Description
市場故障率0の自動運転車は存在せず、法定速度での事故では重篤な人身事故につながり、特に高速道路ではとても危険であり、レベル4以上の自動運転車は実用化されることはないと考えています。事故や故障を前提とし、事故が発生しても全くけがをしない低速に限定した上で、指定された道路のみを走行することで、安全安心な乗り物となり、本提案は該低速自動運転車に関するものである。 There is no self-driving car on the market with a failure rate of 0, and accidents at legal speeds can lead to serious personal injury accidents, which is especially dangerous on expressways, and self-driving cars at level 4 or higher will never be put into practical use. That's what I think. Assuming accidents and breakdowns occur, by limiting the speed to low speeds where no one will be injured even if an accident occurs, and driving only on designated roads, the vehicle becomes safe and secure, and this proposal is based on low-speed self-driving cars. It is something.
低速自動運転車は、ルート上のどこでも気軽に乗降できるメリットがあるが、数多くの人が、頻繁に乗降し、もともと低速な上に、その都度停止をしての乗降では、時間がかかり過ぎるという課題がある。(エレベーターで、各階のランプがゆっくりでも切り替わると安心ですが、どこかの階での停止時間が長いと、荷物の積み下ろしをやっている?等と思い、それが頻繁ならイライラする。) Low-speed self-driving cars have the advantage of being easy to get on and off at any point along the route, but many people get on and off the vehicle frequently, and they are slow to begin with, and it takes too much time to stop each time to get on and off the vehicle. There are challenges. (In an elevator, it's safe if the lamps on each floor change even slowly, but if the elevator stops for a long time on a certain floor, you wonder if they're loading or unloading luggage, etc., and if it happens frequently, you get irritated.)
乗降時の時間ロスを減らし、低速ながら、ゆっくり歩くよりは早く目的地に到着することができるようにする。 To reduce the time lost when getting on and off, and to arrive at the destination faster than walking slowly, even though the speed is low.
低速自動運転車が走行中に安全に乗降できるようにする。該低速自動運転車のドアが開いたときに、手でつかまることができる取手を設定し、また足置き部を設定し、乗車時は、必要に応じ該低速自動運転車の速度をさらに緩めてもらい、該自動運転車の速度より少し早く歩き、該取手につかまり、足を該足置き部に乗せて乗車し、降車時は該取手につかまったまま、該足置き部に置いた足を、片足ずつ道路におろし、最初は該低速自動運転車の速度に合わせて歩き、次に該取手から手をはなすことで、降車できるようにする。 Enables safe entry and exit of low-speed self-driving cars while driving. When the door of the low-speed self-driving car opens, a handle that can be grabbed by the hand and a foot rest are set, and when getting into the vehicle, the speed of the low-speed self-driving car is further slowed down as necessary. Walk a little faster than the speed of the self-driving car, hold on to the handle, place your feet on the footrest, and get on the vehicle.When getting off the vehicle, hold on to the handle and place your feet on the footrest. The user places one foot on the road at a time, first walks at the speed of the low-speed self-driving car, and then lets go of the handle to get off the vehicle.
設定されたルートであれば、どこにいても24時間呼び出しが可能であり、基本はゆっくりながら、いくら乗降客が頻繁に発生しても、イライラせずに、ある程度の到着時間が読めて、楽しい乗車が安心安全にできる。
また、あらかじめスマートホンアプリで予約が可能なので、待ち時間がほとんどないというメリットがある。
As long as the route is set, you can be called 24 hours a day from anywhere, and although the ride is generally slow, no matter how many passengers get on and off, you can enjoy the ride without getting frustrated and knowing the arrival time to a certain extent. can be done safely and securely.
Additionally, reservations can be made in advance using a smartphone app, which has the advantage of almost no waiting time.
自動運転車のドアが開いたときに、手でつかまることができる取手を設定し、また足置き部を設定し、乗車時は、必要に応じ該低速自動運転車の速度をさらに緩めてもらい、該自動運転車の速度より少し早く歩き、該取手につかまり、足を該足置き部に乗せて乗車し、降車時は該取手につかまったまま、該足置き部に置いた足を、片足ずつ道路におろし、最初は該低速自動運転車の速度に合わせて歩き、次に該取手から手をはなすことで、降車できるようにする。 When the door of the self-driving car opens, a handle that can be grabbed by the hand and a foot rest are set, and when getting into the vehicle, the speed of the low-speed self-driving car is further slowed down as necessary. Walk a little faster than the speed of the self-driving car, hold on to the handle, place your feet on the footrest, and get on the vehicle.When getting off the vehicle, hold on to the handle and place your feet on the footrest, one foot at a time. The user is allowed to get off the vehicle by first walking at the speed of the low-speed self-driving vehicle and then letting go of the handle.
図1において、4個のタイヤの駆動モーターや、かじ取り用モーターは、互いに連動せずに、それぞれが独立して動作し、どれかが故障しても(駆動はしないが、フリーになっており)、低速自動運転車として機能をするようになっている。
該かじ取りモーターによって、各タイヤの向きは、±90度の範囲で方向が変わり、また該駆動モーターの正転及び逆転によって、結局360度の全方向へ進むことが可能である。(真横に動く縦列駐車が可能である。)
例えば、狭い道路幅で双方向走行が難しい場所での、すれ違いをする場合、進行方向と垂直に移動できるため、車の長さ分8mの縦スペースがあれば、そこに該車を入れてすれ違いが可能となる。
また、バッテリーは2個あり、各バッテリーからの配線がそれぞれすべてのモーターとつながっており、片方のバッテリーが故障又は充電量が0になっても、低速自動運転車として機能を維持するようになっている。二つのバッテリーが同時に充電量0とならぬよう、片方の充電量が50%程度残っている状態で、片方が0になり、その状態で交換をすると効率が良いので、両バッテリーが均等に使われるように設定する。(自動交換ハウスでのロボットによる自動交換を行う。)
乗降口のドアの内側には、二個の取手と足置きが付帯しており、乗車時は、該低速自動運転車の速度より少し早く歩き、あるいは駆け足をして、該取手につかまり、足を該足置き部に乗せて乗車し、さらにつかまり棒につかまりながら歩き、安全な位置まで移動する。
降車時は該取手につかまったまま、該足置き部に置いた足を、片足ずつ道路におろし、最初は該低速自動運転車の速度に合わせ歩き、次に該取手から手をはなすことで、降車できるようにする。
高齢者や障害者等あるいは目が見えない等で、該低速自動運転車が停車をしてから、乗降する場合には、上記ステップを踏まずに、つかまり棒につかまりながら乗降する。必要に応じて周囲の人は、アシストを行う。
尚、該低速自動運転車には、複数のカメラとAI(チャットGPT)が搭載されており、周囲の状況に問題がないと確認がされてからドアをあけ、また客が確実に乗車あるいは下車をしたかどうかを確認してから、ドアをゆっくりと閉める。
エレベーターのドアと同様に、手や足が挟まったら、該ドアが一旦開くシステムとなっている。
さらに、該低速自動運転車の該AIは人の動作やしぐさから、乗りたがっているかが分かるので、「乗りますか?」と声をかけ、「乗ります」等の会話によって乗ることが明確になり、該AIは乗車時の搭乗者からの速度指示や停止指示を確認し、該指示通りの速度あるいは停止をして、ドアをあけるようにする。
降車時には、客は「N走行降車」(=時速6km)、「S走行降車」(=時速3km)、「停止降車」かを、ボタンの種類の選択で決定する。
尚、低速自動運転車のルート上には、頻繁にバリアフリー乗降場を設定し、車いすの人や乳母車の人がそこに居て、乗車の意思表示があれば、該低速自動運転車は、バリアフリー部ギリギリに停車し、該AIが「ドアを開けます」と声をかけてから、ゆっくりとドアをあけ、乗車が確認されたら、ドアを閉める。
図2において、低速自動運転車の実際の運用例を示す。
In Figure 1, the four tire drive motors and steering motor are not interlocked with each other and operate independently, so even if one of them fails (it does not drive, but is free). ), it is designed to function as a low-speed self-driving car.
The steering motor allows the orientation of each tire to change direction within a range of ±90 degrees, and by forward and reverse rotation of the drive motor, it is possible to move in all directions of 360 degrees. (Parallel parking that moves directly sideways is possible.)
For example, when passing each other on a narrow road where it is difficult to drive in both directions, you can move perpendicular to the direction of travel, so if there is a vertical space of 8 m for the length of the car, you can put the car in there and pass each other. becomes possible.
In addition, there are two batteries, and the wiring from each battery is connected to all the motors, so even if one battery fails or the charge level becomes zero, it will continue to function as a low-speed self-driving car. ing. In order to prevent two batteries from becoming 0 at the same time, it is more efficient to replace the battery when one reaches 0 with about 50% of its charge remaining, so both batteries are used equally. Set it so that (Automatic exchange is performed by a robot at the automatic exchange house.)
There are two handles and a footrest on the inside of the entrance/exit door.When getting on the vehicle, walk or run a little faster than the speed of the low-speed self-driving car, hold on to the handles, and rest your feet. The user places the footrest on the footrest, gets on the vehicle, and then walks while holding on to the gripping bar to move to a safe position.
When getting off the vehicle, while holding on to the handle, place the feet placed on the foot rest on the road, one foot at a time, walk at the speed of the low-speed self-driving vehicle, and then let go of the handle. Make it possible to get off the train.
If an elderly person, a disabled person, or a visually impaired person wants to get on and off the vehicle after the low-speed self-driving vehicle has stopped, the user does not take the above steps and gets on and off while holding on to the grab bar. Those around you will assist if necessary.
The low-speed self-driving car is equipped with multiple cameras and AI (Chat GPT), and it opens the door after confirming that there are no problems with the surrounding environment, and also ensures that passengers get on or off the vehicle. Make sure you have done so before closing the door slowly.
Similar to elevator doors, the system is such that if a hand or foot gets caught, the door will open once.
Furthermore, the AI of the low-speed self-driving car can tell whether a person wants to ride based on their movements and gestures, so it is clear that the person wants to ride by saying, "Do you want to ride?" and a conversation such as "I will ride." The AI checks the speed and stop instructions given by the passenger when boarding the vehicle, speeds or stops as instructed, and then opens the door.
When getting off the train, the customer decides whether to get off the vehicle in N mode (6km/h), get off in S mode (3km/h), or get off at stop by pressing the button.
In addition, barrier-free pick-up and drop-off areas are frequently set up along the routes of low-speed self-driving cars, and if a person in a wheelchair or in a baby carriage is present and expresses an intention to board the vehicle, the low-speed self-driving car will The vehicle stops right next to the barrier-free area, and the AI says, "Open the door," then slowly opens the door, and once it confirms that the vehicle is boarding, closes the door.
FIG. 2 shows an example of actual operation of a low-speed self-driving vehicle.
設定されたルートであれば、どこにいても24時間呼び出しが可能であり、基本はゆっくりながら、いくら乗降客が頻繁に発生しても、イライラせずに、ある程度の到着時間が読めて、楽しい乗車が安心安全にできる。
また、あらかじめ予約が可能なので、予約の時間い合わせて乗車すれば、待ち時間がほとんどないというメリットがある。
As long as the route is set, you can be called 24 hours a day from anywhere, and although the ride is generally slow, no matter how many passengers get on and off, you can enjoy the ride without getting frustrated and knowing the arrival time to a certain extent. can be done safely and securely.
Another benefit is that you can make reservations in advance, so if you board at the same time as your reservation, you won't have to wait long at all.
