  • Publication number: 20240240950
    Abstract: A route searching device may obtain map information including a plurality of roads. The route searching device may determine a reference position and a destination on the map information. The route searching device may determine a restricting condition for a mobile body to travel by departing from the reference position and reaching the destination. The route searching device may search a route from the reference position to the destination satisfying the restricting condition. The route searching device may identify a predetermined road from among the plurality of roads. The predetermined road may be a road on which the mobile body has travelled or which has been selected as the route before in the past. The route searching device may search the route such that a percentage at which the identified predetermined road is included in the route becomes low.

  • Patent number: 11694554
    Abstract: A controller of an information processing apparatus disclosed obtains first information about a tendency of move of a user staying in a specific facility. The controller forecasts, on the basis of the first information, an expected destination of move to which the user will move from the specific facility and an expected time slot of move during which the user will start to move from the specific facility to the expected destination of move. The controller calculates the number of users who are expected to move from the specific facility to the expected destination of move in each expected time slot of move on a slot-by-slot basis.

  • Publication number: 20210304616
    Abstract: When an information processing apparatus disclosed receives a signal requesting dispatch of a taxi with information about a desired location of getting-in, it determines a recommended location of getting-in on the basis of at least one of information about a physical condition relating to a road in a specific area including the desired location of getting-in, information about instances of users' getting in and/or getting out of taxis that took place in the specific area in the past, and information about a condition of the road in the specific area. The information processing apparatus sends information for inviting a user to wait at the recommended location of getting-in determined as above to a user's terminal used by the user.
