Abstract: A lost item detection system includes: a vehicle that is capable of driverless and autonomous traveling, the vehicle being configured to travel with a user on board in a preset section; and a center server comprising a first processor configured to acquire a photographic image obtained by capturing an interior of the vehicle from the vehicle, detect a lost item of a user based on the image, specify an owner candidate of the lost item based on the image, acquire information regarding the owner candidate based on a fare settlement history of the owner candidate regarding the vehicle, and register lost item information including the image of the lost item and the information regarding the owner candidate in a lost item ledger in association with each other.

Abstract: A server includes a processor having hardware. The processor is configured to authenticate, upon acquiring from a first device a gift request for electronic money and a message for a second device, the gift request, execute a gifting process when the authentication is successful, and output gift details and the message to the second device.

Abstract: A processor having hardware is provided. The processor creates, when the processor receives a creation request of group payment means for making a payment by electronic money using a first terminal and a second terminal that are associated with an organizer and a participant of a group, respectively, the group payment means in a wallet in which a plurality of payment means is registrable. The processor outputs a deposit request to a first server designated in the creation request, based on registration information of the group payment means acquired from the second terminal, to a second server designated in the registration information.

Abstract: A movement control system includes a traveling controller configured to control, based on traveling route information, traveling of a moving object which a person is able to get on and off while the moving object is traveling, an output unit configured to output, to an occupant, information about a facility based on a traveling area of the moving object, a receiver configured to receive an inputting operation performed by the occupant for use or purchase of a service or a product provided in the facility, an acquisition unit configured to acquire destination information of the occupant getting on the moving object, and a deriving unit configured to derive traveling route information based on the acquired destination information.

Abstract: A mobile unit control system includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire operation information on transportation located around the traveling area of a mobile unit that a user gets on and off while the mobile unit is traveling and a setting unit configured to set the traveling route or the traveling speed of the mobile unit based on the operation information on transportation.

Abstract: A control signal receiver of an equipment control device receives a control signal for equipment transmitted by a remote control terminal from a communication device via the Internet. A remote control authorization receiver receives, from a resident of a home, an authorization with respect to the control signal received by the control signal receiver. When the authorization receiver receives an authorization from the resident of the home, an equipment controller controls the equipment on the basis of the received control signal.

Abstract: A device control apparatus acquires information on the environment surrounding devices from an environment acquisition sensor. The device control apparatus determines, on the basis of the acquired environment information, whether the devices can be remotely controlled safely. When remote operation instruction data is received from a terminal apparatus via an external network (N2), the device control apparatus generates a control signal for controlling devices to be operated and transmits the generated control signal to such devices via an in-house network only in a case where it is determined that such devices can be remotely controlled safely.

Abstract: A subject is to provide a pedestrian motion predicting device capable of accurately predicting a possibility of a rush out before a pedestrian actually begins to rush out. According to the embodiments, the pedestrian is detected from input image data, a portion in which the detected pedestrian is imaged is cut out from the image data, a shape of the pedestrian imaged in the cut-out partial image data is classified by collating the shape with a learning-finished identifier group or a pedestrian recognition template group, and the rush out of the pedestrian is predicted based on a result of the acquired classification.
