing time for those whose attributes are not specified is used.

In step S13, it is assumed that the procedure time for departure A is 5 minutes, the procedure time for departure B is 8 minutes, the procedure time for departure C is 11 minutes, and the procedure time for departure D is 4 minutes. In step S14, it is assumed that the average traveling time is 80 meters per minute, and the total traveling time is specified for each of the plurality of security checkpoints. Then, for departure A, it is 5.63 + 5.83 = 11.46 minutes, for departure B, it is 6.25 + 5.50 = 11.75 minutes, and for departure C, it is 8.00 + 5.00 = 13 minutes. It is .00 minutes and for departure D it is specified to be 8.75 + 6.67 = 15.42 minutes.
