[0030] The configuration of the terminal device 20 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG.

[0031] The terminal device 20 includes a communication unit 21, a storage unit 22, an input unit 23, an output unit 24, and a control unit 25.

[0032] The communication unit 21 includes a communication module that connects to the network 40. For example, the communication unit 21 may include a communication module that supports mobile communication standards such as LTE (Long Term Evolution), 4G (4th Generation), and 5G (5th Generation).

[0036] The control unit 25 includes at least one processor, at least one dedicated circuit, or a combination thereof. The processor is a general-purpose processor such as a CPU or GPU, or a dedicated processor specialized for a specific process. The dedicated circuit is, for example, an FPGA or an ASIC. The control unit 25 controls each unit of the terminal device 20 and executes processes related to the operation of the terminal device 20.

[0037] (Operation of information processing system) The operation of the information processing system 1 shown in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3.

[0038] When the vehicle 30 before delivery purchased by the user is being transported, the control unit 15 of the information processing apparatus 10 acquires a traveling video that captures the scenery outside the vehicle when the vehicle 30 before delivery is being transported.

[0039] When the vehicle 30 is being self-driven and transported, the scenery outside the vehicle when the vehicle 30 before delivery is being transported may be a traveling video captured by a photographing device mounted on the vehicle 30. The photographing device mounted on the vehicle 30 may be, for example, a drive recorder.

[0040] The traveling video may be a moving image or a time-lapse video created using a plurality of sequentially captured still images.

[0041] When the vehicle 30 captures a traveling video while being transported, the vehicle 30 transmits the captured traveling video to the information processing apparatus 10. The vehicle 30 may also transmit identification information for identifying the vehicle 30, position information of the vehicle 30, and vehicle information of the vehicle 30 together with the traveling video. The vehicle information of the vehicle 30 may include, for example, information such as the traveling speed of the vehicle 30.

[0042] The control unit 15 of the information processing apparatus 10 acquires the traveling video transmitted by the vehicle 30 being transported via the communication unit 11. Further, the control unit 15 may acquire, via the communication unit 11, the identification information of the vehicle 30, the position information of the vehicle 30, and the vehicle information of the vehicle 30 transmitted by the vehicle 30 being transported.

[0043] The control unit 15 may determine whether the vehicle 30 is being self-driven and transported based on the vehicle information of the vehicle 30. For example, when the traveling speed of the vehicle 30 included in the vehicle information of the vehicle 30 is equal to or higher than a predetermined speed, the control unit 15 may determine that the vehicle 30 is being self-driven and transported.

[0044] When the control unit 15 acquires the identification information of the vehicle 30 being transported, it identifies the user who purchased the vehicle 30 and the terminal device 20 owned by the user. Data associating the identification information of the vehicle 30, the information of the user who purchased the vehicle 30, and the terminal device 20 owned by the user may be stored in the storage unit 12. When the control unit 15 acquires the identification information of the vehicle 30, it refers to the data stored in the storage unit 12 to identify the user who purchased the vehicle 30 and the terminal device 20 owned by the user.

[0045] When the control unit 15 identifies the user who purchased the vehicle 30 being transported, it transmits the driving video acquired from the vehicle 30 to the terminal device 20 of the user via the communication unit 11. When the vehicle 30 is being transported by self-driving, the driving video transmitted by the control unit 15 to the terminal device 20 is the driving video captured by the imaging device mounted on the vehicle 30.

[0046] The control unit 25 of the terminal device 20 acquires the driving video transmitted by the control unit 15 of the information processing device 10 via the communication unit 21.

[0047] The control unit 25 causes the output unit 24 to display the acquired driving video. As a result, the user who purchased the vehicle 30 can view the driving video that captures the scenery outside the vehicle when the vehicle 30 before delivery is being transported. Thereby, the information processing device 10 can enhance the user's sense of anticipation for the delivery of the purchased vehicle 30 while waiting for the delivery.

[0048] When the delivery schedule of the vehicle 30 is delayed, the control unit 15 of the information processing device 10 may transmit the driving video to the terminal device 20. Then, the user who purchased the vehicle 30 can wait in a state of enhanced anticipation for the delivery by watching the driving video of the scenery outside the vehicle when the vehicle 30 before delivery is being transported while the delivery schedule of the vehicle 30 is delayed.

[0049] Alternatively, when a request to transmit a driving video is received from the terminal device 20, the control unit 15 may transmit the driving video to the terminal device 20. In this way, a driving video of the scenery outside the vehicle while the vehicle 30 is being transported before delivery can be transmitted to the terminal device 20 at a timing when the user who has purchased the vehicle 30 wants to view the driving video.

[0050] Alternatively, the control unit 15 may periodically transmit the driving video to the terminal device 20. The control unit 15 may periodically transmit the driving video to the terminal device 20, for example, once every hour. In this way, a user who has purchased the vehicle 30 can periodically view driving video of the scenery outside the vehicle as the vehicle 30 is being transported before delivery.

[0051] A user who has purchased vehicle 30 may specify in advance areas through which the user would like vehicle 30 to pass when it is transported before delivery. For example, the user may specify the areas through which the user would like vehicle 30 to pass by operating input unit 23 of terminal device 20.

[0052] When the input unit 23 receives an input of the area through which the user is desired to pass, the control unit 25 transmits information about the area through which the user is desired to pass to the information processing device 10 via the communication unit 21.

[0053] The control unit 15 of the information processing device 10 acquires the information on the area that the terminal device 20 is desired to pass through, transmitted by the terminal device 20, via the communication unit 11. The control unit 15 stores the information on the area that the terminal device is desired to pass through in the storage unit 12.

[0054] When the control unit 15 determines that the driving video acquired from the vehicle 30 is driving video when the vehicle passed through an area designated in advance by the user, the control unit 15 transmits the driving video when the vehicle passed through the designated area to the terminal device 20 via the communication unit 11. Based on the position information of the vehicle 30 acquired from the vehicle 30, the control unit 15 may determine whether the driving video acquired from the vehicle 30 is driving video when the vehicle passed through an area designated in advance by the user.

[0055] As a result, the user who purchased the vehicle 30 can view the driving video when the transported vehicle 30 passes through a pre-specified area.

[0056] <Platoon driving> Fig. 4 shows a state in which the vehicle 30 purchased by the user is self-driving and platoon-driving together with other vehicles 30 and being transported. In Fig. 4, a state in which three vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 are platoon-driving is shown, but this is just an example. Any number of two or more vehicles 30 may be platoon-driving.

[0057] Hereinafter, it is assumed that the vehicle 30 purchased by the user is the vehicle 30-3 running at the end. Also, it is assumed that the vehicle 30-1 running at the front and the vehicle 30-2 running in the second place are other vehicles 30 that are platoon-driving and being transported together with the vehicle 30 purchased by the user.

[0058] The vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 each shoot a driving video when being transported. The vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 each transmit the shot driving video to the information processing device 10. The vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 may each shoot a driving video by a shooting device mounted on the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3. The shooting device mounted on the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 may be, for example, a drive recorder. Also, the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 transmit, together with the driving video, identification information for identifying the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3, position information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3, and vehicle information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3.

[0059] The control unit 15 of the information processing device 10 acquires the driving videos transmitted by the respective vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 via the communication unit 11. Also, the control unit 15 acquires, via the communication unit 11, the identification information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3, the position information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3, and the vehicle information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 transmitted by the respective vehicles 30-1 to 30-3.

[0060] If the control unit 15 determines based on the position information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 that the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3 are traveling in close proximity to each other, it may determine that the vehicle 30-3 purchased by the user is being transported in a convoy with the other vehicles 30-1 and 30-2.

[0061] When the vehicle 30-3 purchased by the user is being transported in a convoy traveling under its own power together with the other vehicles 30-1 and 30-2, the control unit 15 may transmit the driving video with the highest quality between the driving video captured by the camera mounted on the vehicle 30-3 purchased by the user and the driving video captured by the camera mounted on each of the other vehicles 30-1 and 30-2 to the terminal device 20 via the communication unit 11.

[0062] For example, the control unit 15 may transmit to the terminal device 20 the driving footage captured by the camera mounted on the vehicle 30-1 traveling at the front as the driving footage with the highest quality, out of the driving footage captured by the camera mounted on the vehicle 30-3 purchased by the user and the driving footage captured by the camera mounted on the other vehicles 30-1 and 30-2.

[0063] The control unit 15 may determine that the vehicle 30-1 is traveling in the lead based on the position information of the vehicles 30-1 to 30-3.

[0064] In this way, the control unit 15 transmits the highest quality driving footage to the terminal device 20, so that a user who has purchased the vehicle 30 can view the highest quality driving footage when the vehicle 30-3 before delivery is being transported in a convoy with the other vehicles 30-1 and 30-2.

[0065] <Driven on a car carrier> FIG. 5 shows a state in which a vehicle 30 purchased by a user is loaded onto a car carrier 50 and transported.

[0066] The vehicle 30 and the car carrier 50 each capture driving footage while the vehicle 30 is being transported. The vehicle 30 and the car carrier 50 each transmit the captured driving footage to the information processing device 10. The car carrier 50 may capture driving footage using a camera mounted on the car carrier 50. The camera mounted on the car carrier 50 may be, for example, a drive recorder. The vehicle 30 also transmits identification information for identifying the vehicle 30, location information of the vehicle 30, and vehicle information of the vehicle 30 along with the driving footage. The car carrier 50 also transmits identification information for identifying the car carrier 50, location information of the car carrier 50, and vehicle information of the car carrier 50 along with the driving footage.

[0067] The control unit 15 of the information processing device 10 acquires the driving images transmitted by the vehicle 30 and the car carrier 50 via the communication unit 11. The control unit 15 also acquires the identification information of the vehicle 30, the position information of the vehicle 30, and the vehicle information of the vehicle 30 transmitted by the vehicle 30 via the communication unit 11. The control unit 15 also acquires the identification information of the car carrier 50, the position information of the car carrier 50, and the vehicle information of the car carrier 50 transmitted by the car carrier 50 via the communication unit 11.

[0068] The control unit 15 may determine that the vehicle 30 is being loaded onto the car carrier 50 and transported based on the position information of the vehicle 30 and the car carrier 50 and the vehicle information of the vehicle 30. For example, when the position of the vehicle 30 and the position of the car carrier 50 are the same and the traveling speed of the vehicle 30 is zero, the control unit 15 may determine that the vehicle 30 is being loaded onto the car carrier 50 and transported.

[0069] When the vehicle 30 purchased by the user is being loaded onto a car carrier 50 and transported, the control unit 15 transmits driving footage captured by a camera mounted on the car carrier 50 to the terminal device 20 via the communication unit 11.

[0070] In this way, the control unit 15 transmits the driving footage captured by the camera mounted on the car carrier 50 to the terminal device 20, so that when the vehicle 30 is being transported on the car carrier 50 before delivery, the user who has purchased the vehicle 30 can view the driving footage captured by the camera mounted on the car carrier 50, which has a better view than the driving footage captured by the camera mounted on the vehicle 30.

[0071] The operation of the information processing device 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

[0072] Step S101: The control unit 15 of the information processing device 10 acquires a driving video of the scenery outside the vehicle 30 while the vehicle 30 is being transported before delivery.

[0073] Step S102: The control unit 15 acquires the identification information of the vehicle 30 from the vehicle 30 being transported.

[0074] Step S103: When the control unit 15 acquires the identification information of the vehicle 30 from the vehicle 30 being transported, it identifies the user who purchased the vehicle 30 and the terminal device 20 owned by the user.

[0075] Step S104: When the control unit 15 identifies the user who purchased the vehicle 30 being transported, it transmits to the user's terminal device 20 a driving video of the scenery outside the vehicle 30 as it is being transported before delivery.

[0076] As described above, in the information processing device 10 according to this embodiment, the control unit 15 acquires driving video of the scenery outside the vehicle 30 as it is being transported before delivery, and transmits the acquired driving video to the terminal device 20 of the user who purchased the vehicle 30. This allows the user who purchased the vehicle 30 to enjoy the scenery outside the vehicle 30 as it is being transported before delivery. Therefore, the information processing device 10 according to this embodiment can increase the user's sense of anticipation for the delivery of the vehicle while the user who purchased the vehicle is waiting for delivery.

[0077] The present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiments. For example, multiple blocks shown in the block diagrams may be integrated, or a single block may be divided. Instead of executing multiple steps shown in the flowcharts in chronological order as described, steps may be executed in parallel or in a different order depending on the processing capabilities of the device executing each step, or as needed. Other modifications are possible within the scope of the present disclosure.

[0078] For example, some of the processing operations executed in the information processing device 10 in the above-described embodiment may be executed in the terminal device 20. Furthermore, some of the processing operations executed in the terminal device 20 in the above-described embodiment may be executed in the information processing device 10.

[0079] For example, a general-purpose electronic device such as a smartphone or a computer can be configured to function as the information processing device 10 according to the above-described embodiment. Specifically, a program describing the processing content for realizing each function of the information processing device 10 according to the embodiment can be stored in the memory of the electronic device, and the program can be read and executed by a processor of the electronic device. Therefore, the disclosure according to an embodiment can also be realized as a program executable by a processor.
