AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Conventional systems fail to prevent users from staying inside a level crossing, despite detecting abnormalities, as they only notify trains and not the users.
Method used
A terminal equipped with location information acquisition, detection of crossing alarms, and notification units to alert users when they are near a crossing, considering their speed and direction, and even without audible alarms.
Benefits of technology
Prevents users from remaining inside a level crossing by effectively notifying them through various means, including visual and auditory alerts, even when crossing alarms are absent.

Abstract
This prevents users who are already inside a level crossing from remaining inside the crossing. [Solution] Terminal 1 is a terminal used by a user and includes a location information acquisition unit 161 that acquires terminal location information indicating the location of terminal 1, a storage unit 15 that stores level crossing location information indicating the location of a railway level crossing, a detection unit 162 that detects the alarm sound of a level crossing, and a notification unit 164 that, based on the level crossing location information stored in the storage unit 15, determines that a level crossing exists within a predetermined range from the location of terminal 1 indicated by the terminal location information acquired by the location information acquisition unit 161, and when the detection unit 162 detects an alarm sound, notifies the user.
