Abstract: A remote driving taxi system provides a mobility service using remote driving taxis that are driven by remote drivers. Each of the remote driving taxis includes a display lamp configured to indicate whether the remote driving taxi is currently available. Management information includes use states of the remote driving taxis and assignment states between the remote driving taxis and the remote drivers. The remote driving taxi system puts on the display lamp of the remote driving taxi to which the remote driver has already been assigned and that is currently available, based on the management information. Further, the remote driving taxi system puts off the display lamp of the remote driving taxi to which the remote driver has already been assigned and that is currently unavailable, based on the management information.

Abstract: Provided is a system including: a first vehicle equipped with a land mobile station for mobile communication; and a second vehicle that transports the first vehicle and a user holding a terminal for mobile communication. The system further includes a control unit configured to acquire radio wave intensity of the mobile communication at a current location of the second vehicle, and generate, when the acquired radio wave intensity is less than a predetermined intensity, a command to unload the first vehicle from the second vehicle; and generating a command to relay the mobile communication by the land mobile station of the first vehicle.

Abstract: A matching system that matches a first vehicle requiring substitution when being at least either loaded into or unloaded from a parking place and a remote driver driving the first vehicle as a substitute through remote operation includes a terminal and a server. The terminal transmits substitution request information to the server. The server that has received the request information transmits waiting time information to the terminal. The terminal notifies a user or a staff of the received waiting time information, accepts a waiting time information approval or additional fee payment instructions, and settles the additional fee through cooperation with the server, upon receiving the payment instructions. The server changes the turn of the first vehicle in a queue for the remote operation service such that the first vehicle is prioritized more than a second vehicle that has not paid the additional fee, upon completing the additional fee settlement.

Abstract: A control unit of a server device, as an information processing apparatus of the present disclosure, is configured to execute: notifying a terminal held by a first user associated with pick-up/delivery (P/D) of a package of a P/D route and a scheduled passing time of the P/D route, at a predetermined time before a scheduled P/D time; receiving a boarding request of the first user, which is for boarding at a first location on the P/D route or within a first predetermined range around the P/D route, from the terminal; and transmitting to a moving object traveling for the P/D, a command for transporting the first user from the first location to a P/D destination.

Abstract: A remote driving taxi system provides a mobility service using remote driving taxis that are driven by remote drivers. Management information indicates assignment states between the remote driving taxis and the remote drivers. The remote driving taxi system executes an assignment process based on the management information, in response to a request from a user. Specifically, the remote driving taxi system selects one of unassigned taxis to each of which the remote driver has not been assigned, as a first remote driving taxi that provides the service to the user. Further, the remote driving taxi system selects one of remote drivers each of which has not been assigned to the remote driving taxi, as a first remote driver that provides the service to the user. Then, the remote driving taxi system assigns the first remote driver to the first remote driving taxi.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an autonomous traveling vehicle having a loading space for loading a package and/or a user. The autonomous traveling vehicle includes: a partition apparatus for performing switching between a partitioned state where the loading space is partitioned into a plurality of spaces separated from each other and a communicating state where the loading space forms one continuous space; and a control unit that controls the partition apparatus such that the loading space is brought into the communicating state when only any one of the package and the user is loaded in the loading space and the loading space is brought into the partitioned state when both of the package and the user are loaded in the loading space.

Abstract: An information processing system that manages traveling of a plurality of autonomous vehicles when the autonomous vehicles travel in a platoon is provided. Each of the autonomous vehicles is equipped with a motor, and an operation source as a substance consumed for operating the motor. The information processing system includes a controller configured to obtain a parameter correlated with an operation source remaining amount as a remaining amount of the operation source installed on each of the autonomous vehicles, and determine a traveling order of the autonomous vehicles traveling in the platoon, based on the parameter of each of the autonomous vehicles.
