Abstract
A communication system conducts wireless communication with a communication apparatus present in a vicinity of a moving object, and conducts inter-vehicle wireless communication with a communication device mounted on another moving object. The communication system specifies a group formed with a plurality of moving objects capable of conducting the inter-vehicle wireless communication, and distributes a content to the communication apparatus. The communication system differentiates the content to be distributed to the communication apparatus depending on a formation of the group that has been specified.
Claims10
A communication system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory storing instructions which, when the instructions are executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- conduct wireless communication with a communication apparatus present in a vicinity of a moving object;
- conduct inter-vehicle wireless communication with a communication device mounted on another moving object;
- specify a group formed with a plurality of moving objects capable of conducting the inter-vehicle wireless communication;
- and
- distribute a content to the communication apparatus,
- wherein the distributing of the content includes differentiating the content to be distributed to the communication apparatus depending on a formation of the group that has been specified.
An information processing method performed in an information processing apparatus configured to distribute a content, a moving object including communication circuits capable of conducting wireless communication with a communication apparatus present in a vicinity and inter-vehicle wireless communication with a communication device mounted on another moving object, the information processing method comprising:
- acquiring, from at least the moving object, information regarding a communication situation of a plurality of moving objects that conduct the inter-vehicle wireless communication;
- and
- specifying a group formed with the plurality of moving objects that conduct the inter-vehicle wireless communication;
- and
- distributing of the content to the moving object so that the moving object distributes the content to the communication apparatus, or distributing of the content to the communication apparatus,
- wherein the distributing of the content includes differentiating the content to be distributed depending on a formation of the group that has been specified.
A control method for a moving object performed in the moving object, the moving object including communication circuits capable of conducting wireless communication with a communication apparatus present in a vicinity of the moving object and inter-vehicle wireless communication with a communication device mounted on another moving object, the control method comprising:
- specifying a group formed with a plurality of moving objects that conduct the inter-vehicle wireless communication;
- and
- distributing a content to the communication apparatus,
- wherein the distributing of the content includes differentiating the content to be distributed to the communication apparatus depending on a formation of the group that has been specified.
