US 2025/0028334 A1 · MOBILE BODY MANAGEMENT DEVICE, MOBILE BODY MANAGEMENT METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM STORING MOBILE BODY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Abstract

A mobile body management device enables cost-effective execution of work that requires a mobile body. It includes an acceptance unit to receive work information specifying the application, time, and location. A determination unit compares this information with mobile body management data, considering storage location and availability, to select a mobile body that meets the criteria for executing the work. A control information generation unit generates instructions to control the movement of the selected mobile body based on the work application. These instructions are then transmitted to a mobile body control device to oversee the movement of the mobile body during the work. Overall, this device efficiently manages and utilizes mobile bodies for various tasks while maintaining low costs.

Dependent claims

A mobile body management device comprising:

at least one memory storing a computer program;
and
at least one processor configured to execute the computer program to
accept work information indicating a usage application, a usage time, and a usage location of a mobile body in work that uses the mobile body;
collate the usage time and the usage location indicated by the work information with mobile body management information indicating a storage location and an available time related to the mobile body;
determine, as a work execution mobile body for executing the work, the mobile body that is available during the usage time and for which a relationship between the usage location and the storage location satisfies a criterion;
generate control information for controlling movement of the work execution mobile body in the work according to the usage application indicated by the work information;
and
transmit the generated control information to a mobile body control device that controls the movement of the work execution mobile body.
