Abstract
A method includes: (A) acquiring, via a network, identification information for identifying a user or a terminal of the user, and dispatch request information that indicates a dispatch request for an autonomous vehicle issued by the user; (B) selecting the autonomous vehicle to be dispatched to the user from among a plurality of autonomous vehicles, based on the dispatch request information; and (C) assigning a control right for the selected autonomous vehicle, to the user or the terminal, based on the identification information.
Claims13
A method comprising:
- acquiring, via a network, dispatch request information issued by a user and identification information for identifying the user, the dispatch request information indicating a target stopping location at which an autonomous vehicle is requested to be dispatched;
- selecting, based on the dispatch request information, the autonomous vehicle to be dispatched to the user from among a plurality of autonomous vehicles;
- and
- determining, based on at least one of the identification information or the dispatch request information, whether to permit the selected autonomous vehicle after arrival at the target stopping location to be moved by the user located around the target stopping location or a remote operator located away from the target stopping location.
A method comprising:
- acquiring, via a network, dispatch request information issued by a user, the dispatch request information indicating a target stopping location at which an autonomous vehicle is requested to be dispatched;
- selecting, based on the dispatch request information, the autonomous vehicle to be dispatched to the user from among a plurality of autonomous vehicles;
- permitting the user to move the selected autonomous vehicle, after the selected autonomous vehicle has arrived at the target stopping location;
- determining whether or not number of times the selected autonomous vehicle has been moved by the permitted user is a predetermined value or more;
- and
- permitting a remote operator located away from the target stopping location to move the selected autonomous vehicle when it is determined that the number of times is a predetermined value or more.
A method comprising:
- acquiring, via a network, dispatch request information issued by a user, the dispatch request information indicating a target stopping location at which an autonomous vehicle is requested to be dispatched;
- selecting, based on the dispatch request information, the autonomous vehicle to be dispatched to the user from among a plurality of autonomous vehicles;
- permitting the user to move the selected autonomous vehicle after the selected autonomous vehicle has arrived at the target stopping location;
- and
- acquiring movement control information indicating movement history of the selected autonomous vehicle which has been moved by the permitted user.
A method for monitoring plurality of movement of plurality of autonomous vehicles, each of which is, after arrival at a target stopping location, permitted to be moved by a user located around the target stopping location, the method comprising:
- displaying one or more first objects on a map in first mode, each of the one or more first objects indicating a first autonomous vehicle being moved by the permitted user;
- and
- displaying one or more second objects on the map in second mode, each of the one or more second objects indicating a second autonomous vehicle moving autonomously.
