  • Patent number: 11891046
    Abstract: An information processing method is executed by a computer and the method includes: obtaining first transported-object information that is transported-object information including a position and a weight of a transported object on a moving body; obtaining a weight of the moving body; generating information indicating a predicted steering angle center value by inputting the first transported-object information obtained and the weight of the moving body obtained into a model generated using second transported-object information, a weight of the moving body, and a steering angle center value of the moving body, the second transported-object information being older transported-object information than the first transported-object information; and outputting the information indicating the predicted steering angle center value to the moving body.

  • Publication number: 20220274594
    Abstract: A control system includes an obtainer that obtains sensing data output from a sensor that performs sensing of an outside of a mobile body, a detector that detects a position of an object outside the mobile body based on the sensing data, a movement predictor that predicts a movement of the object based on the sensing data, a costmap generator that generates a first costmap based on the position detected of the object and a second costmap based on the movement predicted of the object, a path generator that generates a path for the mobile body based on the first costmap, a determination generator that generates a movement determination of the mobile body based on the second costmap and the path generated, and a controller that controls the movement of the mobile body in accordance with the path generated and the movement determination.

  • Publication number: 20220219693
    Abstract: An information processing device (or a vehicle control device) includes: a vehicle information obtainer that obtains a first moving speed of a vehicle; a communicator that obtains an operation amount of an operation related to a speed by an instrument for a remote operation of the vehicle; a vehicle speed instruction generator that generates a second moving speed based on the operation amount; and an outputter that outputs the operation amount as a moving speed control amount, when the first moving speed is lower than a first threshold, and a control amount converted from the second moving speed as the moving speed control amount, when the first moving speed is higher than or equal to a second threshold.

  • Publication number: 20220194408
    Abstract: An information processing method is to be executed by a computer, and the information processing method includes obtaining a task related to traveling executed by a mobile body, first sensing data output from a first sensor that is provided in the mobile body and performs sensing of an outside of the mobile body, and a specification related to the traveling of the mobile body; calculating a sensing requirement based on the task and the specification; calculating a first sensing result based on the first sensing data output from the first sensor; determining whether to restrict execution of the task based on the sensing requirement and the first sensing result; and outputting an instruction for restricting the execution of the task to the mobile body in response to determining that the execution of the task is to be restricted.
