Abstract: Carpooling in a vehicle traveling to a predetermined place is promoted. A number of carpool passenger users who are users scheduled to carpool in a vehicle that travels to a predetermined place is acquired; a cost needed for potential users who are users different from the carpool passenger users to ride the vehicle is set on the basis of the number of carpool passenger users; and information on the cost is provided to the potential users present within a predetermined range from a scheduled path of the vehicle traveling to the predetermined place.

Abstract: An objective is to encourage users who give teaching to carpool in a case where learning is provided between multiple users in a carpool vehicle. An information processing apparatus includes a controller and when learning is provided in a carpool vehicle between a teacher user who is a user giving teaching and a student user who is a user receiving the teaching, the controller acquires information for distinguishing between the teacher user and the student user, and gives an incentive to the teacher user.

Abstract: Learning effects are increased in a case where a learning is performed between multiple users in a carpool vehicle. An information processing apparatus includes a control unit. The control unit, in a case where a learning between multiple carpool users who are users in a carpool in a same vehicle is to be performed in the vehicle, matches the multiple carpool users to join the carpool in the vehicle, based on information about learning levels of multiple demanding users who are users demanding the carpool in the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle equipped with an electronic control unit includes: one or more communication devices configured to receive from a server an approval request to a user regarding update of software used in the electronic control unit; and one or more processors configured to receive a predetermined vehicle-side operation for the approval request, perform control for notifying, to an information processing device of the user, a vehicle-side operation result of the predetermined vehicle-side operation without going through the server when the predetermined vehicle-side operation is received, and perform control for withdrawing the approval request received by the one or more communication devices when the vehicle receives from the information processing device a device-side operation result of a predetermined device-side operation. The predetermined device-side operation is an operation received in the information processing device and is an operation for the approval request transmitted from the server to the information processing device.

Abstract: A communication system includes a vehicle including a control device configured to store a control program, a terminal configured to give a notification about predetermined information, and a server configured to communicate with the vehicle and the terminal. The server is configured to transmit update data for the control program. The processor is configured to reduce a data amount of information to be transmitted to the terminal about a transmission status of the update data when the server transmits the update data to the vehicle via the terminal, as compared to a data amount of information to be transmitted to the terminal about the transmission status when the server transmits the update data to the vehicle without intermediation of the terminal.

Abstract: A server updates software on a control device of a vehicle through wireless communication. The server includes a processor and an interface. The processor performs a process of obtaining user's consent to update the software. The processor instructs to start an update process of first software and second software when the consent to update the first software and the second software is obtained. When an error occurs during the update process of the first software, the processor requests again the consent to update the first software and selectively requests again the consent to update the second software based on predetermined connection between the first software and the second software, before performing again the update process of the first software and the second software.

Abstract: A driving handover control device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. In a case in which driving is handed over from a first state in which a vehicle travels in accordance with instruction from a first remote operator of the vehicle to a second state in which the vehicle travels in accordance with instruction from a second remote operator who is different from the first remote operator, the processor implements a transition from the first state to a third state in which the vehicle travels autonomously without instruction from the first remote operator or the second remote operator, and, after the transition from the first state to the third state, implements a transition from the third state to the second state.
