  • Patent number: 11800321
    Abstract: Highly precise detection of occurrence of an abnormality in an out-of-service area is enabled. A server 5 includes an area identification unit 24A identifying an out-of-service area in which communication with an information communication device 3 is disabled, a determination unit 24B determining whether the information communication device 3 enters the out-of-service area or not by using the position information of the information communication device 3, a computation unit 24C calculating an expected stay time in which the information communication device 3 stays in the out-of-service area, and a notification control unit 24D executing notification processing for notifying predetermined information to a notification destination if it is determined that the information communication device 3 enters the out-of-service area and when an elapsed time from a time when communication with the information communication device 3 is disabled exceeds the expected stay time.

  • Patent number: 10848917
    Abstract: An object is to provide a server device, an occupant determination method, and an occupant determination support method that efficiently manages an occupant to be associated with a vehicle. A server device includes an on-board device information acquisition unit configured to acquire position information from an on-board device, a terminal request unit configured to transmit, to a plurality of predetermined terminal devices, information indicating a riding determination request including the position information of the on-board device, and an occupant determination unit configured to associate at least one terminal device out of the plurality of predetermined terminal devices and the on-board device with each other, based on a response from the terminal device that is present within a predetermined distance from the on-board device.

  • Publication number: 20170102245
    Abstract: An in-vehicle device according to the present invention includes a notification information acquisition unit that acquires notification information transmitted from an external device, a traveling state evaluation unit that identifies a traveling state of a vehicle in which the in-vehicle device is mounted and evaluates appropriateness of voice output of the notification information, a guidance interference determination unit that determines interference between a voice output of the notification information and another guidance voice when the traveling state evaluation unit evaluates that the notification information is appropriate for voice output, and a voice output control unit that avoids the interference with the guidance voice and performs voice output of the notification information when there is the interference with the guidance voice.
