    摘要: Disclosed systems and methods provide self-service access control for rental vehicles in which a user's mobile device may be used to access rental vehicles and to determine and process payments for rental vehicle usage. A user's mobile device may be configured to receive a user-profile including one or more access rules governing a user's access rights to one or more respective point-of-entry devices associated with one or more respective rental vehicles. The user device may then provide an access key to a point-of-entry device to unlock a rental vehicle. The user device and/or an external device may then determine and process a payment for usage of the rental vehicle after the vehicle has been returned to the point-of-entry device from which it was accessed or to a different point-of-entry device. The user's mobile device may further be configured to lock and unlock point-of-entry devices that secure various vehicle accessories.

    摘要: A power supply equipment provided for each of parking slots is configured to be able to be stored under a ground, and is configured to supply power to a vehicle parked in a corresponding parking slot with the power supply equipment protruding from the ground. A server that manages each of the parking slots and the power supply equipment is configured to receive a reservation request that specifies a reservation start time of the parking slot. The server is configured to reserve, from a vacant slot, out of the parking slots, that is unreserved at the reservation start time, a parking slot with a neighboring parking slot on at least one side unreserved at the reservation start time with priority over a parking slot with neighboring parking slots on both sides reserved at the reservation start time, when the server receives the reservation request.
