DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments of an information presentation method, an information presentation device, a vehicle, an information presentation system, a program, and a storage medium according to the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.

In addition, even when the same or substantially the same parts are shown, the dimensions and ratios of the components may be different depending on the drawing. In addition, for example, from the viewpoint of ensuring the visibility of the drawings, reference numerals may be given only to the main components in the description of each drawing, and reference numerals may not be given to components having the same or substantially the same functions as those described above with respect to the previously-mentioned drawings.

[0012] In the description of the present disclosure, components having the same or substantially the same functions may be distinguished by adding an alphanumeric character to the end of the reference symbol. Alternatively, when multiple components having the same or substantially the same functions are not distinguished, they may be collectively described by omitting the alphanumeric character at the end of the reference symbol.

[0013] Hereinafter, the information presentation according to the present disclosure will be described using as an example a case where the present disclosure is applied to logistics in which luggage is transported by vehicles with a logistics base (specific area) as at least one of the starting point, intermediate point, and destination.

[0014] 1 is a diagram showing an example of a configuration of an information presentation system 1 according to an embodiment. The information presentation system 1 includes a logistics data center 11, a vehicle management cloud 12, a logistics base cloud 13, a vehicle 3, and a mobile terminal 4.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, each of the vehicle 3 and the mobile terminal 4 is communicatively connected to a logistics data center 11, a vehicle management cloud 12, and a logistics base cloud 13 via a network N. The network N is a telecommunications line (wide area communication network) such as the Internet. The vehicle 3 and the mobile terminal 4 are communicatively connected by communication of any wireless communication standard (short-range communication). The vehicle 3 and the mobile terminal 4 may be communicatively connected via the network N. A computer system (not shown) installed at a logistics base (starting point, relay point, destination) where cargo handling such as loading and unloading of the vehicle 3 is performed may also be connected to the network N.

[0016] The logistics data center 11 is a computer system that stores a database that manages logistics data in a predetermined format for, for example, manufacturing bases, logistics bases, sales bases, etc. Here, the logistics data center 11 according to the embodiment may be configured as one centralized data center (server), or may be configured as multiple computers (nodes) that configure a distributed network.

[0017] The vehicle management cloud 12 is a computer system whose user is at least one transport company that uses a logistics base. The vehicle management cloud 12 is configured to be able to execute at least one piece of software for managing the vehicles 3 owned or managed by the transport company and the drivers P employed or commissioned by the transport company. As an example, the vehicle management cloud 12 links and manages the vehicle ID, current location, operation schedule information (cargo information, route information), driver information (driver ID), etc. of the vehicle 3. Here, the vehicle management cloud 12 according to the embodiment is an example of a server.

[0018] The logistics base cloud 13 is a computer system whose users are businesses that manage logistics bases. The logistics base cloud 13 is configured to acquire information on multiple packages, multiple vehicles 3, and multiple drivers P from the logistics data center 11 in real time, and to execute at least one piece of software for optimizing the overall operation of the logistics base. As an example, the logistics base cloud 13 controls and manages trucks (vehicles 3) and forklifts at the logistics base so as to maximize the throughput (relay processing capacity) of packages passing through the logistics base while maintaining safety. Here, the logistics base cloud 13 according to the embodiment is an example of a server.

[0019] The vehicle 3 is a vehicle such as a truck owned or managed by a user of the vehicle management cloud 12, and is driven by a driver P who is employed or commissioned by the user of the vehicle management cloud 12. The vehicle 3 has a control unit 31. The vehicle 3 is also equipped with an HMI (Human Machine Interface) 33 as an input / output I / F of the control unit 31. The control unit 31 is configured to be able to execute information processing on the vehicle 3 side according to the embodiment. As an example, the control unit 31 controls communication between the vehicle 3 and the outside, display by the HMI 33, driving of the vehicle 3, etc. The driving control of the vehicle 3 may be control of autonomous driving (automatic driving), control according to the operation of the driver P, or control to assist the driving operation of the driver P.

[0020] For example, the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 is configured to detect traffic objects present in physical space outside the premises of the destination (meaning outside the grounds of the facility that is the destination, the same applies below) via at least one (first sensor) of a camera, a positioning sensor, and a LiDAR arranged on the vehicle 3, and to control the driving of the vehicle 3 based on the results of the detection.

[0021] For example, when the driving mode is switched to automatic driving in response to the operation of the driver P within the premises of the destination (referring to the premises of the facility that is the destination, the same applies below) or on a public road, the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 is configured to be able to control the running of the vehicle 3 based on at least one of the results of detection of a traffic object existing in the physical space and identification of a virtual traffic object existing in the cyberspace acquired from the logistics base cloud 13 via at least one of the above-mentioned first sensor and a second sensor different from the first sensor. This second sensor is at least one of a radar, a magnetic sensor, and a wireless communication circuit (communication I / F 54) arranged in the vehicle 3. In addition, the wireless communication circuit is a short-range wireless communication circuit of any communication method such as Wi-Fi (registered trademark), Bluetooth (registered trademark) Low Energy (BLE), and Ultra-Wide Band (UWB).

[0022] The mobile terminal 4 is a mobile information terminal device such as a smartphone used by the driver P of the vehicle 3. The mobile terminal 4 has a control unit 41. The mobile terminal 4 is also equipped with an HMI (Human Machine Interface) 43 as an input / output I / F of the control unit 41. The control unit 41 of the mobile terminal 4 is configured to be able to execute at least one application program (app) that manages the digital license 21 of the driver P, a driver ID based on the description thereon, and the electronic key 22. Here, the mobile terminal 4 carried by the driver P in the cabin of the vehicle 3 or attached to the vehicle 3 and installed in the vehicle 3 is an example of an information presentation device that presents information to a user in the cabin of the vehicle 3.

[0023] In the information presentation system 1, the vehicle 3 driven by the driver P and the mobile terminal 4 used by the driver P can be linked using, for example, an electronic key 22 managed in the mobile terminal 4. For example, the vehicle ID of the vehicle 3 and the driver ID based on the digital license 21 of the driver P are linked by the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 or the control unit 41 of the mobile terminal 4. The result of this linking is notified from the vehicle 3 or the mobile terminal 4 to the vehicle management cloud 12 for management, and can also be used for attendance management of the driver P.

[0024] The time during which the vehicle 3 is traveling is recorded and managed by the vehicle management cloud 12 as the working time or on-duty time of the driver P associated with the vehicle ID of the vehicle 3. In addition, the vehicle management cloud 12 may determine that the vehicle 3 is in a parked state when the shift state of the vehicle 3 is in parking or has remained in the same place for a predetermined time or more, and may automatically record the time spent in the parked state as on-duty time or rest time in the attendance management, without including it in the working time of the associated driver P. In addition, when the driver P tries to drive the vehicle 3 in a state in which it is determined that the driver P has not taken the required rest time, a warning that the driver P has not taken a sufficient rest may be issued in the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3, the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 of the driver P, and the vehicle management cloud 12.

[0025] In the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure, a part of the processing of the control unit 31 (information presentation device) of the vehicle 3 may be executed by a device external to the control unit 31. For example, a part or all of the information processing (information presentation processing) related to the information presentation of the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 according to the embodiment may be executed by the control unit 41 of the mobile terminal 4. For example, the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 related to the information presentation processing according to the embodiment and the control unit 41 of the mobile terminal 4 may be configured as one unit. For example, a part of the information presentation processing of the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 may be executed by at least one of the logistics data center 11, the vehicle management cloud 12, and the logistics base cloud 13. Also, at least two of the logistics data center 11, the vehicle management cloud 12, and the logistics base cloud 13 may be configured as one unit.

[0026] In other words, the information processing (information presentation processing) of the embodiment can be realized by cooperation between at least one of the logistics data center 11, the vehicle management cloud 12, and the logistics base cloud 13, and at least one of the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 and the control unit 41 of the mobile terminal 4, and the division of the processing can be changed as appropriate.

[0027] As an example, the information presentation process of the embodiment may be realized by generating and displaying display information on at least one of the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 and the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 based on information obtained from at least one of the logistics data center 11, the vehicle management cloud 12, and the logistics base cloud 13.

[0028] As an example, the information presentation process of the embodiment may be realized by displaying display information generated in at least one of the logistics data center 11, the vehicle management cloud 12, and the logistics base cloud 13 on at least one of the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 and the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4.

[0029] FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the hardware configuration of each device (logistics data center 11, vehicle management cloud 12, logistics base cloud 13, control unit 31 of vehicle 3, and control unit 41 of mobile terminal 4) of the information presentation system 1 according to the embodiment.

[0030] 2, each device of the information presentation system 1 has a processor 51, a memory 52, an input / output I / F (interface) 53, and a communication I / F 54. The processor 51, the memory 52, the input / output I / F 53, and the communication I / F 54 are interconnected by a bus 59 or the like, and have a hardware configuration using a normal computer.

[0031] For example, each of the logistics data center 11, the vehicle management cloud 12, and the logistics base cloud 13 is realized by a computer system including at least one computer. This computer system may be a centralized type consisting of one data center (computer), or a distributed type consisting of multiple computers (nodes) capable of communicating over a network.

[0032] For example, the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 is an example of an information presentation device that can be mounted on the vehicle 3. The control unit 31 is realized by, for example, at least one ECU (Electronic Control Unit) or OBU (On Board Unit) provided inside the vehicle 3. The control unit 31 may be realized by a DCU (Domain Control Unit) such as a CDC (Cockpit Domain Controller) that integrates multiple ECUs. This CDC is configured to be able to execute various processes such as in-vehicle infotainment (IVI), meter control, display device control such as a HUD (Head Up Display) and an electronic mirror, and ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems). For example, the control unit 31 may also serve as a car navigation device. Alternatively, the control unit 31 may be an external computer installed near the dashboard of the vehicle 3. The control unit 31 may be configured to be integrated with the HMI 33 or to be able to cooperate with the HMI 33 by communication, and may be realized as an information presentation device that can be mounted on the vehicle 3.

[0033] For example, the control unit 41 of the mobile terminal 4 is a computer installed in a mobile terminal device such as a smartphone.

[0034] The processor 51 is an arithmetic device that controls the entirety of each device in the information presentation system 1. The processor 51 loads a program stored in a ROM (Read Only Memory) or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) of the memory 52 into a RAM (Random Access Memory) of the memory 52 and executes the program, thereby realizing each process described below in each device of the information presentation system 1.

[0035] As the processor 51, various processors such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), a DSP (Digital Signal Processor), or a dedicated arithmetic circuit realized by an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) can be used as appropriate.

[0036] The memory 52 includes, for example, a ROM that stores programs and parameters that realize various processes by the processor 51 in each device of the information presentation system 1. The memory 52 also includes, for example, a RAM as a main storage device that temporarily stores data necessary for various processes by the processor 51. Note that the memory 52 may include various storage media and storage devices such as an HDD, an SSD (Solid State Drive), and a Flash memory that store various data and programs used in each device of the information presentation system 1.

[0037] The input / output I / F 53 may be an output device that presents various information to a user in each device of the information presentation system 1. The input / output I / F 53 may also be an input device that accepts an operation input by a user in each device of the information presentation system 1. The input / output I / F 53 may also be a connection interface for connecting an external device to each device of the information presentation system 1. Here, the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 and the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 (see FIG. 1) are examples of the input / output I / F 53 of the vehicle 3 and the mobile terminal 4, respectively.

[0038] As an example, the input / output I / F 53 may include, as an output device, a display configured to be able to output video. The display is, for example, a liquid crystal display (LCD) or an organic EL (Electro Luminescence) display. The display may be configured as a touch panel display. The input / output I / F 53 may also include, as an output device, a speaker configured to be able to output notification sounds, warning sounds, and audio.

[0039] The display of input / output I / F 53 may be a projection-type display device such as a HUD that projects an image (virtual image) onto a display area provided in front of the user (for example, on the windshield or dashboard (console) in vehicle 3).

[0040] The output device of the input / output I / F 53 may be a display device that uses XR (Cross Reality) technology, such as AR (Augmented Virtuality) glasses worn by the user, to superimpose and display the presented information on the user's field of vision. This display device is not limited to a glasses-type HMD (Head Mounted Display) such as AR glasses, but may be a contact lens-type wearable device. This display device is not limited to AR technology, and various XR technologies such as VR (Virtual Reality), MR (Mixed Reality), and SR (Substitutional Reality) can be used.

[0041] The output device of the input / output I / F 53 may be a display device that projects an image onto the retina. The display device may have, for example, a projection unit that emits laser light to display an image, and an optical system including a mirror that focuses the laser light from the projection unit onto the retina. Alternatively, the display device may have, for example, an optical system including a half mirror, and a projection unit that projects an image onto the half mirror.

[0042] As an example, the input / output I / F 53 may include, as an input device, a touch panel of a touch panel display, or a tactile display that transmits information to a user by touch. Note that the input / output I / F 53 may include, as an input device, a button, a dial, a switch, a microphone, etc.

[0043] As the input / output I / F 53, for example, an operation terminal capable of transmitting or transmitting signals to each device from outside the respective devices, such as a tablet terminal, a smartphone, a remote controller, or an electronic key, may be used.

[0044] The communication I / F 54 is a wired or wireless communication circuit for transmitting and receiving data between each device and the outside of the device in each device of the information presentation system 1. As the wireless communication circuit, any communication circuit of the cellular V2X system, such as a mobile communication system of each generation according to the IMT2020 regulations or the 3GPP (registered trademark) specifications, such as 3G, LTE, 4G, or 5G, or a next-generation mobile communication system such as Beyond 5G (6G), can be appropriately used.

[0045] The wireless communication circuit of the vehicle 3 may be a communication circuit of another communication method, such as the IEEE-compliant DSRC method or the vehicle-to-vehicle / road-to-vehicle communication (V2N) method.

[0046] The wireless communication circuit between the vehicle 3 and the mobile terminal 4 may appropriately use short-range wireless communication of any communication method, such as Wi-Fi (registered trademark), Bluetooth (registered trademark) Low Energy (BLE), Ultra-Wide Band (UWB), etc. The short-range wireless communication circuit mounted on the vehicle 3 may be used as a sensor (second sensor) that detects the current position of the vehicle 3 based on position information of an access spot or a terminal device of the communication destination. The short-range wireless communication may also be performed using an Electronic Toll Collection System (ETC).

[0047] The communication I / F 54 of the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 may receive data from other devices provided in the vehicle 3, such as on-board sensors, and may transmit and receive information to and from other ECUs mounted in the vehicle 3 via an on-board network of the vehicle 3. The on-board network of the vehicle 3 includes, for example, a Controller Area Network (CAN), Ethernet (registered trademark), and Universal Serial Bus (USB (registered trademark)).

[0048] As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) sensor (positioning sensor) such as a Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor that outputs position information of the vehicle 3. The GNSS sensor includes a GNSS antenna that receives radio waves from satellites, and a GNSS circuit that obtains position information based on radio waves from at least two satellites received by the GNSS antenna.

[0049] As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a sonar (Sound Navigation And Ranging) that detects objects around the vehicle 3 based on the results of transmission and reception of sound waves. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a radar (Radio Detection And Ranging) that detects objects around the vehicle 3 based on the results of transmission and reception of radio waves. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) that detects objects around the vehicle 3 based on the results of transmission and reception of laser light. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a camera that captures images (images and / or videos) around the vehicle 3 based on visible light and / or infrared light. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a magnetic sensor that detects magnetic markers arranged along the road.

[0050] Here, at least one of the camera, the positioning sensor, and the LiDAR according to the embodiment is an example of a first sensor arranged in the vehicle 3. Also, at least one of the radar, the magnetic sensor, and the short-range wireless communication circuit (communication I / F 54) according to the embodiment is an example of a second sensor arranged in the vehicle 3. Although details will be described later, the vehicle 3 and / or the portable terminal 4 is configured to detect the current position of the vehicle 3 via this first sensor in the off-premises mode. On the other hand, the vehicle 3 and / or the portable terminal 4 is configured to detect the current position of the vehicle 3 via at least one of the first sensor and the second sensor in the on-premises mode.

[0051] As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a steering angle sensor that outputs a signal corresponding to the amount of steering wheel operation by the driver P, i.e., the steering angle. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a wheel speed sensor that outputs a signal corresponding to the rotation speed and rotation direction of the wheels of the vehicle 3. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a brake sensor that detects the amount of brake pedal operation by the driver P. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes an accelerator sensor that detects the amount of accelerator pedal operation by the driver P. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes an acceleration sensor that outputs a signal corresponding to acceleration applied to the vehicle 3. As an example, the on-board sensor of the vehicle 3 includes a gyro sensor that outputs a signal corresponding to angular velocity applied to the vehicle 3. The acceleration sensor and the gyro sensor may each be provided with three axes and configured as an inertial measurement unit (IMU).

[0052] Next, information processing executed by the information presentation system 1 configured as above will be described.

[0053] Fig. 3 is a diagram for explaining a specific area according to the embodiment. Fig. 3 illustrates a logistics base 601 that is at least one of a departure point, a relay point, and a destination point of a vehicle 3 in a case where the technology related to information presentation according to the embodiment is applied to logistics.

[0054] The logistics base 601 is provided with an entrance 605 and an exit 606 for connecting to a public road 603. A camera is provided at the entrance 605 to read the vehicle number of a vehicle 3 that has entered the logistics base 601. The entrance 605 may obtain the vehicle number of the vehicle 3 that has entered the base by communicating with the vehicle 3. FIG. 3 illustrates entrances 605a and 605b as the entrance 605. FIG. 3 also illustrates exits 606a and 606b as the exit 606.

[0055] A non-public roadway 612 is provided within the logistics base 601 and connected to the public road 603 via an entrance 605 and an exit 606. Fig. 3 illustrates roadways 612a and 612b as the roadway 612. In the example of Fig. 3, the roadway 612a is connected to the public road 603a via an entrance 605a, and connected to the public road 603b via an exit 606a. The roadway 612b is connected to the public road 603b via an entrance 605b, and connected to the public road 603a via an exit 606b.

[0056] In the logistics base 601, a plurality of berths 613 are provided for parking vehicles 3 that perform cargo handling such as loading and unloading within the premises. Fig. 3 shows a plurality of berths 613a and 613b as examples of the plurality of berths 613. The plurality of berths 613a are provided between a running path 612a within the premises and a loading and unloading space 614. The plurality of berths 613b are provided between a running path 612b within the premises and a loading and unloading space 614.

[0057] An electronic signboard 607 is provided in the logistics base 601 to display the number of a corresponding berth 613 when a vehicle 3 that has entered the base from the entrance 605 passes through. FIG. 3 illustrates electronic signboards 607a and 607b as examples of the electronic signboard 607. In the example of FIG. 3, the electronic signboard 607a displays an instruction to a vehicle 3a that has entered the logistics base 601 from the entrance 605a and is traveling on a travel path 612a to enter the berth 613 marked "3". The electronic signboard 607b displays an instruction to a vehicle 3b that has entered the logistics base 601 from the entrance 605b and is traveling on a travel path 612b to enter the berth 613 marked "11".

[0058] In the loading and unloading space 614 in the logistics base 601, electronic signboards 615 are provided at positions corresponding to each of the multiple berths 613, displaying information such as whether or not the vehicle 3 can enter and the vehicle number of the vehicle 3 that should enter. Fig. 3 illustrates electronic signboards 615a and 615b as the electronic signboards 615. In the example of Fig. 3, the electronic signboard 615a displays information to the vehicle 3a traveling on the travel path 612a and entering the berth 613 "3". The electronic signboard 615b displays information to the vehicle 3b traveling on the travel path 612b and entering the berth 613 "11".

[0059] The loading and unloading space 614 provided in the logistics base 601 is a space for moving cargo 617, 619 in the logistics base by a transport machine (vehicle 8) such as a forklift, and placing the cargo at a predetermined position. In the example of Fig. 3, the cargo 617 is cargo that is being unloaded or is to be loaded onto the next vehicle 3 that will enter the berth. The cargo 619 is cargo other than the cargo 617, or cargo whose scheduled loading time is a predetermined time or more in the future.

Note that the flow of processing described below is an example, and it is possible to change the processing order, delete some processing, and add other processing.

[0061] The flow of FIG. 4 is started before the vehicle 3 arrives at the destination logistics base 601. At this time, the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 performs screen display in an outside-premise mode in which information on route guidance outside a specific area is presented. FIG. 5 illustrates a display screen 710 displayed on the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 in the outside-premise mode. The display screen 710 includes a display 711 of a road map. The road map is based on a traffic object existing in a physical space. In other words, the road map is based on map information on a traffic infrastructure constructed in a real space (real space) such as a road. In addition, the display screen 710 includes a display 713 of the current position of the vehicle 3, a display 715 of the destination (logistics base 601), and a display 712 of a first route on the public road 603 (first type of driving road) from the current position to the destination. In addition, the display screen 710 includes a display 717 of an expected arrival time at the logistics base 601.

[0062] In this way, the display screen 710 in the off-premises mode presents the user with a first guide information showing, on a road map, a first route along the public road 603 from the current position of the vehicle 3 to the destination (the logistics base 601).

[0063] The display screen 710 in the off-premise mode is displayed on the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 until the vehicle arrives at the logistics base 601 or while the vehicle is a predetermined distance or more away from the logistics base 601. In this case, the destination of the first route may be any position in the logistics base 601 or the entrance 605 of the logistics base 601. Unlike a display screen 720 in the on-premise mode (see FIG. 6 ) described later, the display screen 710 in the off-premise mode does not include a display of the second route 609 in the premises of the logistics base 601 or a display 725 of ancillary work, although some of them may be included.

[0064] First, the processes (S101 to S110) performed while the vehicle 3 is moving to the destination, that is, before the vehicle 3 arrives at the logistics base 601, will be described.

[0065] The vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 collect information on the vehicle 3, for example, periodically (S101). In addition, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 transmit the information to the vehicle management cloud 12, for example, periodically. Then, the vehicle management cloud 12 updates the vehicle information managed by the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4, for example, periodically (S102). This information is information included in the vehicle information managed by the logistics data center 11 and the vehicle management cloud 12, and includes, for example, a vehicle ID for uniquely identifying the vehicle 3, the last measurement time of the current position of the vehicle 3, the last measurement position, and a driver ID for uniquely identifying the driver P of the vehicle 3. In addition, the vehicle management cloud 12 transmits the latest vehicle information to the logistics data center 11, for example, periodically. Then, the logistics data center 11 registers (updates) the vehicle information (which may also include the driver information) from the vehicle management cloud 12 (S103).

[0066] The vehicle information can be arbitrarily set by businesses or business groups. For example, the vehicle information may include various information such as vehicle information identification information, transport business ID, vehicle ID such as number, vehicle operation plan information (route, expected arrival date and time), last measurement time, last measurement position, vehicle type (e.g., small 2t to extra large 25t), vehicle weight, loadable weight, loadable volume, driver ID (ID indicating automatic driving for automatic driving vehicles), driver working hours (attendance status for this month), driver's extendable working hours (for determining whether a few hours of overtime can be worked today), fuel consumption / electricity consumption (t·Km / L, t·Km / kWh), CO2 emission coefficient (kg-CO2 / L, kg-CO2 / kWh), mixed loading availability (whether to accept mixed loading), and mixed loading preset conditions. The mixed loading preset conditions include information on a calculation formula that supports the determination of whether to accept mixed loading. This information may include the formula itself, such as α1 x remaining power energy in the case of mixed loading + α2 x remaining time until the desired end date and time of arrival in the case of mixed loading + α3 x remaining time of driver's extended working hours in the case of mixed loading + α4 x increase in sales (or increase in profit, increase in driver income) in the case of mixed loading + α5 x CO2 reduction in the case of mixed loading, or the entire number calculated by the formula, or the value of each α.

[0067] The logistics base cloud 13 transmits a request for data acquisition to the logistics data center 11, for example, periodically (S104). The logistics data center 11 transmits cargo handling information related to the base to the logistics base cloud 13 in response to a request from the logistics base cloud 13 (S105). Then, the logistics base cloud 13 updates the expected arrival time of the vehicle 3 at its base, for example, periodically, based on the cargo handling information from the logistics data center 11 (S106). Also, the logistics base cloud 13 updates the logistics plan within the logistics base, for example, periodically (S107). The update of this logistics plan, the details of which will be described later (see Figs. 8 to 10), includes pairing with the vehicle number (vehicle ID), berth number, and cargo, rescheduling of the cargo handling time, and the like. Here, the cargo handling information according to the embodiment is an example of on-site information.

[0068] The cargo handling information can be arbitrarily set by a business operator, a business group, etc. For example, the cargo handling information may include various information such as identification information of the cargo handling information, a transportation request ID, a transported item ID, a desired collection start date and time, a desired collection end date and time, a desired arrival start date and time, a desired arrival end date and time, whether or not a berth is reserved, a berth reservation number, a berth reservation time, ancillary work information (whether or not inspection, horizontal / vertical carrying, shelving, and labeling work are performed, and details of the contents), ancillary work expected time, a logistics base ID, and a vehicle ID.

[0069] The cargo handling information is, for example, information transmitted from the consignee to the transport company, but is not limited to this. For example, the cargo handling information may be shared via the logistics data center 11, or via a logistics service provider (intermediary). The cargo handling information may be determined in real time by the operator of the logistics base (warehouse side) according to the situation in the logistics base 601, not limited to when the consignee is determined. In this case, the operator of the logistics base (warehouse side) may notify the transport company, its vehicle 3, or mobile terminal 4.

[0070] When the logistics plan within the logistics base is updated, the logistics base cloud 13 transmits loading / unloading information including the berth number and berth reservation time information to the vehicle management cloud 12. Then, the vehicle management cloud 12 updates the loading / unloading information it manages using the loading / unloading information from the logistics base cloud 13 (S108). The vehicle management cloud 12 also transmits the updated loading / unloading information to the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4. Then, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 updates the information related to the vehicle 3 (S110). In this way, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 transmits a vehicle ID (vehicle information) for identifying the vehicle 3 to the logistics base cloud 13, and obtains loading / unloading information corresponding to the vehicle ID from the logistics base cloud 13.

[0071] At this time, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 may display the cargo handling information at that time, i.e., the scheduled cargo handling information, on the display screen 710 in the off-site mode. Note that the display content of this scheduled cargo handling information is not based on the confirmed information from the logistics base 601, and therefore may be changed when newly updated cargo handling information is received, or when the final confirmed information is received from the logistics base 601 upon arrival at the logistics base 601 or its vicinity.

[0072] As an example, the display screen 710 in the off-premise mode may include a display 718 of an estimated time of arrival at a predetermined stopping position (loading and unloading position) at the destination logistics base 601. Here, the predetermined stopping position at the destination logistics base 601 may be a position where the vehicle 3 is temporarily stopped for waiting, evacuation, waiting its turn, etc., within the logistics base 601, or a position where the vehicle 3 is stopped for loading and unloading. For example, the predetermined stopping position is a loading and unloading position where the vehicle 3 is to stop for loading and unloading, and / or a loading position where the vehicle 3 is to stop for loading and unloading. In this disclosure, stopping includes, for example, parking, regardless of the time or state where the vehicle 3 is stopped.

[0073] As an example, the display screen 710 in the off-site mode may include a display 719 of loading / unloading schedule information. In the example of FIG. 5, the display 719 of loading / unloading schedule information includes a display of a schedule of a predetermined stop position (loading / unloading position) at the destination logistics base 601, such as a berth number indicating the berth 613, such as "berth #2". The display 719 of loading / unloading schedule information also includes a display of scheduled task information indicating a schedule of ancillary work (tasks related to loading / unloading) that the driver P should perform after stopping at the loading / unloading position within the premises of the logistics base 601, which is the destination, such as "inspection, shelving". The display 719 of loading / unloading schedule information also includes a display of schedule information indicating a schedule of a time to complete loading / unloading and depart from the destination logistics base 601, such as "depart at 17:47". The schedule information may be included in the loading / unloading information as a part of the task information.

[0074] Next, we will explain the processing (S111 to S116) that occurs from the time when the vehicle 3 approaches the destination logistics base 601, or arrives at the logistics base 601, until the time when the vehicle 3 departs from the logistics base 601, i.e., when the vehicle 3 is located in the vicinity of or within the premises of the logistics base 601.

[0075] The logistics base cloud 13 confirms or determines the entry time of the vehicle 3 into the logistics base 601, for example, in the same manner as in the processing of S104 to S108, or based on the latest already acquired loading and unloading information (S111). Furthermore, the logistics base cloud 13 finally determines the loading and unloading information including the berth number and the berth reservation time according to the logistics plan within the logistics base, for example, in the same manner as in the processing of S107, based on the confirmed or determined entry time, and notifies the vehicle management cloud 12 of the finally determined loading and unloading information. Then, the vehicle management cloud 12 updates the loading and unloading information it manages using the finally determined loading and unloading information from the logistics base cloud 13, and notifies the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 of the finally determined loading and unloading information. Furthermore, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 update the information related to the vehicle 3 (S114). In this way, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 obtains loading / unloading information including the loading position (berth 613) where the vehicle 3 should stop for loading / unloading within the premises of the logistics center 601 from the logistics center cloud 13 of the logistics center 601 after the vehicle 3 starts traveling on the public road 603 toward the logistics center 601 and before it reaches within a specified range from the logistics center 601.

[0076] In addition, when updating the loading and unloading information (step S108) and notifying the finalized loading and unloading information (S113), the logistics base cloud 13 may notify the loading and unloading information directly to the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 without going through the vehicle management cloud 12.

[0077] Here, the explanation will be continued taking as an example a case where it is detected that the vehicle 3 has entered the premises of the logistics base 601 or that the vehicle 3 has approached within a predetermined distance from the logistics base 601. The entry of the vehicle 3 into the premises or the approach within the predetermined distance may be detected by a GNSS sensor in the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4, or may be detected by the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 performing wireless communication with the entrance 605. Alternatively, the entry of the vehicle 3 into the premises or the approach within the predetermined distance may be detected by identifying the vehicle number or the like through image recognition using a camera provided at the entrance 605 and querying the database of the logistics base cloud 13.

[0078] After receiving the notification of the finalized loading / unloading information and detecting that the vehicle 3 has entered the premises of the logistics base 601 or has approached within a predetermined distance from the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 switch vehicle control including screen display to the premises mode (S115). For example, the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 performs screen display in the premises mode showing a map of the logistics base 601, for example, in the premises mode presenting information related to route guidance within a specific area based on the finalized loading / unloading information (S116).

[0079] Thereafter, when it is detected that the vehicle 3 has left the premises of the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 switches the vehicle control including the screen display to the outside premises mode (S117).

[0080] For example, when the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 receives a notification of the completion of loading and unloading from the logistics base cloud 13, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 detects the exit of the vehicle 3 from the premises of the logistics base 601. For example, when it is detected that the vehicle 3 is located near the exit 606 or outside the premises based on position information obtained using a GNSS sensor, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 detects the exit of the vehicle 3 from the premises of the logistics base 601. For example, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 detects the exit of the vehicle 3 from the premises of the logistics base 601 based on the result of wireless communication with the exit 606 or the identification of the vehicle ID based on an image from a camera installed at the exit 606.

[0081] As an example, when it is detected that the vehicle 3 has left the premises of the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 transitions from the display screen 720 in the premises mode displaying the second guide information to the display screen 710 in the outside premises mode displaying the first guide information, thereby switching the displayed guidance information. As an example, when the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 was performing autonomous driving in the premises mode, it switches the driving mode from the autonomous driving mode to the manual driving mode.

[0082] FIG. 6 illustrates a display screen 720 displayed on the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 in the premises mode. The display screen 720 includes a display 721 of a base map (premises map). The display screen 720 may also include a part of a display 711 of a road map and a display 712 of a first route on a public road. The premises map is based on virtual traffic objects existing in cyberspace, acquired from the logistics base cloud 13, for example. In other words, the premises map is based on map information related to virtual traffic infrastructure depicted in cyberspace (virtual space), i.e., that does not exist in real space. In other words, the second guidance information presented on the display screen 720 in the premises mode shows information related to virtual traffic objects on the premises map. The display screen 720 also includes at least two of a display 713 of the current position of the vehicle 3, a display of the berth 613 at the stopping position, and a display of a second route 609 on a non-public road 612 (a second type of road) from the current position to the stopping position. The display screen 720 also includes a display 718 of the estimated time of arrival at the stopping position at the logistics base 601.

[0083] Here, the second route 609 is a route on the travel path 612 within the premises that guides the vehicle 3 that has entered the logistics base 601 from the entrance 605 until it stops at a designated stopping position (for example, a berth 613). For example, FIG. 3 illustrates a second route 609a for a vehicle 3a that has entered the logistics base 601 from the entrance 605a, in which the vehicle 3a advances to a berth 613a marked with "3" displayed on electronic signboards 607a, 615a, etc., stops at a stop line 611a marked with "3", and then reverses to enter the premises. FIG. 3 also illustrates a second route 609b for a vehicle 3b that has entered the logistics base 601 from the entrance 605b, in which the vehicle 3b advances to a berth 613a marked with "11" displayed on electronic signboards 607b, 615b, etc., stops at a stop line 611b marked with "11", and then reverses to enter the premises.

[0084] In this way, the display screen 720 in the premises mode presents the user with the second guidance information showing the second route 609 related to the travel path 612 in the premises on the premises map. In other words, when the vehicle 3 arrives within a predetermined range from the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 switches the guidance information displayed on the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 from the first guidance information to the second guidance information. In other words, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 is configured to switch the map data referred to inside / outside the premises between the road map and the premises map. With this configuration, the driver P can safely drive in the premises even if the logistics base 601 is unfamiliar to him / her and can also streamline the traffic at the logistics base 601 based on the latest loading and unloading information.

[0085] The number of the berth 613 to be entered, which is presented to the vehicle 3, is not limited to being displayed on the electronic signboards 607, 615, but may be displayed on the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4. The information indicating the berth 613 to be entered may be any information capable of identifying the berth 613 to be entered, and is not limited to the number of the berth 613, but may be a display form that highlights the frame or position of the berth, for example, as shown in Fig. 6. The information indicating the berth 613 to be entered may be displayed by displaying the second route 609 to be taken.

[0086] The parking position of the vehicle 3, such as the berth 613, in the logistics base 601 may change depending on the logistics situation in the logistics base 601. For this reason, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 are configured to acquire the latest or final information from a computer outside the vehicle 3, such as the logistics base cloud 13. The vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 are configured to automatically switch and display information indicating the second route 609 from the current location of the vehicle 3 to the berth 613 where the vehicle 3 should be parked, or information indicating the parking position of the berth 613, etc., in accordance with the acquired information. In other words, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 is configured to display the second guidance information including the second route 609 related to the parking position of the vehicle 3 at that time whenever necessary, inside the premises of the logistics base 601, unlike outside the premises.

[0087] The second route 609 within the premises may be displayed including the stop line 611, or may be displayed simply as a line simply connecting the entrance 605 and the berth 613 where the vehicle is to stop.

[0088] Furthermore, on the display screen 720 in the premises mode, information (task information) regarding the incidental work to be performed by the driver P after parking at the destination within the premises (the berth 613 where the vehicle should be parked) may be displayed as an image or notified by voice. In other words, the second guidance information presented on the display screen 720 in the premises mode includes task information indicating the business tasks, which are work to be performed by the driver P within the premises, acquired from the logistics base cloud 13 together with the loading and unloading information.

[0089] Here, ancillary work refers to work tasks related to loading and unloading performed by driver P, and includes at least one of the tasks of unloading from vehicle 3, loading into vehicle 3, sorting luggage, packing luggage, and administrative tasks related to the transportation and shipping of luggage.

[0090] For example, the ancillary work may be an inspection work for checking the quality and quantity of the luggage. For example, the ancillary work may be a horizontal / vertical lifting decision work for deciding whether to lift the luggage horizontally or vertically when loading the luggage, depending on the shape and weight of the luggage. For example, the ancillary work may be a stacking work for efficient transportation of luggage when loading the luggage onto the vehicle 3, or a shelf-putting work for carrying the luggage to a predetermined position at a logistics center when unloading the luggage from the truck. For example, the ancillary work may be a labeling work for attaching a label indicating the delivery destination of the luggage to the luggage. Alternatively, the information on the ancillary work may be information indicating the presence or absence of work related to at least one of these works. Furthermore, the information on the ancillary work may include information indicating an estimated time required for the ancillary work and information indicating a scheduled departure time.

[0091] 6, for example, shows a display 725 of information related to ancillary work. This display 725 includes information indicating that the destination within the premises is berth 613 with berth number "3." Display 725 also includes information indicating that the ancillary work in loading and unloading is inspection and shelving. Display 725 also includes information indicating that the scheduled time of departure after loading and unloading is 17:47.

[0092] In this way, driver P can easily check the finalized ancillary work upon arrival on the premises mode display screen 720, allowing him to perform only the necessary ancillary work without waste, thereby improving the efficiency of loading and unloading work and reducing the time required.

[0093] As described above, the display screen 710 in the off-premise mode displays the first guidance information indicating the first route of the public road 603 on a road map of the real space, i.e., real traffic structures, in the same way as in normal car navigation. On the other hand, the display screen 720 in the on-premise mode displays the second guidance information indicating the second route of the travel path 612 on an on-premise map provided by the logistics base cloud 13. These maps may be configured by dividing them into static data that does not change with time, such as the travel path 612 and buildings, as in a dynamic map, and dynamic data that changes with time, such as the vehicle 3 and loading and unloading information.

[0094] For example, the logistics base cloud 13 may transmit not only the cargo handling information but also a dynamic map of the premises of the logistics base 601 to the vehicle 3 to support automatic or manual driving of the vehicle 3. For example, in the process of S116, the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 may switch the driving mode of the vehicle 3 from a manual driving mode in which the vehicle 3 is moved according to the driving operation of the driver P to an automatic driving mode in which the vehicle 3 is moved based on the finally confirmed cargo handling information. In this case, the vehicle 3 may switch the driving mode to travel in the premises in an automatic driving manner only when the vehicle 3 receives a dynamic map including dynamic data from the logistics base cloud 13.

[0095] For example, when the vehicle 3 enters the premises of the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 switch the map to be displayed to the dynamic map received from the logistics base cloud 13. In addition, the control unit 31 of the vehicle 3 may simultaneously switch the driving mode of the vehicle 3 from the manual driving mode to the automatic driving mode so that the vehicle 3 travels in an automatic driving manner according to the stopping position (berth 613) that is the final destination and the direction to stop at that stopping position.

[0096] In this case, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 may display an image or output a voice on the HMI 33, 43 to inform the driver that the driving mode has been switched to automatic driving according to a dynamic map of the premises.

[0097] For example, the display screen 720 in Fig. 6 includes an identification object display 722 for making it possible to identify which map data is being referenced when inside / outside the premises. This identification object is information indicating whether the guidance information currently being displayed on the HMI 33, 43 is the first guidance information or the second guidance information. In the display screen 720 in Fig. 6, the identification object display 722 shows an example in which "base map" is displayed in the premises mode using the premises map.

[0098] For example, the display screen 720 of FIG. 6 includes a display 722 of an identification object for making the current driving mode identifiable. This identification object is information indicating whether the current driving mode of the vehicle 3 is manual driving or automatic driving. In the display screen 720 of FIG. 6, the display 722 of the identification object illustrates a case where "automatic driving" is displayed in the premises mode using the premises map. In this case, the second route 609 indicates a planned route for automatic driving. In addition, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 may output message information 729 such as "Switched to automatic driving. Moving to berth #3" to indicate that the driving mode is switched to automatic driving according to the dynamic map of the premises. Note that the display mode of the second route 609 may be different between automatic driving and manual driving. For example, the color, pattern, etc. of the line may be changed to make it easier for the driver P to visually recognize which mode the driver P is driving in.

[0099] For example, the display screen 720 of FIG. 6 may include an operation button display 727 for switching the driving mode between automatic and manual within the premises. FIG. 6 illustrates a "switch to manual driving" button as an example of the operation button display 727 displayed when the automatic driving mode is activated within the premises. For example, even after the automatic driving mode is activated within the premises, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 may automatically switch to the manual driving mode when the operation button display 727 is pressed, when the driver P operates any of the brake, accelerator, and steering wheel, or when a time delay or error is confirmed in the dynamic map sent from the logistics base cloud 13. In addition, for example, when the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 automatically switches to the manual driving mode, it may display a notice to that effect on the screen or output a voice message. In addition, the operation button display 727 may be displayed when the manual driving mode is activated within the premises, or may be displayed on the display screen 710 in the outside premises mode.

[0100] In this way, by displaying information that distinguishes between a normal road map outside the premises and automated driving according to a real-time dynamic map inside the premises, the driver P can easily and clearly understand whether the current guidance information is in the on-premises mode or the off-premises mode. In addition, the driver P can easily and clearly understand whether the current driving is manual driving such as level 2 or below, or automated driving such as level 3 or above.

[0101] Note that the map does not necessarily have to be switched between outside and inside the premises. For example, a common map may be used, and if its scale is larger than a predetermined scale value, it may be treated as an outside premises map, and if it is smaller, it may be treated as an inside premises map. Note that this scale may be automatically switched depending on the size of the premises that are the destination, intermediate point, and departure point.

[0102] The above-mentioned information processing may be realized by transmitting and receiving information between the logistics base cloud 13 and the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4. Fig. 7 is a sequence diagram showing another example of the flow of information processing executed in the information presentation system 1 according to the embodiment. Here, differences from the information processing exemplified in Fig. 4 will be mainly described, and overlapping descriptions will be omitted as appropriate.

[0103] 7 starts with the first guide information (display screen 710) being presented in the outside-premises mode that presents information related to route guidance outside a specific area. When the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 arrives at the entrance 605 of the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 notifies the logistics base cloud 13 of its arrival, for example by communicating with the entrance 605 (S201).

[0104] For example, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 transmits a notification including a vehicle ID to the entrance 605 of the logistics base 601. The arrival of the vehicle 3 may be detected in the logistics base cloud 13 by identifying the vehicle number from an image of a camera installed at the entrance 605, and the arrival of the vehicle 3 may be detected in the logistics base cloud 13, or the arrival may be notified to the logistics base cloud 13 by transmitting current location information or information indicating that the vehicle 3 has arrived within the premises of a specific logistics base from the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 (an application running thereon). The information included in the notification or the information identified in the logistics base cloud 13 is not limited to the vehicle ID, and may be any information that can uniquely identify the vehicle 3 entering the premises.

[0105] The logistics center cloud 13 acquires the latest loading and unloading information linked to the vehicle ID (S202), for example, in a manner similar to the processing of S111 to S113 in FIG. 4, and returns the loading and unloading information, such as the final confirmed berth number, for the acquired vehicle ID to the vehicle 3 (S203).

[0106] The vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 acquires the finalized cargo handling information from the logistics base cloud 13 (S204), for example, in the same manner as the processing of S114 to S115 in Fig. 4, and switches the vehicle control including the screen display to the premises mode (S205). At this time, the HMI 33 of the vehicle 3 or the HMI 43 of the mobile terminal 4 displays the display screen 720 of the premises mode (S206), for example, in the same manner as the processing of S116 in Fig. 4.

[0107] Furthermore, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 may switch the driving mode to the autonomous driving mode when switching the vehicle control to the premises mode, as described above.

[0108] The timing of switching to the on-premise mode is not limited to this. In the flow of Fig. 7, for example, similar to the flow of Fig. 4, the mode may be switched from the off-premise mode to the on-premise mode during the period from when the vehicle 3 approaches within a predetermined distance from the logistics base 601 to when it passes through the gate of the entrance 605. In addition, the process of switching to the autonomous driving may be executed after the vehicle 3 stops in a predetermined space in the premises.

[0109] Thereafter, the vehicle 3 travels along the second route to a predetermined stopping position such as the specified berth 613, as described above with reference to Fig. 4, and after stopping at the predetermined stopping position (loading and unloading position), the loading and unloading work (ancillary work) is carried out by the driver P or the like (S207). After the loading and unloading work is completed, the vehicle 3 travels along the specified second route to the exit 606 as described above with reference to Fig. 4 (S208), and transmits a notification including, for example, the vehicle ID to the exit 606 of the logistics base 601 (S209).

[0110] After that, the logistics base cloud 13 updates the vehicle information, the baggage information, and the loading and unloading information (S210). For example, the logistics base cloud 13 updates the data of the loading and unloading information it manages by assuming that the vehicle 3 with the notified vehicle ID loaded (or unloaded) the baggage with the transported goods ID that was at the logistics base 601 and departed from the logistics base 601 at the time when it passed through the gate of the exit 606 (S210).

[0111] The luggage information can be arbitrarily set by a business operator, a business group, etc. For example, the luggage information may include various information such as identification information of luggage information, a transportation request ID, a desired collection start date and time, a desired collection end date and time, a collection location, collection-related work information, a desired arrival start date and time, a desired arrival end date and time, an arrival location, arrival-related work information (same as at the time of collection), a transported item ID, packaging information (identification codes of cardboard, pallet, bag, box, can, tray, envelope, etc.), a transportation package weight, a transportation package volume, a mixed loading condition (mixing possible or not, presence or absence of danger / odor, requirements for temperature, humidity, and vibration), a sender ID, a sender address, a sender telephone number, a consignee ID, a consignee address, a consignee telephone number, freight information (collection date and time, arrival date and time, desired / upper limit freight paid by the sender for each transportation method (CO2 emission amount)), and a freight billing destination code. The collection-related work information is information that details the additional work that the driver must do when collecting the package, and such work may include signing paper documents, scanning and signing on a terminal, etc.

[0112] The cargo handling information data may be managed by the logistics data center 11, similarly to the flow of FIG.

[0113] Furthermore, when it is detected that the vehicle 3 has left the premises of the logistics base 601, the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4 switches the vehicle control including the screen display to an outside premises mode (S211).

[0114] The timing of switching to the outside premises mode is not limited to this. In the flow of FIG. 7, for example, similar to the flow of FIG. 4, the mode may be switched from the inside premises mode to the outside premises mode between the place where the vehicle 3 stops for loading and unloading (for example, the berth 613) and the gate of the exit 606. The process of switching from automatic driving to manual driving may be executed after the vehicle 3 stops in a predetermined space in the premises. In this way, detailed navigation dedicated to the inside of the premises of the logistics center may be performed directly between the logistics center cloud 13 and the vehicle 3 and / or the mobile terminal 4. This allows the driver P (or the automatically driven vehicle 3) to be notified of the latest detailed route and parking position in an easy-to-understand and accurate manner.

[0115] Here, a dynamic map of the premises of the logistics base 601, generated by, for example, the logistics base cloud 13, will be described. Fig. 8 and Fig. 9 are diagrams for explaining the construction of a traffic infrastructure in a cyberspace (virtual space) for a specific area according to the embodiment.

[0116] The logistics center cloud 13 updates and manages information on the facilities, cargo, and vehicles 3, 8 at the logistics center 601, and can instruct safe and efficient operation plans for the vehicles 3, 8 operated within the center by either autonomous or manned driving.

[0117] In the loading / unloading space 614 of the logistics base 601, various vehicles 8 such as forklifts are operated according to their operation plans. FIG. 8 illustrates an operation plan 810 of a vehicle 8c operated in the loading / unloading space 614 of the logistics base 601. The operation plan 810 includes, for example, position coordinate information of the vehicle 8c, a task (loading / unloading work) to be performed at that position, a scheduled time of arrival at that position, and a difference between the scheduled time and the current time (in the case of 10:53:10). The operation plan 810 is information that can be displayed in, for example, a table format. The operation plan 810 is transmitted to the vehicle 8c and is used to support the driving operation of the control unit 31 that controls the automatic driving of the vehicle 8c or a manned driver.

[0118] FIG. 9 shows the coordinates of each operation plan on a dynamic map in the case where two vehicles 8a and 8c share and simultaneously transport luggage 617 of "A" to "C" in the loading space 614. In the example of FIG. 9, each of the squares of "A" to "H" indicates an individual luggage 617 to be moved in the loading space 614 or an individual luggage 619 arranged therein. The luggage 617a of "A" is a luggage to be moved by the vehicle 8a from a position 633a of the coordinate position "X1" to a position 634a of the coordinate position "X4" along the travel path 631. The luggage 617b of "B" is a luggage scheduled to be moved by the vehicle 8a from a position 633b of the coordinate position "X7" to a position 634b of the coordinate position "X10" along the travel path 631 after the luggage 617a of "A". The luggage 617c of "C" is luggage that is moved by the vehicle 8c from a position 633c of the coordinate position "Y3" to a position 634c of the coordinate position "Y6" along the travel path 631. The luggage 619 of "D" to "H" are luggage for which an operation plan is not yet determined at present or luggage for which there is still time before transportation according to the operation plan. Here, the coordinate position "Xn (n is 1 to 10)" represents the event positions 632 on the operation plan of the vehicle 8a in chronological order in the virtual space representing the logistics base 601. Similarly, the coordinate position "Yn (n is 1 to 6)" represents the event positions 632 such as the departure (movement start) position, arrival position, passing position, loading (loading, unloading) position, and direction change (rotation) position on the operation plan 810 of the vehicle 8c in the virtual space representing the logistics base 601 in chronological order.

[0119] In the present disclosure, a virtual traffic object may include one or more of the coordinate positions "Xn" and "Yn", their arrival / passing time information, the travel route (the virtual driving path 631 indicated by "Xn" → "Xn+1" and "Yn → Yn+1"), and task information thereon. The event positions of the vehicles 8 expressed by the coordinate positions "Xn" and "Yn", the travel path 631 connecting them, and traffic objects indicating traffic infrastructure within the premises such as signs are virtual traffic objects that are not located in the real space. For this reason, the current situation is generated as a digital twin in the logistics base cloud 13 based on the position information acquired by a position sensor such as a GNSS sensor provided on the vehicle 8 such as a forklift and the identification code information (code information such as a QR code (registered trademark) or a barcode, or BLE beacon information) attached to the luggage read by the vehicle 8 such as a forklift. Then, the logistics base cloud 13 formulates an efficient and safe operation plan based on the information indicating the current situation of the luggage and the vehicle 8, and supplies it to each vehicle 8. The vehicle 8 that receives the operation plan (instruction) is automatically or manually driven based on the operation plan.

[0120] The event position 632 of the vehicle 8 and its travel path 631 expressed by the coordinate positions "Xn" and "Yn" may or may not be marked on the road surface (real space) within the premises of the logistics base 601. In this logistics base 601, traffic infrastructure (traffic objects) such as roads, signs, intersections, and traffic lights are not arranged in the physical space. Meanwhile, between the multiple vehicles 8 moving in the space within the logistics base 601, a route as exemplified in FIG. 9 or a route that each vehicle 8 will take within a predetermined time from the current time is shared, for example, directly or indirectly via the logistics base cloud 13. The traffic objects arranged in this virtual space are used for controlling the autonomous driving vehicle or for driving operations by a manned driver.

[0121] The logistics base cloud 13 adjusts the operation plan of each vehicle 8 so that moving objects such as vehicles 8 do not come close to each other. Specifically, the logistics base cloud 13 creates an operation plan to increase logistics efficiency, and at the same time adjusts the route, the time of passing through points, the order of luggage transportation, and the like so that moving objects such as vehicles 8 operate while maintaining a predetermined distance or more apart.

[0122] 9, vehicles 8a and 8c may approach each other within a predetermined distance while vehicle 8c travels through the section from coordinate positions "Y3" to "Y4" according to operation plan 810. Therefore, logistics base cloud 13 creates an operation plan for vehicle 8a so that vehicle 8a is located physically far enough away, for example, in the section from coordinate positions "X3" to "X5", during the time period when vehicle 8c passes through the section from coordinate positions "Y3" to "Y4".

[0123] Note that virtual traffic objects such as a virtual road 631, an event position 632, a sign, an intersection, and a traffic light that are constructed in a virtual space and have no shape in the real space may be displayed on the HMI of the input / output I / F 53 of the logistics base cloud 13, the IVI of the vehicle 8, an information terminal such as a smartphone, a tablet, or a personal computer as shown in Fig. 9, or may be displayed in a form superimposed on the real space via an HMD or an AR image. Also, the vehicle 8 may project traffic objects such as a virtual road onto the loading space 614 or the ground using projection mapping.

[0124] In the above description, the vehicle 8 has been taken as an example, but the present disclosure is not limited to this, and may be applied to any moving object that moves within a specific area, including the vehicle 3. For example, the present disclosure may be applied not only to the logistics base 601 and logistics warehouse, but also to cases where vehicles transporting cargo move simultaneously within the same area, such as airports, train stations, freight train terminals, unloading ports, and factories.

[0125] FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a mode of presenting information about a specific area according to the embodiment. For example, a display screen 730 showing the status of each berth 613 is displayed on the IVI of the vehicle 8. A similar display screen may be displayed as a management screen of the logistics base 601 in the logistics base cloud 13. This display screen 730 includes the operation plan 820 of the vehicle itself, and the latest information generated by the logistics base cloud 13, such as whether the vehicle 3 has already entered each berth 613, and if not, the expected arrival time, the vehicle ID of the vehicle 3, incidental information on loading and unloading, the expected completion time of loading and unloading, and the berth number for which work should be prioritized, for each berth 613. The vehicle 8 efficiently arranges and unloads luggage by automatic driving or manned driving based on the information from the logistics base cloud 13.

[0126] For example, the display screen 730 includes a display of a dynamic map 731. In the dynamic map 731, the route (traveling path) of the vehicle itself and the routes of other vehicles may be displayed so as to be visually distinguishable. As an example, in the display screen 730, the route may be displayed with different colors, line shapes and / or patterns for each route in order to make them visually distinguishable. The vehicles displayed on the display screen 730 are not limited to vehicles 8 such as forklifts that travel only within the logistics base 601, but also include vehicles 3 such as trucks that travel outside the logistics base 601. In other words, the display screen 730 may be displayed by various vehicles that enter the area indicated by the dynamic map 731 or within the premises.

[0127] For example, the operation plan 820 on the display screen 730 may be displayed with completed tasks deleted to make it easier to view, as shown in FIG. 10, or may be displayed so that the entire plan can be easily grasped, as shown in FIG.

[0128] FIG. 10 illustrates a display screen 730 by the IVI of the vehicle 8a. A dynamic map 731 of the display screen 730 includes a display of the vehicle 3 that has entered the berth 613 and the vehicle 8 moving through the loading space 614. A driving route 732 of the vehicle 8a is displayed on the dynamic map 731. This driving route 732 is, for example, a route of the vehicle up to a predetermined time ahead. In the example of FIG. 10, the driving route 732 shows a route up to a predetermined time ahead when the vehicle travels along the route of coordinate positions "X4" → "X5" → "X6" → "X7" in order to transport the baggage 617a of "A" along the route of coordinate positions "X3" → "X4" and unload it at the coordinate position "X4", and then unload the baggage 617b of "B" at the position 633b of the coordinate position "X7".

[0129] Incidentally, the event positions after the coordinate position "X8" are not displayed because they are event positions that are a certain time or more ahead at the current time, but may be displayed.

[0130] In addition, the route from coordinate position "X7" to "X8" after "B"'s baggage 617b is unloaded at position 633b at coordinate position "X7" is a route that traces the route from coordinate position "X6" to "X7" in reverse, so the display may overlap and reduce visibility. For this reason, for overlapping routes, a route that does not overlap may be displayed, or a shifted display may be used.

[0131] In addition, the display screen 730 may change the color or the display form of the line for the route of the vehicle according to the time margin or the recommended travel speed for the route. As a result, the display screen 730, which changes the display form of the route between the vehicle and other vehicles and displays only the route up to a predetermined time ahead, can display the operation plan for the near future in an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand manner, so that the driver of the vehicle 8 and the manager of the logistics base 601 can check the upcoming schedule (plan) at a glance.

[0132] In addition, on the display screen 730 for the site manager of the logistics base 601, trouble spots such as routes with time delays may be displayed with red lines to distinguish them from others. Also, luggage that has already reached its loading time may be displayed in an easy-to-understand manner by visually distinguishing it from other luggage, such as by encircling it in red or filling it in. Similarly, berths 613 that have already reached their arrival time and vehicles 3 that have already passed their departure time may be displayed to distinguish them from other berths 613 and vehicles 3.

[0133] The display screen 730 also includes a display of the people P1 and P2 in the loading and unloading space 614. The people P1 and P2 are detected by a method such as analyzing a camera image obtained by a camera installed in the logistics base 601 such as the loading and unloading space 614, detecting the position using a short-range wireless communication such as a BLE beacon, or reading data from a device equipped with a GNSS circuit worn by the people P1 and P2, and are superimposed and displayed on the premises map. In this way, by arranging the people P1 and P2 on the map in real time, an operation plan can be made so that the route of each vehicle 8 is at least a certain distance away from the people, thereby improving safety within the base and realizing a work site with fewer accidents. In addition, the people P1 and P2 who are engaged in work in this section (loading and unloading space 614) can also work with peace of mind because their position information is reflected in real time, knowing that the vehicle 8 will not approach within a certain distance.

[0134] In this way, when moving bodies such as the vehicles 3 and 8 pass through a certain large site, the information presentation system 1 according to the embodiment does not install physical traffic objects representing traffic infrastructure such as fixed roads and traffic control functions (lanes, traffic lights, etc.), but flexibly defines an optimal operation plan at that time using virtual traffic objects according to the current situation such as the positions and states of the cargo 617 and 619 in the logistics base 601, the positions and states of the forklift (vehicle 8) and truck (vehicle 3), and the availability of the berth 613, and transmits it to each vehicle. By having the vehicles move and handle cargo according to the operation plan defined by the virtual traffic objects, the efficiency of logistics can be improved. In addition, the status can be displayed on a screen or projected onto the real world, allowing the site manager to easily grasp the status.

[0135] In addition, in the information presentation system 1 according to the embodiment, the electronic signboards 607, 615 and other status / information notification equipment in the logistics base 601 are also controlled by the logistics base cloud 13, and the status and operation state can be changed in real time. This allows the drivers of the vehicles 3, 8 such as trucks, or other workers engaged in loading and unloading work at the logistics base 601 to appropriately share the status at that time in real time. Therefore, the information presentation system 1 according to the embodiment can improve the efficiency and safety of work in the logistics base 601.

[0136] According to the information presentation system 1 of the present disclosure, virtual traffic infrastructure such as virtual roads, virtual speed signs, virtual intersections, virtual stop positions, virtual traffic lights, and virtual crosswalks can be deployed on a dynamic map, and the dynamic map can be shared with vehicles entering the map (specific area). This allows multiple vehicles to safely and efficiently travel on non-public roads within the area, just as in the case where traffic infrastructure such as real roads and traffic lights are provided in real space. In this way, the information presentation system 1 of the present disclosure constructs virtual traffic infrastructure such as virtual intersections and virtual traffic lights when entering a specific area managed by a dynamic map from a general road (public road) outside the specific area, and therefore can use location information including sensors outside the vehicle (for example, detection of vehicle ID and vehicle position by a camera) without relying only on the on-board sensor of the vehicle switched to autonomous driving, thereby improving the safety of autonomous driving.

[0137] The information presentation system 1 according to the above embodiment may be configured to support safe driving of a vehicle using a real-time dynamic map collected by a sensor installed in a traffic infrastructure, without relying only on an on-board sensor, in order to safely travel between public roads, sidewalks, and within a premises. On the other hand, when a vehicle traveling by automatic or manual driving detects a dangerous situation such as a collision by an on-board sensor installed in the vehicle, the vehicle may autonomously avoid the dangerous situation to drive safely even if the dynamic map does not indicate the dangerous situation (i.e., it takes priority over driving support using the dynamic map) or notify the driver of the detected dangerous situation.

[0138] In the information presentation system 1 according to the embodiment described above, route guidance in the outside premises mode based on the first guide information for a point away from the logistics base 601, i.e., outside the specific area, is provided based on map information of roads and other traffic infrastructure installed in real space that is not easily changed, which is managed, for example, by a car navigation system mounted on the vehicle 3. Meanwhile, route guidance in the inside premises mode based on the second guide information within the specific area is provided based on map information of virtual traffic infrastructure (traffic objects) that is constructed in cyberspace and does not exist in real space. In other words, this inside premises mode route guidance displays these virtual traffic infrastructures that do not exist in physical space (real space) so that people in the real space can confirm them. In other words, the car navigation information referred to outside the premises is based on traffic infrastructure in the real world, and the car navigation information referred to inside the premises is based on traffic infrastructure in the virtual world, or uses both traffic infrastructure in the real world and traffic infrastructure in the virtual world. The presentation of this car navigation information is switched by the control unit 31 when the vehicle's position or passage through a gate is detected.

[0139] Here, in the route guidance in the outside premises mode based on the map information in the real space, statistical information such as traffic congestion information can be displayed, but the operation routes of individual other vehicles are not detected and are not displayed. In contrast, the route guidance in the inside premises mode based on the map information in the cyber space according to the present disclosure is significantly different in that it can display the position information and operation plan information (such as the immediate route) of not only the vehicle itself but also one or more other vehicles in the dynamic map.

[0140] Moreover, the map information of the real space referred to in the route guidance in the outside premises mode does not change for a long period of time. On the other hand, in the route guidance in the inside premises mode, the map information of the cyber space referred to and the operation plan there may change from moment to moment, and the display and application can be updated according to the change. This is based on the fact that information on vehicles and luggage in the specific target area is collected in real time in the logistics base cloud 13, and an optimal operation plan can be instructed to each vehicle so as to realize safe and high logistics efficiency in the logistics base 601. For example, in the real space, vehicles cannot run where there are no roads. On the other hand, in the specific area targeted by the dynamic map in the logistics base 601, virtual running paths (roads) can be freely set within the area where vehicles can pass, and specific vehicles can be made to run on the set virtual running paths. Therefore, it is possible to improve the efficiency of operation within the area, such as planning movement on the shortest route according to the situation, rather than installing transportation infrastructure such as physically fixed roads.

[0141] Furthermore, in a specific area where there is no traffic infrastructure in real space, in the case of manned driving, the driver cannot directly see the traffic infrastructure such as roads, intersections, and traffic lights. In such a situation, the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure can display the route defined by the virtual traffic infrastructure on the vehicle's IVI screen and provide voice guidance in route guidance within a specific area in the premises mode. In this case, the second guidance information such as the virtual traffic infrastructure, map information, and the vehicle's travel route can be superimposed and displayed in front of the driver's field of vision using techniques such as HUD, HMD, and projection mapping.

[0142] In the above embodiment, the information presentation system 1 is applied to the logistics base 601, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure can be appropriately applied to a space that has a certain large area such as an airport, a port, a civil engineering work site, a mining site, a construction site, a factory logistics site, a tourist site, etc., and has a different traffic infrastructure from a public road and does not have real roads or traffic lights. When the space in such a specific area is made into a dynamic map, operation management and work management can be performed with reference to the dynamic map for any vehicle that runs in the specific area by automatic driving or manned driving.

[0143] For example, a case where the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure is applied to a passenger business operator will be described. For example, a driver who drives an express bus (vehicle) that requires seat reservations may need to check how many passengers board or disembark at each bus stop, and where the boarded passengers sit. In such a case, when the control unit 31 detects that the bus has stopped at a bus stop, the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure displays information (task information) for the driver's work-related incidental tasks to be performed when the bus stops at a bus stop, such as checking the number of passengers boarding or disembarking, or checking the seat positions of the boarded passengers, on the IVI of the vehicle 3 or the driver's mobile terminal 4, thereby facilitating the driver's confirmation work. In addition, the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure can present information indicating the presence or absence of checked baggage and its storage location to the passengers who have disembarked so that the passengers who have checked baggage do not forget the baggage in the vehicle, and can also notify the driver.

[0144] For example, a case where the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure is applied to a civil engineering company will be described. For example, in civil engineering work, there are cases where the destination and arrival time of each vehicle are specified in detail based on the operation plan and work plan of the dedicated heavy equipment (vehicle), the operation plan of each truck (vehicle), etc., and the work (task) content such as where and when each vehicle is to be loaded with civil engineering work is specified. However, in general, civil engineering sites do not have plotted land like the logistics base 601, so it is difficult to improve work efficiency. In such a situation, the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure can determine the operation plan of each vehicle entering the site according to the progress of the civil engineering work so as to make the work between each vehicle safe and efficient, and can instruct the operation plan (work plan) of each vehicle based on the determined individual operation plan. Specifically, the information presentation system 1 according to the present disclosure can manage and instruct the operation of each vehicle at the work site based on map information of the virtual transportation infrastructure, similar to the logistics base 601. Therefore, according to the information presentation system 1 of the present disclosure, even at a civil engineering work site where the shape of the land changes daily, the operation / work of each vehicle can proceed smoothly. In other words, according to the information presentation system 1 of the present disclosure, each worker such as a driver can easily confirm the second guidance information such as when, where, and in what direction a truck (vehicle) carrying in / out civil engineering work should stop, and what ancillary work is required at that stopping position. This allows on-site civil engineering work to proceed efficiently.

[0145] In the above-described embodiments, the vehicle 3 is, for example, a truck or other automobile, but is not limited thereto. As the vehicle 3 according to the present disclosure, various vehicles such as a wheelchair, bicycle, electric kick scooter, automobile, motorcycle, and railroad car can be appropriately used. In addition, the drive system of the vehicle 3 may be any, and may be, for example, an electric vehicle driven by an on-board battery, a vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine, or a vehicle driven by human power.

[0146] In each of the above-mentioned embodiments, "determining whether it is A" may mean determining that it is A, determining that it is not A, or determining whether it is A or not.

[0147] Each program executed by each device of the information presentation system according to each of the above-described embodiments may be provided in an installable or executable format recorded on a computer-readable storage medium such as a CD-ROM, FD, CD-R, DVD, or SD card.

[0148] In addition, each program executed by each device of the information presentation system according to each embodiment described above may be configured to be stored on a computer connected to a network such as the Internet and provided by being downloaded via the network. In addition, each program executed by each device of the information presentation system according to each embodiment described above may be configured to be provided or distributed via a network such as the Internet.

[0149] Furthermore, each program executed by each device of the information presentation system according to each embodiment described above may be configured to be provided by being pre-installed in a ROM or the like.

[0150] In addition, the programs executed by each device of the information presentation system according to each of the above-mentioned embodiments have a modular structure including each functional unit possessed by each device, and in terms of actual hardware, a processor 51 such as a CPU reads out and executes the program from a memory 52 such as a ROM or HDD, thereby loading each of the functional units into the RAM of the memory 52, and generating each of the functional units in the RAM of the memory 52.

[0151] According to at least one of the embodiments described above, it is possible to present information suitable for the purpose of using the vehicle to the user. As an example, according to at least one of the embodiments described above, it is possible to appropriately vary the manner in which information related to route guidance is presented inside and outside a specific area with different transportation infrastructure.
