Patent number: 11941965Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to enable a warning to be issued to a person who is highly likely to be put in danger at a risky point. In an information processing apparatus, a controller acquires information indicating a risky point, acquires a state of a person with a predetermined positional relationship to the risky point, and determines whether or not the state of the person is a state where there is a high possibility of being put in danger, among a plurality of states of the person assumable at the risky point. Furthermore, in a case where the state of the person is determined to be the state where there is a high possibility of being put in danger, the controller causes an output unit to output information indicating a warning.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yurika Tanaka, Shuichi Sawada, Takaharu Ueno, Shin Sakurada, Daiki Yokoyama, Genshi Kuno
