An information processing device, an information processing system, and an information processing method, determine whether an object to be transported is the passenger or the cargo based on a transportation request requesting transportation of the object to be transported, calculate a driving route candidate that passes through a start point candidate for starting transportation and an end point candidate for ending transportation, extracting a driving route from among the driving route candidate based on a travel time until end of transportation of the passenger who is the object to be transported in a case of determining that the object to be transported is the passenger, and based on a movement cost of the vehicle in a case of determining that the object to be transported is the cargo, and outputting the extracted driving route.

A device for controlling a vehicle includes a sensor configured to obtain a face of a passenger and a position of the passenger, storage configured to store information on a plurality of passengers, and a processor that determines, when a passenger closest to the vehicle is obtained based on the position of the passenger, whether to approve boarding of the obtained passenger based on the information on the plurality of passengers stored in advance, and controls a boarding approval indication or a boarding disapproval indication to be output based on whether the boarding is approved.

A control method includes, by a computer: acquiring first information indicating a history of movement between hubs using a plurality of vehicles by a plurality of users; accepting second information indicating a request to move a vehicle from one hub to another hub; outputting a price of a reward to be paid to each of the users when a request indicated by the second information is achieved according to a matching rate calculated as a degree of coincidence between the first information of each user and the second information; and notifying of the second information and information indicating the reward of each user.

An object of the present invention is to provide a moving object utilization system and a moving object utilization method capable of grasping whether a moving object to be used by a user is appropriately used or has appropriately been used.

A moving object utilization system comprising a plurality of user terminals operated by a plurality of respective users; and a server device capable of establishing communication connection with the user terminals, the moving object utilization system providing a service for the plurality of users to use a moving object in turn, wherein the server device includes an information transmitter that transmits user information on one user who is using a moving object and/or using state information on a using state of a moving object to another user terminal operated by another user different from the one user.

The technology relates to actively looking for an assigned passenger prior to a vehicle reaching a pickup location. For instance, information identifying the pickup location and client device information for authenticating the assigned passenger is received. Sensor data is received from a perception system of the vehicle identifying objects in an environment of the vehicle. When the vehicle is within a predetermined distance of the pickup location, authenticating a client device using the client device information is attempted. When the client device has been authenticated, the sensor data is used to determine whether a pedestrian is within a first threshold distance of the vehicle. When a pedestrian is determined to be within the first threshold distance of the vehicle, the vehicle is stopped prior to reaching the pickup location, to wait for the pedestrian within the first threshold distance of the vehicle to enter the vehicle.

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for intelligently restricting transportation changes based on signals in a dynamic transportation matching system. For example, the disclosed systems can analyze signals associated with transportation of a requestor by a vehicle of a provider to determine whether a transportation-change request is indicated. In response to determining that a transportation-change request is indicated, the disclosed systems can prevent a transportation change to a destination, route, or waypoint and generate a restriction notification. The disclosed system can also provide the restriction notification to at least a provider client device in response to determining that it is safe to do so.

A vehicle-mounted apparatus for accommodating an electronic key of a vehicle, the apparatus comprises a speaker; a light emitting unit; an audio control unit configured to control the speaker to emit given audio guidance related to a handling procedure of the vehicle-mounted apparatus when the vehicle is used; and a lighting control unit configured to control lighting of the light emitting unit in conjunction with audio emission control of the audio guidance by the audio control unit.
