Description

Transportation system for dispatched vehicles, shared terminal control device, and shared terminal control method

The present invention relates to a transportation system for dispatched vehicles, a shared terminal control device, and a method for controlling a shared terminal.

Conventionally, a vehicle sharing support system has been known that shortens the waiting time for transferring to a shared vehicle (for example, Patent Document 1). The vehicle sharing support system described in Patent Document 1 acquires user movement information related to the public transportation service used by the user, the departure and arrival point at which the user is scheduled to get off, and the user's destination, and provides information on the user's movement to the departure and arrival point at which the user is scheduled to get off. User group information indicating a user group for each destination is generated for users who are estimated to arrive at the departure/arrival point at which they are scheduled to get off within a predetermined time period including the arrival time. Then, the vehicle sharing support system allocates an available shared vehicle to the user group indicated by the user group information, and transmits the user group information to the provider of the shared vehicle. In such a vehicle sharing support system, the user movement information input screen displayed on the user's mobile terminal displays a list of routes to be used, a list of scheduled departure/arrival points, a list of flights to be used, and a destination input box. touches the list and box on the screen to input user movement information, and the mobile terminal transmits the input information to the vehicle sharing support system.

JP2020-135642A

However, in the above-mentioned vehicle sharing support system, in order to use the shared vehicle, the user needs to input multiple pieces of information by looking at the input screen of his or her mobile terminal, making the operation complicated. There is a problem that.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a transportation system for dispatched vehicles, a shared terminal control device, and a method for controlling a shared terminal, which can prevent the user's information input operations from becoming complicated.

The present invention extracts candidate locations for at least one of the alighting point where the user gets off from the dispatched vehicle and the destination to which the user heads using the dispatched vehicle, based on the user's usage history of the transportation system. Alternatively, the above problem is solved by acquiring information on the candidate location and displaying the information on the candidate location on the display device of the shared terminal when a user's approach state is detected.

According to the present invention, user convenience can be improved.

An embodiment of a transportation system for dispatched vehicles according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram for explaining a transportation system for dispatched vehicles according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the transportation system for dispatched vehicles. Referring to FIG. 1, the transportation system for dispatched vehicles according to the present embodiment is a system for allocating a vehicle for transferring from a user's boarding point to a destination. The transportation system includes dispatched vehicles (hereinafter also referred to as patrol vehicles) that travel in a patrol area 100 and dispatched vehicles that travel in a non-patrolled area 200. The patrol vehicle is a vehicle that travels around a designated travel route within the patrol area 100. The patrol area 100 includes a patrol route and pick-up and drop-off stations installed at predetermined intervals on the patrol route. The patrol vehicle travels on a patrol route and stops at boarding and alighting points on the patrol route. A user using the transportation system gets on and off the patrol vehicle from a boarding/disembarkation point on the patrol route. The boarding and alighting points on the patrol route can be specified as the user's starting point and/or destination, and can also be set as the user's transit point. The dispatched vehicle traveling in the non-patrolling area 200 travels on a travel route that connects a pick-up or drop-off place designated by the user and a transfer point on the patrol travel route.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1, if the user specifies a pick-up/drop-off point A in the patrol area 100 as the departure point and a pick-up/drop-off point C (for example, home) in the area 200 as the destination, the transportation system , determines a travel plan for moving from boarding point A to boarding point C. The travel plan includes information regarding the travel of the dispatched vehicle, such as the dispatched vehicle in which the user should ride, the route of the dispatched vehicle, and the arrival and departure times of the dispatched vehicle at the pick-up and drop-off points. In the example shown in Figure 1, the travel plan is to travel with patrol vehicle X from boarding point A to transfer point B on the patrol travel route, transfer from patrol vehicle The plan is to travel to destination C within patrol area 200 by dispatched vehicle Y. Note that the user's starting point and/or destination do not necessarily have to be within the patrolling area 100, but may also be the non-circulating area 200, and both the user's starting point and destination may be within the patrolling area 100 or the non-circulating area. It may be within 200. In addition, the means of transportation from the departure point to the transit point or from the transit point to the destination need not be a dispatched vehicle, but may be public transportation such as a bus, train, airplane, or taxi, or multiple transportation methods. A combination of methods may be used.

The dispatch vehicle does not necessarily need to patrol, and the driving area of the dispatch vehicle does not need to be the patrol travel area. For example, in the example of FIG. 1, vehicle The shortest route from the destination C to the destination C may be set as the second travel route. Area 100 becomes the driving area of vehicle X. In the example of FIG. 1, since the destination (the user's drop-off point) is specified outside area 100, the user transfers the dispatched vehicle from X to Y at the transfer point, and from the first traveling route to the first Move to the driving route. Note that in the following description, the travel area 100 of the dispatch vehicle will be described as a patrol travel area of the dispatch vehicle, but the travel area 100 does not have to be a patrol area. Alternatively, the area 200 may be a patrol area.

When using a ride dispatch service provided by a transportation system, a user uses a ride dispatch vehicle or another means of transportation other than a dispatch vehicle to move to a boarding point where a shared terminal is installed. When a user approaches the shared terminal, the shared terminal detects the user and sends information about the detected user to the server. The server identifies the user based on the user's information, and extracts a candidate location for the drop-off location of the dispatch vehicle and/or the user's destination based on the usage history of the identified user. The shared terminal acquires information about the candidate location from the server and displays the candidate location on the display screen of the shared terminal. The user selects a desired candidate location on the display screen of the shared terminal. Then, when the candidate location is selected, a dispatch vehicle headed for the candidate location is assigned to the user, and the user is ready to board the dispatch vehicle. As described above, in the transportation system according to the present embodiment, the user checks the screen of the display device of the shared terminal that displays candidate locations such as destinations, and performs a selection operation to select a candidate location. You will be able to use the dispatch vehicle only by doing so.

Note that the user may reserve a dispatch vehicle in order to use the dispatch service provided by the transportation system. A user accesses the server using a user terminal or a shared terminal and inputs information necessary for reserving a dispatched vehicle. Based on the input information, the server assigns the user a desired dispatched vehicle and completes the reservation. This allows the user to use the reserved dispatch vehicle.

Common terminals 10 are installed at boarding and alighting points along the patrol route. The shared terminal 10 is a device (for example, a digital signage, a roadside terminal) that communicates with a server, displays images and characters on a flat display or a projector, and outputs guidance information regarding the transportation system. The shared terminal 10 does not necessarily need to be installed on the roadside. For example, the shared terminal 10 may be installed in a parking space, or may be a terminal used at a facility such as a store. Furthermore, the shared terminal 10 is not necessarily limited to being used outdoors, and may be a terminal that is used indoors. Furthermore, the shared terminal 10 may be a terminal that is movable by the user. Note that in the following explanation, the shared terminal 10 will be explained as a roadside terminal. The shared terminal 10 is installed at each boarding and alighting point on the patrol route. The guidance information of the transportation system is not limited to general guidance information of the system (information for an unspecified number of users), but is guidance information for detected users.

For example, in the example of FIG. 1, user P rides in patrol vehicle X from boarding point A and arrives at transfer point B. When the user P approaches the shared terminal 10 installed at a transit point, the shared terminal 10 detects the user P and causes the display device of the shared terminal 10 to display information about the candidate destination of the user P. Assume that in the past, user P rode in dispatch vehicle X, traveled from boarding point A to transfer point B, transferred to dispatch vehicle Y at transfer point B, and moved to destination C. Such behavior history of user P is stored in the server as a usage history, and the server selects the destination as a candidate destination from transit point B for the current usage based on the usage history of user P. Extract C. Then, candidate locations including destination C are displayed on the display device of the shared terminal 10. That is, information on candidate locations including destination C becomes guidance information for user P. Then, when the user P selects the destination C, the server allocates the dispatch vehicle Y traveling from the transit point B toward the destination C to the user P's reservation.

As shown in FIG. 2, the transportation system according to this embodiment includes a shared terminal 10, a server 20, a dispatch vehicle 30, and a user terminal 40. The shared terminal 10 is a terminal set at a boarding point and/or alighting point of a dispatched vehicle, and is a device for displaying guidance information, advertising information, etc. of the transportation system. The server 20 manages dispatched vehicles. The dispatch vehicle 30 is a vehicle dispatched to a user, and may be an electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, a vehicle using only an engine as a driving source, or the like. Further, the dispatch vehicle is a vehicle that is driven by a driver, a vehicle that has an autonomous driving function, or the like. A vehicle having an autonomous driving function may be a vehicle capable of autonomous driving without driver intervention, such as an unmanned taxi, or a manned taxi. The user terminal 40 is a terminal owned by a user. The shared terminal 10, the server 20, the dispatch vehicle 30, and the user terminal 40 are connected to each other so that they can send and receive information via a telecommunications network NW such as the Internet.

The shared terminal 10 includes a shared terminal control device 11, a display device 18, and a communication device 19. The shared terminal control device 11 is a device that controls the shared terminals 10 installed on the patrol route of the dispatch vehicle 30, and executes each function by storing a program in a ROM (Read Only Memory) and executing the program. The computer is equipped with a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and a RAM (Random Access Memory). The shared terminal control device 11 has a function of detecting the approach of the user to the terminal device, a function of acquiring information regarding the drop-off point of the dispatch vehicle or a candidate destination of the user, and a function of displaying guidance information on the display device 18. , a function of accepting input operations by users, a function of accepting input of reservations, a link establishment function of establishing a link between the shared terminal and the user terminal, etc. The shared terminal control device 11 includes a detection section 12, an information acquisition section 13, a display control section 14, an operation input section 15, a reservation reception section 16, and a link establishment section 17 as functional blocks for executing various functions. There is. Note that the shared terminal control device 11 is not limited to the function of the detection unit 12, and may have other functions such as a function of managing reservations for dispatched vehicles, and may have some of the functions included in the server 20. You may do so.

The detection unit 12 detects a user approach state, which is a state in which the user approaches the shared terminal 10. The user proximity state is a state in which the user is located within a predetermined range (for example, within several meters) from the installation position of the shared terminal 10. The detection unit 12 detects the user, for example, by face authentication or line-of-sight detection using a camera installed in the shared terminal 10. The detection unit 12 may detect the user based on the user's gesture. Alternatively, the detection unit 12 may detect the user's approach state using position information of the user terminal.

The detection unit 12 detects the user using the following flow, for example. The detection unit 12 detects the user's face from the captured image of the activated camera, and determines whether the detected state has been maintained for a predetermined period of time. For example, if a user passes in front of the camera, the face cannot be detected for a predetermined period of time, so detection is disabled. If the user can be detected, the detection unit 12 acquires the user's biometric information. The user's biometric information is information used to identify the user, such as the user's facial expression, irises, and gait (how to walk). The user registers a facial image during initial registration to use the transportation system, and the server 20 stores the user's registration information in a database. Registration of a user's biometric information (personal information), such as a facial image, is required in order to use the transportation system. Note that the user's biometric information only needs to be managed by the shared terminal 10 and/or the server 20.

The detection unit 12 compares the biometric information acquired from the facial image with the biometric information managed by the server 20, and if the comparison is successful, determines that the registered user has been identified (authentication is complete). If the user has been identified, the detection unit 12 transmits a flag to the server 20 indicating that the user has been identified. Note that if the detection unit 12 is unable to identify a registered user from the biometric information, the shared terminal control device 11 displays a guidance screen to prompt the user to perform initial registration to use the transportation system. It may also be displayed on the device 18. Note that the detection unit 12 detects a state in which the user approaches the shared terminal 10 and is able to identify that the approaching user is a registered user using the transportation system (a state in which the individual user can be identified). may be detected as a user approach state.

Note that the process for identifying the individual user by the detection unit 12 may be executed by the server 20. When identifying a user (personal authentication) on the server side, the detection unit 12 transmits information on the detected user (for example, a captured image) to the server 20 . The server 20 stores the user's biometric information in a database 25, and identifies the individual by referring to the stored user biometric information.

The information acquisition unit 13 acquires information on candidate locations extracted based on the usage history of the transportation system by the user. The extracted candidate locations are at least one of the alighting location where the user gets off from the dispatch vehicle and the destination to which the user is heading using the dispatch vehicle. Note that, in the following description, the alighting place where the user gets off from the dispatched vehicle and the destination to which the user heads using the dispatched vehicle are also collectively referred to as "destination candidates." In the example of FIG. 1, a user P gets off the patrol vehicle X at a transit point B and approaches a shared terminal 10 installed at the transit point B. The detection unit 12 detects the state of proximity of the user to the user P, and transmits a flag to the server 20 indicating that the user has been identified. The information acquisition unit 13 acquires information regarding the destination candidate of the user P from the server 20 as a response signal to the flag. In the example of FIG. 1, the information regarding user P's destination candidates includes at least information about destination C.

Additionally, the information acquisition unit 13 may acquire reservation information for the dispatched vehicle 30 as guidance information for the user. The reservation information of the dispatched vehicle 30 is information regarding the travel plan of the dispatched vehicle reserved by the user using the transportation system, and includes time information such as the departure time of the dispatched vehicle 30, position information such as the departure time, and information about the dispatched vehicle 30. Information on driving routes, etc. The travel plan of the dispatched vehicle 30 may include information on the transfer location, the transit vehicle 30, etc. when the dispatched vehicle 30 transfers.

The display control unit 14 controls the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10. When the detection unit 12 detects the user's approach state, it causes the display device 18 to display information regarding the destination candidate. When the detection unit 12 detects the user approach state and the information acquisition unit 13 acquires information on the destination candidate, the display control unit 14 displays the information on the destination candidate acquired by the information acquisition unit 13 on the display device 18. A control command is generated and output to the display device 18.

The operation input unit 15 accepts input operations by the user. For example, when the display device 18 is a touch panel display, the operation input unit 15 controls the display device 18 and receives input operations by touch operations on the display device 18 . For example, when the user selects a destination using a touch operation while information on destination candidates is displayed on the display screen of the display device 18, the operation input unit 15 accepts the destination selection operation. Note that if the destination candidates displayed on the display device 18 do not include the destination desired by the user, the user may specify any destination on the screen of the display device 18. . Further, the user does not necessarily have to operate the touch panel of the display device 18, but may operate the user terminal 40, and the shared terminal 10 may receive input operations via the user terminal 40.

If the input operation input to the operation input unit 15 is a reservation operation for reserving a dispatch vehicle, the reservation reception unit 16 accepts the reservation operation and displays a reservation information screen for reserving a dispatch vehicle. It is displayed on the display device 18. The reservation reception unit 16 cooperates with the reservation management unit 21 of the server 20 to proceed with control processing for reservation of a dispatched vehicle. Specifically, the reservation reception unit 16 acquires information necessary for the reservation from the server 20 via the information acquisition unit 13, executes the reservation application, and displays a guidance screen for accepting the reservation operation on the display device 18. indicate. When a touch operation is performed on the display device 18 , the reservation accepting unit 16 accepts a reservation for using the dispatched vehicle 30 and transmits the accepted information to the server 20 . The reservation reception unit 16 cooperates with the reservation management unit 21 of the server 20 to perform reservation processing for the dispatched vehicle 30 so as to satisfy the user's wishes.

The link establishment unit 17 establishes a link between the shared terminal 10 and the user terminal 40 and outputs information to the user terminal 40 via the communication device 19. The link is a communication network that connects the shared terminal 10 and the user terminal 40, and is, for example, a short-range communication network such as Bluetooth (registered trademark). For example, when the user terminal 40 enters within a range where a link can be established (within a range where short-distance communication is possible), the link establishment unit 17 sends an e-mail to the user terminal 40, and the user terminal When the user terminal 40 receives the email and permits link establishment, the link establishment unit 17 establishes a link with the user terminal 40 . Note that the detection unit 12 may use the establishment of a link by the link establishment unit 17 to detect the user approach state. That is, when the link establishment section 17 is able to establish a link with the user terminal 40, the detection section 12 may detect that the user is approaching.

Further, if the link establishment unit 17 is able to establish a link between the shared terminal 10 and the user terminal 40, the link establishment unit 17 may output the guidance information acquired by the information acquisition unit 13 to the user terminal. Further, when the link establishment unit 17 acquires a control command for displaying the guidance information acquired by the information acquisition unit 13 on the display device of the user terminal 40 from the display control unit 14, the link establishment unit 17 transmits the control command to the user. It may also be sent to the terminal.

The display device 18 displays information on destination candidates, guidance information on the transportation system, and reservation information. The display device 18 is, for example, a flat display, a projector, or the like. The communication device 19 connects to the telecommunications network NW and sends and receives signals to and from the server 20, dispatch vehicle 30, and user terminal 40. The communication device 19 can also connect to the user terminal 40 through a dedicated line if the link establishing unit 17 has established a link between the shared terminal 10 and the user terminal 40 .

The server 20 includes a reservation management section 21, a vehicle management section 22, a usage history storage section 23, a candidate location extraction section 24, a database 25, and a communication device 26. The server 20 controls the shared terminal 10 and the dispatch vehicle 30, and performs transportation system usage registration, user information management, reservation management of the dispatch vehicle, and the like. The server 20 has a program to be executed in order to manage the dispatch service using the transportation system, and executes various functions by executing the program. The server 20 includes a ROM that stores programs, a CPU for executing the programs, and the like.

The server 20 has a reservation management section 21, a vehicle management section 22, a usage history storage section 23, and a candidate location extraction section 24 as functional blocks. Note that the reservation management unit 21, vehicle management unit 22, usage history storage unit 23, and candidate location extraction unit 24 are functional blocks for executing some of the functions of the server 20, and the server 20 is configured as shown in FIG. It is also possible to execute functions other than those of the functional blocks shown in .

The reservation management unit 21 manages reservation information including user information of users who have registered to use the transportation system, dispatched vehicles reserved by the users, and travel plans for the reserved dispatched vehicles. In order to use the transportation system, the user operates the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40 to perform initial registration. As initial registration, the user may input personal information such as the user's name and home address, and may further input attribute information indicating the user's attributes such as the user's gender and preferences. The reservation management unit 21 manages user information by storing information at the time of initial registration input via the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40 in the database 25.

When reserving a ride-hailing vehicle, the user operates the application software on the user terminal 40 that he or she owns, and enters information necessary for reserving the ride-hailing vehicle, such as the user's desired departure point, departure time, number of passengers, destination, and arrival time. Enter the information. The information necessary for the reservation is not limited to the operation of the user terminal 40, and may be input by the operation of the shared terminal 10. The input reservation information is transmitted to the server 20, and the reservation management unit 21 of the server 20 extracts a dispatched vehicle 30 that can meet the user's request from among the dispatched vehicles 30 and determines a travel plan. In the example of FIG. 1, the reservation management unit 21 determines a travel plan for traveling from a boarding point A to a destination C. Further, the reservation management unit 21 may determine the travel plan while confirming the user's wishes, such as the dispatch vehicle 30, boarding and alighting points, boarding and alighting times, and transit points. For example, when the user inputs a tourist spot, a commercial facility, etc. as a desired destination, the reservation management unit 21 extracts points where the dispatch vehicle 30 can arrive as destination candidates in order of proximity to the desired destination. , information on destination candidates is transmitted to the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40. Then, the user operates the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40 to determine a destination from among the destination candidates.

The reservation management unit 21 records the determined travel plan in the database 25 as reservation information for the dispatched vehicle 30 after linking it with the personal information of the user who made the reservation. Further, the reservation management unit 21 transmits the reservation information stored in the database 25 to the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40 in response to a request from the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40.

The vehicle management unit 22 manages the operation of the dispatch vehicle 30 using the travel plan of the dispatch vehicle 30, the current position of the dispatch vehicle 30, and the current traffic situation. The travel plan of the dispatch vehicle 30 may be determined according to a predetermined operation schedule as long as it is within the patrol area 100. The vehicle allocation plan for the non-visited area 200, which is outside the patrol area 100, corresponds to a travel plan determined by the reservation management unit 21 according to the user's wishes. The vehicle management unit 22 also updates the travel plan according to traffic conditions and the like. The vehicle management unit 22 also calculates a travel route included in the travel plan. When the user selects a destination from the name of the destination candidate by touch operation on the display device 18 while the information of the destination candidate is displayed on the display screen of the display device 18, the vehicle management unit 22 calculates the travel route of the dispatched vehicle traveling toward the selected destination. For example, in the example of FIG. 1, it is a travel route from transfer point B to destination C, and is a travel route of dispatch vehicle Y. Note that the vehicle management section 32 in this embodiment corresponds to the "calculation section" of the present invention.

The usage history storage unit 23 stores the usage history by acquiring the usage history of the transportation system by the user and storing the acquired usage history in the database 25. The usage history of the transportation system is the usage history of the dispatch vehicle 30 used by the user. Further, the usage history of the transportation system may include the user's behavior history. The usage history includes at least one of the following: the location where the user got on and/or got off the dispatch vehicle 30, the time when the user got on and/or got off the dispatch vehicle 30, the travel route of the dispatch vehicle 30, the vehicle type of the dispatch vehicle 30, etc. Contains one piece of information. In addition, the action history includes facilities or places where the user stopped by using the dispatch vehicle 30, facilities where the user stopped before getting on the dispatch vehicle 30, facilities where the user went after getting off the dispatch vehicle 30, facilities where the user went to dispatch the dispatch vehicle 30, etc. It includes at least one of information such as the usage history of means of transportation used other than the vehicle 30, and places where the user frequently stays, such as his or her home. Further, the usage history and action history may include information on other users with whom the user acted together.

For example, in FIG. 1, a user P, whose home is point C, heads to a transfer point B in a private car driven by a family member, transfers to a dispatch vehicle X at the transfer point B, gets on the dispatch vehicle Head to A and get off the dispatched vehicle X at point A. Further, it is assumed that the user P eats at a restaurant S on the way from the point C to the transit point B, gets off the dispatch vehicle X at the point A, and then arrives at the hospital T as the user P's destination. In such user behavior, the usage history of user P includes information on transfer point B (boarding point) and point A (dropoff point), information on boarding and alighting time of dispatched vehicle X, and the like. The action history of the user P includes information regarding the restaurant S and the hospital T, usage information of the private car, information of fellow passengers, and the like.

The usage history storage unit 23 acquires the user's usage history of the transportation system and the user's behavior history from the user terminal 40, the reservation information of the dispatched vehicle 30, the travel plan of the dispatched vehicle 30, and input information from the user. When the user uses the dispatched vehicle 30 according to the reservation information of the dispatched vehicle 30, the usage history storage unit 23 may acquire the reservation information as the usage history. Further, the usage history storage unit 23 may acquire the travel plan after the dispatched vehicle 30 travels as the usage history.

After the user completes use of the dispatch vehicle 30, the usage history storage unit 23 connects to the dispatch vehicle 30 and extracts the usage history from the travel history data of the dispatch vehicle 30. Further, the usage history storage unit 23 may extract data regarding the user's behavior history from the user terminal 40 when the server 20 and the user terminal 40 are connected. The user terminal 40 has applications such as the terminal's GPS function, ticket arrangement for accommodation facilities and transportation facilities, and user schedule management. Data related to the history is specified and transmitted to the server 20. Thereby, the user terminal 40 can acquire the user's action history.

The candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts candidate destination locations based on the user's usage history of the transportation system detected by the detection unit 12. The candidate location extracting unit may extract at least one of the alighting location where the user gets off from the dispatch vehicle 30 and the destination to which the user is heading using the dispatch vehicle 30 as the candidate destination location. Specifically, when the user approaches the shared terminal 10 and is detected by the detection unit 12, the candidate location extraction unit 24 identifies the user's action history up to the time the user arrives at the shared terminal 10. When the user uses the dispatch vehicle 30 to move to the shared terminal 10, the user's usage history of the dispatch vehicle 30 corresponds to the action history. The candidate location extraction unit 24 refers to the database 25 and identifies the detected user's past usage history of the transportation system. The candidate location extraction unit 24 compares the most recent action history with the usage history of the transportation system stored in the database 25, and calculates the correlation. Then, the candidate location extraction unit 24 identifies the usage history that has a high correlation with the most recent action history from among the usage history of the transportation system stored in the database 25, and identifies the alighting point and the usage history indicated by the highly correlated usage history. /Or extract the destination as a destination candidate. Note that, as an example of the condition for extracting destination candidates by the candidate location extraction unit 24, the user approaches the shared terminal 10 and is detected by the detection unit 12. However, under this condition, the shared terminal 10 does not necessarily have to The location is not limited to a transfer point for connecting transportation means, but may be a departure point of a dispatched vehicle within the patrol area 100 (corresponding to the boarding point A in FIG. 1). Furthermore, the behavior history and usage history that are compared to calculate the correlation are not limited to the most recent history, but may be behavior history and usage history within a predetermined period in the past.

The candidate location extracting unit 24 may extract not only candidate destinations but also candidate locations of transit locations for connecting multiple means of transportation. A user approaches a shared terminal 10 installed at a boarding and alighting point on a patrol route near a starting point. When the detection unit of the shared terminal 10 detects a user approaching state, the candidate location extraction unit 24 refers to the database 25 to obtain the usage history of the detected user, and determines the boarding location of the detected user's dispatch vehicle. Extract the usage history as a starting point. The candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts transit locations that have been used many times as candidate locations from the extracted usage history. At this time, the candidate location extraction unit 24 may extract destinations and/or drop-off locations that have been used frequently from the extracted usage history as candidate destination locations.

The database 25 stores personal information of registered users, reservation information of dispatched vehicles, usage history of the transportation system by users, behavior history of users, etc. The communication device 26 is connected to the telecommunications network NW and sends and receives signals to and from the shared terminal 10, the dispatch vehicle 30, and the user terminal 40.

The dispatch vehicle 30 is a vehicle used for transporting users under the management of the server 20. The dispatch vehicle 30 includes at least a communication device 31 that can communicate with the server 20. The dispatch vehicle 30 transmits current vehicle position information to the server 20 via the communication device 31. The communication device 31 connects to the telecommunications network NW and sends and receives signals to and from the server 20 . The communication device 31 may communicate with the shared terminal 10 and the user terminal 40.

The user terminal 40 is a terminal owned by the user, and is a portable terminal device such as a smartphone or a tablet terminal. The user terminal 40 has a display and displays the transportation system guidance information transmitted from the shared terminal 10 or the server 20 on the screen of the display.

Next, with reference to FIG. 3, the user's actions and the control processing of the shared terminal 10 and the server 20 will be explained as the user moves to the boarding point, transfers to the dispatch vehicle 30 at the transfer point, and arrives at the destination. do. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the user's behavior and the flow of control processing of the shared terminal 10 and the server 20.

In step S1, the user moves to a boarding/disembarking point on the patrol route using the dispatch vehicle 30, a means of transportation other than the dispatch vehicle 30, walking, a private car, or other means of transportation. In step S2, the detection unit 12 of the shared terminal 10 installed at the boarding/disembarkation area detects the user's approach state. In step S3, the server 20 performs authentication processing for user identification.

Here, the control processing in step S2 and step S3 will be explained. FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the display screen of the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10. FIG. 4(a) shows a state in which multiple users are detected, and FIG. 4(b) shows a state in which one user is detected. Indicates the detected state.

A detection area that can detect the user's face, iris, gait, etc. is set within the display screen of the display device 18, and when the user's face, etc. is displayed within the area, the display device 18 performs image processing. Detect the user. As shown in FIG. 4A, when the detection unit 12 detects a plurality of users on the screen of the display device 18, the detection unit 12 displays a "Start Authentication" button on the screen. If multiple users are displayed on the screen, it may not be possible to select the target for identifying the individual, so when the start of authentication is displayed and the user touches the start authentication button, authentication for identifying the user starts. do. Further, the detection unit 12 displays the detected users on the screen by displaying a circle around the face of the detected user. By checking this circle display, the user can determine whether the user to be authenticated has been successfully detected.

Additionally, the detection unit 12 starts a timer in accordance with the display of the "Start Authentication" button. The detection unit 12 starts authentication when there is a touch operation on the "Start Authentication" button within a predetermined time, or when a predetermined time elapses without a touch operation on the "Start Authentication" button. The detection unit 12 transmits an image of the selected person to the server 20 together with an authentication start flag in order to start authentication. The selection may be performed by the user's touch operation, or a person surrounded by a circle may be automatically selected.

As shown in FIG. 4(b), when the detection unit 12 detects one user on the screen of the display device 18, the detection unit 12 displays the "Cancel Authentication" button on the screen and uses a timer. Start. Also, as in the case of multiple users, the detection unit 12 displays a circle mark on the face of the detected user. If there is only one user detected, the certainty of user detection is higher than when multiple users are detected, so there is no button displaying something like "Start authentication", and the user will be identified after a predetermined period of time has passed. Authentication begins. On the other hand, there may be cases where the other user who wants to be authenticated wants to be shown on the screen, so a "Cancel Authentication" button is provided, and if the user wants to show the other user on the screen, the user can touch the "Cancel Authentication" button. Then, user detection may be performed again. Then, the detection unit 12 transmits the image of the detected person together with an authentication start flag to the server 20 in order to start authentication. Note that the person's image corresponds to the user's personal information.

When the server 20 receives the authentication start flag from the detection unit 12 of the shared terminal 10, it accesses the database 25 that stores the user's biometric information based on the personal information that is the user's image. The database 25 may include, for example, a plurality of databases separated by elements of biological information. Elements of biometric information include, for example, a face image, iris information, and a gait model. The server 20 compares the image of the person obtained from the detection unit 12 with the biometric information stored in the database 25. If multiple users are detected, each user is identified. For example, if multiple users are detected and some of the users can be identified from the facial image, but the remaining users cannot be identified, the detection unit 12 uses other elements of biometric information for authentication. I do. Then, the server 20 outputs the authentication result to the shared terminal 10 or the user terminal 40. Note that authentication may be performed by combining a plurality of databases separated for each element of biometric information.

When the user is specified by the control process in step S3, in step S4, the candidate location extraction unit 24 of the server 20 acquires the position information of the shared terminal 10 that detected the user. In step S5, the candidate location extraction unit 24 acquires the detected user's action history. When the user travels to the shared terminal 10 using the dispatch vehicle 30, the candidate location extraction unit 24 acquires the action history from the travel plan (travel history) of the dispatch vehicle 30 in which the user was riding. When the user moves to the shared terminal 10 by means other than the dispatch vehicle 30, the candidate location extracting unit 24 connects to the user terminal 40 and acquires the behavior history from data related to the user's behavior history. Further, the candidate location extraction unit 24 accesses the database and acquires the usage history of the detected user.

In step S6, the candidate location extraction unit 24 acquires time information when the user operated the shared terminal 10. For example, the timing at which the authentication start flag is received from the detection unit 12 is assumed to be the time when the shared terminal 10 is operated.

In step S7, the candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts destination candidates. The candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts destination candidates in the following manner. The usage history stored in the database 25 includes the departure point/transfer point/destination of the dispatch vehicle 30, the user's boarding/dropping point/drop-in facility, the time of use, the travel route of the dispatch vehicle 30, and the user's travel route. It includes various elements of The usage history stored in the database 25 may be divided into elements and then stored in a plurality of databases 25 in association with user information and destination candidates. First, the candidate location extraction unit 24 acquires the most recent action history. For example, in the example of FIG. 1, assume that the user departs from point C near his home, travels by train and on foot to transit point B, and arrives at transit point B at 2:00 p.m. When the detection unit 12 of the shared terminal 10 installed at transit point B detects the user (hereinafter also referred to as "movement example A from home"), the behavior history from home to transit point B is determined. is the most recent action history (hereinafter also referred to as the most recent action history). Note that if the user stops at a hospital or the like before moving from home to transit point B, the stopover point is also included in the recent action history.

The candidate location extraction unit 24 identifies usage history that is correlated with the recent action history from the database 25 based on the location information of the shared terminal 10 and the time information when the user operated the shared terminal 10. The candidate location extracting unit 24 selects an action history in which the current user position is the transit location from among the usage history stored in the database 25 (hereinafter also referred to as "stored usage history"), and which is the action history of the shared terminal 10. Extract the action history that includes the operation time in the time period of the usage history. For example, in the case of "Movement example A from home", the candidate location extraction unit 24 determines that transit point B is the transit point, that the usage time of the transportation system includes 2:00 p.m. Extract usage history that meets two conditions.

If there are many usage histories that satisfy the conditions, the candidate location extraction unit 24 may extract only the stored usage history close to the current time, for example. The stored usage history close to the current time is, for example, history for several weeks or several months from the current date and time.

Further, the candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts the action history according to the user's travel route from the departure location to the transit location. The control flow of the candidate location extraction unit 24 will be described below with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a flowchart of subflows included in the control process of step S7.

In step S21, the candidate location extraction unit 24 identifies the detected user's recent behavior history up to the transit point. In step S22, the candidate location extraction unit 24 determines whether the user has moved from outside the patrol area to the transit location. In the above-mentioned "movement example A from home", since the departure point is outside the travel area 100, the candidate location extraction unit 24 determines that the user has moved from a registered location outside the travel area to the transit location. If the user moves from outside the patrol area to a transit point, in step S23, the candidate location extracting unit 24 selects, from among the stored usage history, the location where the user moved from a registered location outside the patrol area and arrived at the transit location. Extract usage history. On the other hand, if the user moves from a registered place in the patrol area to a transit place, in step S24, the candidate place extracting unit 24 selects a location from which the user moves from the registered place in the patrol area and transfers from the stored usage history. Extract the usage history at the transit point. That is, in the control processing of steps S22 to S24, a registered place such as a home is used as a departure point, and the correlation is compared depending on whether the departure point is within the patrol area or outside the patrol area. Separate usage history. Note that the place of departure does not necessarily have to be the place of registration.

In step S25, the candidate location extraction unit 24 compares the detected recent action history of the user with the extracted storage usage history, and extracts three candidate locations in descending order of correlation. The candidate location extraction unit 24 compares the spots included in the recent action history and the stored usage history to calculate the correlation. The spots indicate locations included in the action history and usage history, such as the departure point/transfer point/destination of the dispatch vehicle 30, the user's boarding/dropping point/drop-in facility, and the like. For example, in the above-mentioned "Example A of movement from home," assume that the user stops at a "workplace," a "supermarket," and a "hospital" while moving from point C to transit point B. In such a case, among the storage usage history when the user moved from point C to transit point B, the storage usage history where the user stopped at at least one spot among "workplace", "supermarket", and "hospital" Identify.

The candidate location extraction unit 24 compares the spots in the recent action history and the spots in the stored usage history, and the usage history with many common spots becomes the usage history with high correlation. Furthermore, the candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts destinations of the storage usage history as candidate destinations in order of high correlation. For example, the storage usage history for the number of times of use (20 times) is extracted by the control process in step S23, and among the spots in the storage usage history, the spots from point C to transit point B are "workplace", " Determine if they match "supermarket" and "hospital". The higher the degree of matching, the higher the correlation. For example, the storage usage history for the number of usages (20 times) is extracted, and among the extracted usage history, 15 storage usage history is common to three spots, and storage usage history for 4 usage is common to two spots. It is assumed that one spot has a common storage usage history. The candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts the destinations of the 15 storage usage histories with the highest correlation as the most correlated candidate locations, and extracts the destinations of the 1 storage usage history with the lowest correlation as Extract as the candidate location with the lowest correlation. Note that if the destinations of the 15 stored and used histories with the highest correlation are different for each history, the destination most frequently used may be used as the candidate location. Note that the correlation does not need to be calculated from the degree of coincidence of spots, and may be calculated from, for example, the driving route or the mode of transportation used. Then, the candidate location extraction unit 24 ends the control process in step S7.

As a characteristic of the user, if the user's behavior history from the place where the user frequently stays, such as the user's home, to the transit point on the patrol route has a high correlation with the past usage history of the transportation system, After changing transportation at a transit point, there is a tendency for people to head to the same destination or drop-off point as their past usage history. For example, suppose that a user has a workplace within the patrol route and a home outside the patrol route, and the user gets on a patrol vehicle from a boarding point near the workplace and gets off at a transfer point. Furthermore, it is assumed that the user shops at a supermarket before getting off the vehicle at the boarding location. With such an action history, it can be predicted that the user will return home with a high probability after the transit point, and the candidate location extracting unit 24 extracts "home" as a highly correlated candidate destination location for the user.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, in the control flow of step S21, depending on whether the route taken by the user to the transit point is within the patrol area 100, the traffic information to be referred to for extracting candidate locations is determined. The system usage history is differentiated. That is, the usage history stored in the database 25 includes a first behavior history indicating the behavior history when the user moves from within the patrol area 100 of the dispatch vehicle 30 to outside the patrol area 100 via a transit point, and a user history. includes a second action history indicating an action history when the user moves from outside the patrol area 100 into the patrol area via a transit point. Then, when the user arrives at a transit point using the dispatched vehicle 30 traveling on the patrol route, the candidate location extracting unit 24 extracts candidate locations based on the first action history, When arriving at a transit point from outside using a means of transportation, candidate locations are extracted based on the second action history. Thereby, the prediction accuracy of candidate locations can be improved. Note that the patrol area 100 corresponds to the "predetermined travel area" of the present invention.

Note that when the dispatched vehicle 30 does not patrol the predetermined travel route, the database 25 shows the behavior history when the user moves from within the predetermined travel area to outside the predetermined travel area via a transit point. A first action history and a second action history indicating the action history when the user moves from outside the predetermined travel area to the predetermined travel area via a transit point are stored. The predetermined driving area is an area in which a specific dispatched vehicle 30 can travel, and is the driving area 100 in the example of FIG. Then, when the user arrives at a transit point using the dispatch vehicle 30 traveling in a predetermined driving area, the candidate place extraction unit 24 extracts a candidate place based on the first action history, and extracts a candidate place based on the first action history. When arriving at a transit point by means of transportation from outside the travel area, candidate locations may be extracted based on the second action history.

Referring to FIG. 3, in step S8, the information acquisition unit 13 acquires from the server 20 information on candidate locations extracted based on the usage history of the transportation system. The display control unit 14 causes the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10 to display information about the candidate location. In step S9, the user checks the candidate locations for the destination on the display screen of the display device 18, and selects the candidate location by a touch operation. Note that the destination is displayed in a simple manner on the display screen of the display device 18. For example, a display format that displays only characters such as "restaurant Further, it is better for the number of candidate locations to be displayed to be as small as, for example, three. This simplifies the user's touch operation and provides a highly convenient system for the user.

In step S10, the shared terminal 10 transmits the selection result to the server 20. In step S11, the reservation management unit 21 of the server 20 sets the selected candidate location as the destination. In step S12, the vehicle management unit 22 calculates a travel route for the dispatch vehicle 30 traveling toward the selected destination. In step S13, the reservation management unit 21 allocates a dispatched vehicle 30 that can travel on the travel route, and confirms the reservation of the dispatched vehicle 30. The reservation management section 21 transmits the confirmed reservation information to the shared terminal 10.

In step S14, the display control unit 13 of the shared terminal 10 displays the confirmed reservation information on the display device 18 in order to show the user that the reservation has been completed. In step S15, the user confirms the reservation details of the dispatched vehicle 30 from the transit point to the destination from the display screen of the display device 18. Thereafter, the user gets on the reserved dispatch vehicle 30 and travels to the destination.

Next, a method for storing usage history in the database 25 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 is a classification table for sorting usage history. Note that the classification shown in FIG. 6 is only an example, and other classifications may be used. The usage history storage unit 23 classifies the acquired usage history of the transportation system by the user based on the classification table of FIG. 6, and then stores the usage history in the database 25. The classification items are "travel route," "traveling distance," "date and time," and "long-distance element." The classification item "travel route" is classified based on whether the travel route is a route starting from a registered place such as a home or a route having a registered place such as a home as a destination. The classification item ``distance traveled'' is classified based on whether the distance traveled is long or short. This is classified as a classification item because the destinations that can be used as spots differ depending on whether the travel distance is short or long.

The classification item "date and time" is classified by "time period such as morning, afternoon, etc.", "day of the week", "week", and "month". Since human behavior is determined in advance by time cycles, "date and time" is used as a classification item in order to match the behavior cycle. For example, assume that a user travels from outside the patrol area, arrives at a transit point, transfers to a dispatched vehicle at the transit point, and heads to a supermarket within the patrol area in order to purchase ingredients for dinner. Since such user actions occur on a daily basis, the time slot for departure from a starting point such as a home and the time slot for arrival at a transit point are often the same for each action. Furthermore, in daily behavior history, for example, if the departure time is before evening (e.g. 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.), there are many behavior histories where the destination is a supermarket, and if the departure time is early in the morning. If it is a time period (for example, 7:00 to 8:00), there are many behavior histories where the destination is the workplace. That is, since there may be a correlation between the user's usage time of the transportation system and the destination, the usage history may include the user's destination information for each user's usage time of the transportation system. Create a database of usage history. In addition, the classification item ``long-distance element'' is classified by ``accommodation facilities'' and ``tourist destinations.'' For example, in the case of a business trip that involves overnight stays, people's behavior differs greatly from their daily behavior. Therefore, if a special activity is involved, such as work associated with accommodation or sightseeing, the usage history is separated and stored in the database 25. The usage history storage unit 23 stores the user's usage history in the database 25 based on such classification. Note that the database 25 may include a plurality of databases separated for each classification item. When calculating the correlation by comparing the user's most recent action history and storage usage history, the candidate location extraction unit 24 compares the most recent action history and storage usage history for each classification item, and selects matching items. The correlation may be calculated such that the larger the number, the higher the correlation.

As described above, the transportation system according to the present embodiment detects the user approach state, which is a state in which the user approaches the shared terminal 10, controls the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10, and controls the transportation system of the detected user. A candidate destination is extracted based on the usage history, and when a state of approach by a user is detected, information on the candidate location is displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10. As a result, destination candidates are displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10 in time with the timing when the user approaches the shared terminal 10, allowing the user to select a drop-off point or destination with a simple operation. . As a result, the user's convenience of the system can be improved.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a travel route of the dispatch vehicle 30 traveling toward a point selected by the user from among the candidate locations is calculated, and information on the travel route is displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10. This allows the user to easily confirm the driving route to the selected candidate location.

Further, the shared terminal control device 11 and the method for controlling the shared terminal according to the present embodiment detect the user's approach state, acquire information on destination candidates extracted based on the user's usage history of the transportation system, and acquire the user's approach state. When detected, information on the candidate destination is displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10. As a result, destination candidates are displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10 in time with the timing when the user approaches the shared terminal 10, allowing the user to select a drop-off point or destination with a simple operation. . As a result, the user's convenience of the system can be improved.

In a modification of the present embodiment, the detection unit 12 of the shared terminal 10 may detect the user's attributes, and the candidate location extraction unit 24 of the server 20 may extract candidate locations based on the user's attributes. For example, if the amount of data in the storage usage history of the user is small and the number of extracted destination candidates is small, or if the number of destination candidates is small, the candidate location extracting unit 24 extracts the same attributes as the detected user's attributes. Identify other users with attributes. The candidate location extraction unit 24 then extracts destination candidates based on the usage history of other users. Thereby, destination candidates can be extracted even if the number of data in the user's storage usage history is small.

Further, in a modification of the present embodiment, the display control unit 14 of the shared terminal 10 may cause the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10 to display information on the candidate locations for the transit point extracted by the candidate location extraction unit 24. good. As a result, transit point candidates are displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10 at the same time as the user approaches the shared terminal 10, allowing the user to select a transit point with a simple operation. . As a result, the user's convenience of the system can be improved.

Note that in this embodiment, the candidate location extraction unit 24 may extract various candidate locations depending on the traffic situation when extracting target value candidates and transit location candidates. For example, if the candidate location extraction unit 24 has extracted the destination of the storage usage history with the highest correlation, but it can be determined from the current traffic situation that the roads around the destination are congested, change to another highly correlated destination.

Note that in the embodiment, when extracting target value candidates and candidate locations for transit locations, the candidate location extraction unit 24 may extract various candidate locations depending on the user's appearance. For example, when storing the usage history of the transportation system by the user in the database 25, the usage history enabling unit 23 stores information about the user's appearance in the database 25 including the behavior history. Information regarding the user's appearance includes the user's clothes and the like. The database 25 includes "appearance" as a classification item. The candidate location extracting unit 24 refers to the database 25 to obtain the usage history of the detected user, and extracts the usage history of using the transportation system with the same or similar appearance to the detected user's appearance. The candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts frequently used transit locations and/or destinations as candidate locations from the extracted usage history.

For example, when a user wears a suit and goes to work, the time slot for departure from a starting point such as a home and the time slot for arrival at a transit point are often the same for each activity. In such a case, even if the time of departure is the same as the time of arrival at the workplace, if the user wears casual clothes, there is a high possibility that the user will go to a place different from the workplace. The candidate location extraction unit 24 refers to the database 25 and extracts the user's usage history when using the transportation system in a casual appearance during the same time period from the user's usage history, and extracts candidate locations such as destinations. . If a plurality of candidate locations are extracted, the priority is given to the candidate location that has been used more often or the candidate location that has a higher degree of clothing matching. The display control unit 14 may preferentially display candidate locations with a high priority.

Further, in the present embodiment, the candidate location extraction unit 24 extracts candidates for the dispatch vehicle 30, and the display control unit 14 of the shared terminal 10 displays information on the candidates for the dispatch vehicle 30 on the display device 18 of the common terminal 10. You may let them. For example, if there are multiple dispatch vehicles that can travel to the destination extracted by the candidate location extraction unit 24, the vehicle type information of the candidate dispatch vehicle 30 and the congestion information inside the vehicle are displayed on the display device 18 of the shared terminal 10. to be displayed. This makes it possible to provide the user with 30 options for dispatched vehicles.

Note that the embodiments described above are described to facilitate understanding of the present invention, and are not described to limit the present invention. Therefore, each element disclosed in the above embodiments is intended to include all design changes and equivalents that fall within the technical scope of the present invention.
