Publication number: 20200117216Abstract: An information processing device includes a registering unit, an obtaining unit, a predicting unit, a determining unit, and a vehicle relocating unit. The registering unit registers information on a destination where a predetermined event is held. The obtaining unit obtains current location information of vehicles movable around or within the destination. The predicting unit predicts, for each specific area, demand for the vehicles that are needed when the predetermined event is held at the destination. The determining unit determines, for each specific area, a difference between the number of available vehicles out of the vehicles of which current location information has been obtained by the obtaining unit and the number of vehicles predicted by the predicting unit. When the difference determined for each specific area by the determining unit is larger than a predetermined threshold, the vehicle relocating unit relocates the vehicles so as to reduce the difference.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2019Publication date: April 16, 2020Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Tae SUGIMURA, Hirotaka KARUBE, Kazuki MATSUMOTO, Makoto MORI, Jun KONDO
