Abstract: An information processing device comprising a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire a satellite image from an artificial satellite; detect, among charging stations within the satellite image that include at least one charger for a vehicle, vacant charging stations having a vacant charger that is not being used; and output station position information related to a position of each respective detected vacant charging station.

Abstract: A information processing device includes: a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire a satellite image of a scheduled travel path, among satellite images captured by an artificial satellite; detect, from the acquired satellite image, an obstruction that a host vehicle should avoid on the scheduled travel path; and calculate a road width for which passage of the host vehicle is possible on the scheduled travel path, in consideration of the detected obstruction.

Abstract: An information processing device, comprising a processor that is configured to: receive, as preference information, information related to a specific category comprising at least one of a category of vehicle to avoid encountering or a category of vehicle for which an encounter is desired; acquire a satellite image of travel path surroundings of a host vehicle; detect another vehicle, which corresponds to the specific category, based on the preference information, from among other vehicles captured in the satellite image; and output, to a display region provided inside the vehicle cabin of the host vehicle, route information related to a route comprising at least one of a route having a low probability of encountering another vehicle, which corresponds to the category of vehicle to avoid encountering, or a route having a high probability of encountering another vehicle, which corresponds to the category of vehicle for which an encounter is desired.

Abstract: An information processing device acquires, for a predetermined point, a first satellite image captured by the artificial satellite and a second satellite image captured at the same point a predetermined time after the first satellite image was captured, compares the first satellite image and the second satellite image to identify any change in state therebetween, determines whether the change is a portion where the state has changed due to traveling of the vehicle, and sets the change as a dangerous point when the change is due to traveling of the vehicle.

Abstract: An information processing device acquires a travel route to a destination, acquires a satellite image captured by an artificial satellite, the satellite image being an image of a place corresponding to the travel route, estimates an amount of solar radiation on the travel route based on the satellite image, and notifies the user when the amount of solar radiation is equal to or greater than a threshold.

Abstract: An information management device includes a travel route acquisition unit, a satellite image acquisition unit, and a detection unit. The travel route acquisition unit acquires a travel route of the vehicle. The satellite image acquisition unit acquires a satellite image in which the periphery of the travel route acquired by the travel route acquisition unit is captured. The detection unit detects one or more available spaces in the parking lot located around the travel route from the satellite image acquired by the satellite image acquisition unit.

Abstract: The information processing device acquires a satellite image captured by an artificial satellite in a range from a current position of the vehicle to a destination, acquires preference information regarding a preference of the driver, evaluates a traveling route to the destination based on the satellite image and the preference information, and outputs an evaluation result of the traveling route.

Abstract: An information processing device includes: a satellite image acquisition section that is configured to acquire a satellite image captured by an artificial satellite; a weather information acquisition section that is configured to acquire weather information for a region corresponding to the satellite image; and an information output section that is configured to output information relating to a road surface condition for the region, which is estimated based on the satellite image and the weather information.

Abstract: An in-vehicle device as an information processing device includes an acquisition unit that acquires the latest satellite image of a region including a traveling road of a vehicle at predetermined time intervals, a detection unit that detects at least one of a change in the shape of the traveling road and an obstacle on the traveling road based on the satellite image acquired by the acquisition unit, and an output unit that outputs a detection result by the detection unit.

Abstract: A machine body inclination detector device for detecting change in position of a float with respect to a machine body according to the inclination of the machine body. The float is constructed such that the buoyancy of the float does not undergo a great change even though the liquid level is inclined.
