  • Publication number: 20200380630
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a controller configured to acquire information about a first airplane and a second airplane in a case where a user who makes an airplane transfer in an airport makes a request to use an autonomously traveling vehicle when the user moves from the first airplane to the second airplane, match the user with the vehicle based on the information about the first airplane and the second airplane, and generate an operation instruction to dispose the vehicle at a position where the user alights from the first airplane in accordance with a time at which the user alights from the first airplane such that the user boards the vehicle and to dispose the vehicle at a position where the user boards the second airplane in accordance with a time at which the user boards the second airplane such that the user alights from the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20200371532
    Abstract: An information processing device includes a control unit that executes: generating a traveling plan for an autonomous vehicle, the traveling plan including a traveling route and a traveling schedule; and generating a moving image to be displayed on a display device that is provided in a vehicle cabin of the autonomous vehicle. The control unit generates the traveling plan or the moving image, such that at least a part of a behavior of the autonomous vehicle when the autonomous vehicle travels in accordance with the traveling plan and at least a part of the moving image to be displayed on the display device during traveling are coordinated with each other.

  • Publication number: 20200365263
    Abstract: An information processing device manages the running of a moving vehicle that contains a bed on which an examinee is laid and that can run autonomously. The information processing device is equipped with a control unit that carries out acquisition of an exam schedule of the examinee, generation of a movement instruction signal for moving the moving vehicle to a place of exam, based on the exam schedule, and transmission of the movement instruction signal to the moving vehicle.

  • Patent number: 5134910
    Abstract: A method of simultaneously cutting the surfaces of a set of a plurality of rolls made flush with one plane, disposed at equal angular intervals, and forming a central caliber therebetween, by means of a cutter provided with cutting tools in the same number as that of the rolls. The cutter holds the cutting edge of the cutting tool in parallel with the cutter shaft and adapts the cutting edge to face the just front side of one of the rolls for the purpose of cutting. In cutting, in addition to the movement of the cutter in the axial direction Z and circumferential direction .theta., the cutting tool moves in the radial direction R of the cutter shaft. Thus, the cutting edge 21a' is kept facing the roll shaft at right angles all the time in spite of positional change in the circumferential direction .theta., whereby simultaneous and continuous shaping of not only the caliber surface but also round parts 10b on both sides of the shoulder and 120.degree. surface is made possible.
