Systems and methods for navigating a vehicle among encroaching vehicles
Systems and methods use cameras to provide autonomous navigation features. In one implementation, a method for navigating a user vehicle may include acquiring, using at least one image capture device, a plurality of images of an area in a vicinity of the user vehicle; determining from the plurality of images a first lane constraint on a first side of the user vehicle and a second lane constraint on a second side of the user vehicle opposite to the first side of the user vehicle; enabling the user vehicle to pass a target vehicle if the target vehicle is determined to be in a lane different from the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling; and causing the user vehicle to abort the pass before completion of the pass, if the target vehicle is determined to be entering the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling.

INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM
An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a sub-goal setting unit, a local-route planning unit, and a speed planning unit. The sub-goal setting unit sets a sub-goal on the basis of environment information including position information of a set destination, map information of a travel environment of a mobile apparatus, and self-position information of the mobile apparatus. The local-route planning unit plans a movement route of the mobile apparatus on the basis of the sub-goal. The speed planning unit plans a speed of the mobile apparatus at an end point of a route extended by a predetermined length from the sub-goal.
Robot and method for controlling the same
A robot according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes an authentication interface for authenticating a user's boarding of the robot using authentication information of the user, a position detector for detecting a position of the robot in a space, a processor for identifying a first section corresponding to the detected position among at least one section in the space, recognizing at least one driving mode for the first section among a plurality of driving modes with different driving speeds, setting one of the recognized at least one driving mode as a driving mode for the first section based on the authentication information, and controlling driving of the robot based on the set driving mode, and a display for outputting information on the set driving mode.
Information generation device, information generation method, and program for information generation device
To provide an information generation device and the like that, when generating transmission data of inter-mobile body communication having a limited data amount, generate information that can be effectively used by a mobile body on a reception side. An information generation device 1 mountable on a mobile body (5), the information generation device 1 estimating a control attribute concerning driving control for another mobile body existing in a communicable range from a position of the mobile body (5), the control attribute being a control attribute of mobile bodies relatively large in number, (S4) and generating information for transmission transmitted to the other mobile body, the information for transmission including mobile body information of an item prioritized according to the estimated control attribute among a plurality of items of mobile body information including information concerning the driving control for the mobile body (5) (S7).
DISPLAY DEVICE, DISPLAY METHOD, AND VEHICLE
A display device, a display method, and a vehicle are disclosed. The device includes: a transmissive display that is provided to a moving body; and a display controller that changes transparency of the transmissive display based on traveling information on traveling of the moving body.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROCESSING SERVICE USING REQUEST, AND COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
A method and apparatus for processing a service using a request in a computer readable storage medium. An embodiment of the method comprises: acquiring a service using a request for a vehicle-mounted device; determining a to-be-processed request from unprocessed service using requests; determining, using a preset navigation status service layer, a service type to which the to-be-processed request belongs; and calling, using the navigation status service layer, a service module corresponding to the service type to process the to-be-processed request, the navigation status service layer recording corresponding relationships between different service types and different service modules.
VEHICLE ALLOCATION CONTROL DEVICE, VEHICLE ALLOCATION CONTROL SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE ALLOCATION CONTROL METHOD
A vehicle allocation control device, when a forgotten item in the vehicle is detected after setting a first travel route including a drop-off place, is configured to: calculate a first time at which the vehicle arrives at the drop-off place by travelling along the set first travel route, set at least one second travel route which is different from the first travel route and goes through a facility for depositing the forgotten item, calculate a second time at which the vehicle arrives at the drop-off place by travelling along the second travel route, and change the first travel route to the second travel route where a time difference between the first time and the second time is equal to or less than a permissible time.
Connected vehicle for providing navigation directions to merchant terminals that process vehicle payments
Methods, systems, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable media are described for using a vehicle as a payment device. Various aspects may include receiving a selection of a stored financial card or financial account at a vehicle head unit. The selected financial card or financial account may be transmitted to a point-of-sale (POS) terminal for making a payment by transmitting a tokenized card number to the POS terminal. The tokenized card number may be transmitted over a very short-range communication link to ensure that the transmission is secure. For example, electronic circuitry may be attached to the exterior of the vehicle, where the electronic circuitry may be within a threshold distance (e.g. one inch, three inches, six inches, one foot, three feet, etc.) of the POS terminal. The tokenized card number may be transmitted from the vehicle head unit to the electronic circuitry and then to the POS terminal.
