A movable body control system (SYS) includes first and second movable bodies (1#1, 1#2) that are movable in a predetermined area (TA) in which a wireless communication network (NW) is built; and a control apparatus (3) for controlling the first and second movable bodies through the wireless communication network, the control apparatus includes: a storage unit (32) for storing a first communication quality information that indicates a communication quality in the predetermined area when the first movable body exists in each of a plurality of different locations in the predetermined area; a generation unit (311) for generating, based on the first communication quality information, a target moving route (TGT#2) that allows the second movable body to move while avoiding a first low quality location (DA_low1) at which the communication quality does not reach a desired quality due to the first movable body; and a control unit (312) for controlling the second movable body so that the second movable body moves along the target moving route.

A device and method for displaying the arrival time of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, are provided. The device includes: at least one display device which is designed to show a display, in particular a time display; a detection device which is designed to detect a parked position of the vehicle and/or that the vehicle has stopped, and output corresponding signals; and a computing unit which is communicatively connected to the detection device and the display device and which is designed to output the display on the display device while taking into consideration the signals.

The present disclosure provides a vehicle passenger flow statistical method, including: acquiring, by a server, door opening time and door closing time of a vehicle during any one door opening and closing process of door opening and closing processes in a pending statistical period; acquiring, by the server, a first set of images and a second set of images in a carriage of the vehicle according to the door opening time and the door closing time; and acquiring, by the server, the number of on-board people and the number of off-board people during the door opening and closing process according to the first set of images and the second set of images. The present disclosure can improve efficiency and accuracy of passenger flow statistics according to which an operation plan of the vehicle may be optimized timely and effectively.

A boarding and alighting time informing method includes a determination step for determining, at a stop where a bus stops, whether a person with disabilities is going to board the bus and whether a person with disabilities is going to alight from the bus, a prediction step for predicting a boarding and alighting time at the stop in either one or both of a case when it is determined that a person with disabilities is going to board the bus and a case when it is determined that a person with disabilities is going to alight from the bus, and an informing step for informing at least one of the inside and the outside of the bus about the predicted boarding and alighting time.

The technology includes communicating the current status of a self-driving vehicle to users, such as passengers within the vehicle and other users awaiting pickup. Certain information about the trip and vehicle status is communicated depending on where the passenger is sitting within the vehicle or where the person awaiting pickup is located outside the vehicle. This includes disseminating the “monologue” of a vehicle operating in an autonomous driving mode to a user via an app on the user's device (e.g., mobile phone, tablet or laptop PC, wearable, or other computing device) and/or an in-vehicle user interface. The monologue includes current status information regarding driving decisions and related operations or actions. This alerts the user as to why the vehicle is taking (or not taking) a certain action, which reduces confusion and allows the user to focus on other matters.

A shared mobility vehicle hosts a moving “info kiosk” that provides information assistance to potential passengers (or other individuals) and to on-board passenger. The approach is applicable to human-operated vehicles, and a particularly applicable to autonomous vehicles where no human operator is available to provide assistance.

A method of determining a state of a target object, an electronic device, and a storage medium, relate to fields of a computer technology, cloud computing and Internet of things, and apply to smart cities. The method includes: receiving a transmitted first moving point sequence for the target object, the first moving point sequence including a plurality of target moving point elements, and each target moving point element containing a timestamp information and a displacement information that indicate a stay state of the target object; determining, from the first moving point sequence, a target stay point of the target object, according to the timestamp information and the displacement information; and determining that the state of the target object at the target stay point is an abnormal stay state, in response to a distance between the target stay point and a first preset position being less than a first preset threshold.
