Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a mobility support system. [Background technology]

[0002] A payload management system has been proposed that determines whether a user's luggage should be carried on the eVTOL (Electronic Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft) on which the user is aboard, or whether it should be sent separately by a vehicle other than the eVTOL on which the user is aboard (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In the above-mentioned payload management system, when the luggage cannot be transported by the eVTOL together with the user, the luggage is sent separately by a vehicle other than the eVTOL. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] US Patent Application Publication No. 2022 / 0067616 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In the above payload management system, whether or not to send the user's luggage separately is determined according to the gravity and size of the luggage. In this case, the user must bring the luggage, which will be used after arriving at the destination, onto the eVTOL as carry-on luggage, which is inconvenient in that the convenience of the user's actions involving travel by a moving body is reduced. The present invention has been made in view of the above background, and aims to provide a mobility support system that can improve the convenience of users' actions involving travel by mobile object. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] An example of an embodiment for achieving the above-mentioned objective is a mobility support system comprising: an action plan information acquisition unit that acquires action plan information indicating a user's action plan including movement by a first moving body; a first object information recognition unit that recognizes a first object to be used by the user after movement by the first moving body and a first target location and a first target time point at which the first object is scheduled to be used based on the action plan information; and a transportation service proposal unit that transmits first transportation service proposal information to a user terminal used by the user, the first transportation service proposal information proposing the use of a first transportation service to transport the first object from a first specified location to the first target point by a second moving body other than the first moving body by the first target time.

[0006] The above-mentioned mobility support system may be configured to include a first transportation service response unit that executes a first transportation service response process for implementing the first transportation service when first transportation service request information sent from the user terminal is received, the first transportation service requesting the use of the first transportation service.

[0007] In the above-mentioned mobility support system, the first object information recognition unit may be configured to exclude from the first object an object that is to be used after being moved to the first moving body, but that is scheduled to be used within a predetermined time from the end of the movement by the first moving body and that can be brought onto the first moving body and carried thereon.

[0008] In the above mobility support system, the first object information recognition unit may be configured to preferentially recognize an object that cannot be transported together with the user by the first moving body as the first object.

[0009] In the above-mentioned mobility support system, a second object information recognition unit is provided that recognizes, based on the action plan information, a second object that has been used by the user in accordance with the action plan and is not scheduled to be used again after its use in the action plan, and a second target location and a second target time at which the second object whose use has been completed can be received, and the transportation service proposal unit may be configured to transmit to the user terminal second transportation service proposal information that proposes the use of a second transportation service to receive the second object at the second target location after the second target time and transport the second object from the second target point to a second specified point by a third mobile body.

[0010] The above-mentioned mobility support system may be configured to include a second transportation service response unit that executes a second transportation service response process for implementing the second transportation service when second transportation service request information sent from the user terminal is received, the second transportation service requesting the use of the second transportation service.

[0011] In the above-mentioned mobility support system, the transportation service proposal unit may be configured to transmit to the user terminal the second transportation service proposal information proposing the use of the second transportation service to transport the second object to the second specified point after cleaning the second object that has been finished being used by the user. Effect of the Invention

[0012] According to the above-described mobility support system, it is possible to improve the convenience of the user's actions involving travel by a mobile object. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of the mobility support system. [Diagram 3] FIG. 3 is a first flowchart of the transportation service proposal process. [Figure 4] FIG. 4 is a second flowchart of the transportation service proposal process. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] [1. Mobility support] 1, a mode of support for the movement of a user U by a mobility support system 1 of this embodiment will be described. The mobility support system 1 supports the movement of the user U by communicating with a user terminal 50 used by the user U, a schedule server 210, and a transportation service server 220 via a communication network 200.

[0015] The travel support system 1, the schedule server 210, and the transportation service server 220 are computer systems equipped with a processor, a memory, a communication unit, etc. The user terminal 50 is a terminal having a communication function, such as a smartphone, a mobile phone, or a tablet terminal.

[0016] In the example shown in Fig. 1, a user U has the following two-day action plan (1) to (8) including travel by aircraft 100, 101. The aircraft 100, 101 are vertical take-off and landing type aircraft such as VTOL aircraft (Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft), and can accommodate, for example, about four users. The aircraft 100 corresponds to the first moving body of the present disclosure.

[0017] (1) As shown in speech bubble K1, the person leaves his / her home Pa at 10:00 on xx / yy / 2023 (the first day) and travels to the departure / arrival port Ha by vehicle 110 (taxi, etc.). (2) Aircraft 100 travels by flight FL1 from takeoff / landing port Ha to takeoff / landing port Hb. (3) In order to participate in the conference indicated in balloon K2 (13:00-15:00 on the first day), the passenger travels by vehicle 111 from the landing and takeoff port Hb to the conference center Pb where the conference is to be held. (4) Walk from the conference venue Pb to Hotel Pc and stay at Hotel Pc (check-in: 17:00, check-out: 9:00 on the second day).

[0018] (5) To play golf, travel by vehicle 112 from hotel Pc to golf course Pd and play golf (10:00-15:00). (6) To take the return flight FL2, travel by vehicle 113 (such as a taxi) from golf course Pd to port Hc. (7) Aircraft 101 travels from port Hc to port Ha on flight FL2. (8) The passenger travels from the arrival and departure port Ha to his / her home Pa by vehicle 114 (taxi, etc.) and returns home.

[0019] In the action plan, a conference to be held at a conference center Pb and a game of golf to be played at a golf course Pd are planned as events in which user U will participate. User U needs to carry a large bag 61 containing materials and equipment to be used at the conference to the conference center Pb, and also needs to carry a golf bag 62 containing golf equipment to the golf course Pd.

[0020] For user U to travel, including on flights FL1 and FL2, carrying large bag 61 and golf bag 62 in addition to small bag 60 containing personal belongings is an excessive burden for user U, and makes travel extremely inconvenient for user U. Therefore, travel support system 1 obtains action plan information indicating user U's action plan from schedule server 210 or user terminal 50, and recognizes objects used by user U in the action plan.

[0021] The travel support system 1 proposes to the user U to use the following first transportation services TR11, TR12, which transport the first objects (in the example of Figure 1, a large bag 61 and a golf bag 62) that are to be used after travel on flight FL1, separately from the user U's travel.

[0022] TR11...As shown in speech bubble B1, a large bag 61 is transported by a transport vehicle 120 (corresponding to the second mobile body in this disclosure) from user U's home Pa (corresponding to the first specified point in this disclosure) to the conference venue Pb by the first target time before 13:00, when the conference will be held. TR12...As shown in speech bubble B2, the golf bag 62 is transported from the user U's home Pa to the golf course Pd by the transport vehicle 121 (corresponding to the second moving body in this disclosure) by the start time of playing golf (10:00 on the second day).

[0023] The mobility support system 1 also recognizes a second object that is not scheduled in the action plan to be used again after being used by the user U. The mobility support system 1 then executes a process of proposing to the user U a second transportation service that receives the second object after use and delivers it to the user U's home Pa. In the example of Fig. 1, a large bag 60 containing materials and equipment used at a meeting, a golf bag 62 containing golf equipment used in a golf play, and a suit 63 worn by the user U at the meeting are recognized as second objects.

[0024] The mobility support system 1 proposes the following second transportation services TR21, TR22, and TR23 to the user U. TR21...As shown in speech bubble C1, a large bag 61 containing used conference materials and equipment is transported from the conference venue Pb to the user U's home Pa (corresponding to the second specified point in this disclosure) by a transport vehicle 130 (corresponding to the third mobile body in this disclosure). TR22...As shown in balloon C2, the golf bag 62 containing the used golf equipment is transported from the golf course Pd to the user U's home Pa by a transport vehicle 131 (corresponding to the third moving body in this disclosure). TR23: As shown in speech bubble C3, the suit 63 worn by the user U at the conference is transported by a transport vehicle 132 (corresponding to the third moving body in this disclosure) from the hotel Pc to the user U's home Pa. As an option, the user U can request that the suit 63 be cleaned at a dry cleaning shop Pe and delivered to the user U's home Pa. Similarly, the user U can request that the golf clubs and golf shoes stored in the golf bag 62 be cleaned and delivered to his / her home Pa.

[0025] By using the first transportation services TR11 and TR12 and the second transportation services TR21, TR22, and TR23, the user U can limit the luggage he or she carries in the action plan to the small bag 60, as shown in the balloons A1 to A7. This can improve the convenience of the user U's travel.

[0026] [2. Configuration of the mobility support system] The configuration of the mobility support system 1 will be described with reference to Fig. 2. The mobility support system 1 is a computer system including a processor 10, a memory 20, a communication unit 30, etc. The mobility support system 1 communicates with the user terminal 50, the schedule server 210, and the transportation service server 220 via the communication network 200 by the communication unit 30, as described above.

[0027] The memory 20 stores a program 21 for controlling the mobility support system 1, a user DB (database) 22 in which information on a user U who has applied to use a service provided by the mobility support system 1 is registered, and a transportation service DB 23 in which information on a carrier that provides the first transportation service and the second transportation service described above is registered. The user U requests the first transportation service and the second transportation service described above by accessing the mobility support system 1 using a mobility support app (application program) installed in the user terminal 50.

[0028] By reading and executing the program 21, the processor 10 functions as an action plan information acquisition unit 11, a first object information recognition unit 12, a second object information recognition unit 13, a transportation service proposal unit 14, a first transportation service response unit 15, and a second transportation service response unit 16.

[0029] The action plan information acquisition unit 11 accesses the schedule server 210 and acquires action plan information APi in which an action plan of the user U is recorded. The user U creates his / her own action plan using a schedule application installed in the user terminal 50, and information of the created action plan is uploaded to the schedule server 210 and stored in the schedule server 210. Alternatively, the action plan information acquisition unit 11 acquires the action plan information APi of the user U by receiving the action plan information APi transmitted from the user terminal 50.

[0030] The first object information recognition unit 12 recognizes an action plan of the user U including travel by aircraft (corresponding to the first moving body of the present disclosure) based on the action plan information APi of the user U. In the example of FIG. 1, a two-day action plan including travel by aircraft 100, 101 is recognized. Then, the first object information recognition unit 12 recognizes, in the action plan, a first object to be used after travel by aircraft 100, and the location and time of use of the first object. In the example of FIG. 1, the first object information recognition unit 12 recognizes a large bag 61 and a golf bag 62 as first objects, and recognizes the following information: Large bag 61...Use location: Conference room Pb, use time: 13:00 on the first day. Golf Bag 62...Location of use: Golf Course Pd, time of use: 10:00 on the second day.

[0031] Here, the following search conditions 1 and 2 may be set to perform recognition of the first object by the first object information recognition unit 12. Condition 1: From the viewpoint of the accommodation capacity and transportation capacity of the aircraft 100, an object that cannot be sent together with the user U by the aircraft 100 is preferentially recognized as a first object. Condition 2: Even if an object is to be used after the movement by the aircraft 100, if the object is scheduled to be used within a predetermined time from the end of the movement, the object is excluded from the first object.

[0032] The second object information recognition unit 13 recognizes second objects that are not scheduled to be used again after being used in the action plan of the user U, based on the action plan information APi of the user U. In the example of Fig. 1, the second object information recognition unit 13 recognizes a large bag 61, a golf bag 62, and a suit 63 as second objects, and recognizes the following information: Large bag 61...Pick-up point is Conference Hall Pb, pick-up time is from 15:00 on the first day. Golf Bag 62...Pick-up location is Golf Course Pd, pick-up time is from 15:00 on the second day. Suit 63...Pickup point is hotel PC, pick-up time is from 17:00 on the second day.

[0033] The transportation service proposal unit 14 transmits to the user terminal 50 first transportation service proposal information T1g, which proposes the use of a first transportation service for separately shipping the first object recognized by the first object information recognition unit 12. The transportation service proposal unit 14 also transmits to the user terminal 50 second transportation service proposal information T2g, which proposes the use of a second transportation service for separately shipping the second object recognized by the second object information recognition unit 13. In the example of FIG. 1, as described above, the first transportation service proposal information T1g, which proposes the use of the first transportation services TR11 and TR12, and the second transportation service proposal information T2g, which proposes the use of the second transportation services TR21, TR22, and TR23, are transmitted to the user terminal 50.

[0034] When the first transportation service response unit 15 receives the first transportation service request information T1r requesting the use of the first transportation service transmitted from the user terminal 50, the first transportation service response unit 15 executes a first transportation service response process for implementing the requested first transportation service. For example, when the first transportation service request information T1r requesting the use of the first transportation service TR11 is received, the first transportation service response unit 15 requests and arranges the transportation service company to receive the large bag 61 at the user U's home Pa before the time when the user U leaves the home Pa (10:00 on xx / yy / 2023) and transport it to the conference venue Pb by the time when the conference starts (13:00 on the same day). Specifically, the first transportation service response unit 15 refers to the transportation service DB 23, extracts a transportation service company that can handle the first transportation service TR11, and accesses the transportation service server 220 operated by the extracted transportation service company to execute a process of requesting transportation arrangements.

[0035] When the second transportation service response unit 16 receives second transportation service request information T2r requesting the use of the second transportation service transmitted from the user terminal 50, the second transportation service response unit 16 executes a second transportation service response process for implementing the requested second transportation service. For example, when the second transportation service request information T2r requesting the use of the second transportation service TR23 is received, the second transportation service response unit 16 requests a transport company to receive the suit 63 at the hotel Pc (second target point) at a second target time after the time when the user U checks in to the hotel Pc (17:00 on the second day) and transport it to the user U's home Pa. Specifically, the second transportation service response unit 16 refers to the transportation service DB 23, extracts a transport company that can handle the second transportation service TR23, and accesses the transportation service server 220 operated by the extracted transport company to execute a process of requesting transportation arrangements.

[0036] [3. Transportation service proposal processing] The procedure of the transportation service proposal process executed by the travel support system 1 in the situation described above with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described according to the flowcharts shown in FIGS.

[0037] 3, the action plan information acquisition unit 11 acquires action plan information APi indicating an action plan of the user U by accessing the schedule server 210 or by communicating with the user terminal 50. In the following step S2, the first object information recognition unit 12 searches for a first object that is scheduled to be used after the movement by airplane from the action plan information APi.

[0038] In the next step S3, the first object information recognition unit 12 advances the process to step S20 if the first object is extracted, and advances the process to step S4 if the first object is not extracted. In the example of Fig. 1, a large bag 61 and a golf bag 62 are extracted as the first objects. In step S20, the transportation service proposal unit 14 recognizes a first location and a first time point where the first object is scheduled to be used from the action plan.

[0039] In the next step S21, the transportation service proposal unit 14 transmits the first transportation service proposal information T1g proposing separate delivery of the first object to the user terminal 50, and proceeds to step S4. In the example of FIG. 1, the transportation service proposal unit 14 transmits the first transportation service proposal information T1g proposing use of the first transportation services TR11 and TR12 to the user terminal 50.

[0040] In step S4, the second object information recognition unit 13 searches for a second object that is not scheduled to be used again in the action plan after being used by the user U, from the action plan information APi. In the following step S5, the second object information recognition unit 13 proceeds to step S30 if a second object is extracted, and proceeds to step S6 in Fig. 4 if a second object is not extracted.

[0041] In the example of FIG. 1, a large bag 61, a golf bag 62, and a suit 63 are extracted as the second object. In step S30, the transportation service proposal unit 14 recognizes a second object location and a second time point at which the second object can be received from the action plan. In the next step S31, the transportation service proposal unit 14 transmits second transportation service proposal information T2g proposing separate delivery of the second object to the user terminal 50, and proceeds to step S6 of FIG. 4. In the example of FIG. 1, the transportation service proposal unit 14 transmits second transportation service proposal information T2g proposing the use of the second transportation services TR21, TR22, and TR23 to the user terminal 50.

[0042] 4, the transportation service proposal unit 14 determines whether the action of the user U corresponding to the action plan has been completed based on the location information of the user terminal 50 and the like transmitted from the user terminal 50. Then, the transportation service proposal unit 14 advances the process to step S7 when the action of the user U corresponding to the action plan has been completed, and advances the process to step S40 when the action of the user U corresponding to the action plan has not been completed.

[0043] In step S40, the first transportation service response unit 15 advances the process to step S41 when it receives first transportation service request information T1r requesting the use of the first transportation service from the user terminal 50, and advances the process to step S50 when it does not receive the first transportation service request information T1r. In step S41, the first transportation service response unit 15 accesses the transportation service server 220 to arrange for the implementation of the first transportation service as described above, and advances the process to step S6.

[0044] In step S50, the second transportation service response unit 16 advances the process to step S51 when it receives second transportation service request information T2r requesting the use of the second transportation service from the user terminal 50, and advances the process to step S6 when it does not receive the second transportation service request information T2r. In step S51, the second transportation service response unit 16 accesses the transportation service server 220 to arrange for the implementation of the second transportation service as described above, and advances the process to step S6.

[0045] [4. Other embodiments] In the above embodiment, aircraft 100, 101 are exemplified as the first moving body of the present disclosure, but the first moving body of the present disclosure may be other types of moving bodies such as a train, a ship, a vehicle, etc. Also, vehicles 120, 121 are exemplified as the second moving body of the present disclosure, and vehicles 130, 131, 132 are exemplified as the third moving body of the present disclosure, but the first moving body and the second moving body of the present disclosure may be other types of moving bodies other than vehicles.

[0046] In the above embodiment, a first transportation service response unit 15 was provided to arrange for the implementation of the first transportation service, but the first transportation service response unit 15 may be omitted and the transportation service proposal unit 14 may be configured to propose the use of the first transportation service.

[0047] In the above embodiment, the second object information recognition unit 13 was provided and the transportation service proposal unit 14 proposed the use of the second transportation service for the second object that is not scheduled to be used again, but the second object information recognition unit 13 may be omitted and the configuration may be such that the second transportation service is not proposed.

[0048] In the above embodiment, a second transportation service response unit 16 was provided to arrange for the implementation of the second transportation service, but the second transportation service response unit 16 may be omitted and the transportation service proposal unit 14 may be configured to propose the use of the second transportation service.

[0049] 2 is a schematic diagram showing the functional configuration of the mobility support system 1 divided according to the main processing contents in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention, and the configuration of the mobility support system 1 may be divided in other ways. Furthermore, the processing of each component may be executed by one hardware unit or by multiple hardware units. Furthermore, the processing of each component shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 may be executed by one program or by multiple programs.

[0050] [5. Configuration supported by the above embodiment] The above embodiment is a specific example of the following configuration.

[0051] (Configuration 1) A mobility support system comprising: an action plan information acquisition unit that acquires action plan information indicating a user's action plan including movement by a first moving body; a first object information recognition unit that recognizes a first object to be used by the user after movement by the first moving body and a first target location and a first target time point at which the first object is scheduled to be used based on the action plan information; and a transportation service proposal unit that transmits first transportation service proposal information to a user terminal used by the user, the first transportation service proposal information proposing the use of a first transportation service to transport the first object from a first specified location to the first target point by a second moving body other than the first moving body by the first target time point. According to the mobility support system of configuration 1, a first transportation service is proposed to a user, in which a first object to be used by the user after the user moves by the first mobile object is transported by a second mobile object. By using the first transportation service, the first user can move by the first mobile object without carrying the first object, thereby improving the convenience of the user's actions involving movement by a mobile object. In addition, the "first object used by the user after travel by the first moving body" in configuration 1 also includes an object used by the user at a location to which the user travels by another moving body after travelling by the first moving body. For example, in Fig. 1, after the user U disembarks from the aircraft 100 (first moving body) at the take-off and landing port Hb, the user travels by vehicle 111 to the conference venue Pb, and the large bag 61 used by the user U at the conference venue Pb corresponds to the first object.

[0052] (Configuration 2) A mobility support system as described in Configuration 1, comprising a first transportation service response unit that executes a first transportation service response process for implementing the first transportation service when first transportation service request information sent from the user terminal is received, the first transportation service requesting the use of the first transportation service. According to the mobility support system of configuration 2, the first transportation service can be quickly arranged in response to a request for the first transportation service from a user.

[0053] (Configuration 3) A mobility support system as described in Configuration 1 or Configuration 2, in which the first object information recognition unit excludes from the first object an object that is to be used after being moved to the first moving body, but that is scheduled to be used within a predetermined time from the end of the movement by the first moving body, and that can be brought into and carried by the first moving body. According to the mobility support system of configuration 3, it is possible to avoid suggesting the use of the first transportation service, which is assumed to be unlikely to be used, for an object that will be used immediately after movement by the first mobile body.

[0054] (Configuration 4) A mobility support system described in any one of configurations 1 to 3, wherein the first object information recognition unit preferentially recognizes an object that cannot be sent together with the user by the first moving body as the first object. According to the mobility support system of configuration 4, by providing the first transportation service information to the user preferentially for objects that cannot be transported together with the user by the first mobile body, it is possible to facilitate the user's arrangements for transportation of objects that need to be sent separately.

[0055] (Configuration 5) A mobility support system as described in any one of configurations from configuration 5 to configuration 5, comprising a second object information recognition unit that recognizes, based on the action plan information, a second object that has been used by the user's action corresponding to the action plan and is not scheduled to be used again after said use in the action plan, and a second target location and a second target time at which the second object whose use has ended can be received, and the transportation service proposal unit transmits to the user terminal second transportation service proposal information that proposes the use of a second transportation service to receive the second object at the second target location after the second target time and transport the second object from the second target point to a second specified point by a third mobile body. According to the mobility support system of configuration 5, information on a second transportation service for transporting a second object that has been completed in a behavior plan by a third mobile body is provided to a user. By using the second transportation service, the user can easily move the second object that has been completed in a behavior plan by separately shipping it.

[0056] (Configuration 6) A mobility support system as described in Configuration 5, comprising a second transportation service response unit that executes a second transportation service response process for implementing the second transportation service when second transportation service request information sent from the user terminal is received, the second transportation service requesting the use of the second transportation service. According to the mobility support system of configuration 6, the second transportation service can be quickly arranged in response to a request for the second transportation service from a user.

[0057] (Configuration 7) A mobility support system as described in Configuration 5 or Configuration 6, wherein the transportation service proposal unit transmits to the user terminal the second transportation service proposal information proposing the use of the second transportation service to transport the second object to the second specified point after cleaning the second object that has been finished being used by the user. According to the mobility support system of configuration 7, the user can receive the second object that has already been cleaned, and therefore does not need to clean the second object after the action plan is completed. This improves the convenience of the user. [Explanation of symbols]
