[0027] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the following embodiment. In each of the drawings, the same parts are given the same reference numerals. In addition, the explanations of each embodiment can be mutually incorporated unless otherwise specified, and the configurations of each embodiment can be combined unless otherwise specified.

[0028] [Embodiment 1] Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of a delivery receipt management device 10 of this embodiment. As shown in Fig. 1, the device 10 includes a communication unit 11, a user information management unit 12, a locking / unlocking management unit 13, and an unlocking code issuing unit 14. The device 10 may further include a video storage unit 15, a memory unit 16, etc. as an optional configuration. The locking / unlocking management unit 13 includes an acquisition unit 131, a collation unit 132, and a locking / unlocking instruction unit 133. The locking / unlocking management unit 13 may further include a video analysis unit 134, a usage information management unit 135, etc. as an optional configuration.

[0029] The device 10 may be, for example, a single device including each of the above-mentioned units, or a device to which each of the above-mentioned units can be connected via a communication line network. The device 10 may be connected to an external device described later via the communication line network. The communication line network is not particularly limited, and a known network may be used, for example, wired or wireless. Examples of the communication line network include an Internet line, a World Wide Web (WWW), a telephone line, a Local Area Network (LAN), a Storage Area Network (SAN), a Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN), a Low Power Wide Area (LPWA), and a Local 5G (L5G). Examples of wireless communication include Wi-Fi (registered trademark), Bluetooth (registered trademark), a Local 5G, and a LPWA. Examples of the wireless communication may include a form in which each device directly communicates with each other (Ad Hoc communication), an infrastructure (infrastructure communication), and an indirect communication via an access point. The device 10 may be incorporated into a server as a system, for example. The device 10 may be, for example, a personal computer (PC, for example, desktop type or notebook type) on which the program of the present invention is installed, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, etc. Furthermore, the device 10 may be in the form of cloud computing or edge computing, for example, in which at least one of the units is on a server and the other units are on a terminal.

[0030] 2 illustrates a block diagram of the hardware configuration of the device 10. The device 10 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU, GPU, etc.) 101, a memory 102, a bus 103, a storage device 104, an input device 105, a display device 106, and a communication device 107. The components of the device 10 are connected to each other via the bus 103 and their respective interfaces (I / F).

[0031] The central processing unit 101 is responsible for the overall control of the device 10. In the device 10, the central processing unit 101 executes, for example, the program of the present invention and other programs, and also reads and writes various information. Specifically, for example, the central processing unit 101 functions as a user information management unit 12, a lock / unlock management unit 13, and an unlocking code issuing unit 14.

[0032] The bus 103 can also be connected to, for example, an external device. Examples of the external device include an external storage device (external database, etc.), a printer, an external input device, an external display device, and an external imaging device. The present device 10 can be connected to an external network (the above-mentioned communication line network) by, for example, a communication device 107 connected to the bus 103, and can also be connected to other devices via the external network. The communication device 107 may function as, for example, the communication unit 11.

[0033] An example of the memory 102 is a main memory (primary storage device). When the central processing unit 101 performs processing, the memory 102 reads various operation programs, such as the program of the present invention, stored in the storage device 104 described below, and the central processing unit 101 receives data from the memory 102 and executes the program. The main memory is, for example, a RAM (random access memory). The memory 102 may also be, for example, a ROM (read only memory).

[0034] The storage device 104 is also called an auxiliary storage device, for example, in contrast to the main memory (primary storage device). As described above, the storage device 104 stores an operation program including the program of the present invention. The storage device 104 may be, for example, a combination of a recording medium and a drive for reading and writing from and to the recording medium. The recording medium is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, an internal or external type, such as a hard disk (HD), CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, MO, DVD, flash memory, or memory card. The storage device 104 may be, for example, a hard disk drive (HDD) in which a recording medium and a drive are integrated, or a solid state drive (SSD).

[0035] In the present device 10, the memory 102 and the storage device 104 can store various information such as log information, information acquired from an external database (not shown) or an external device, information generated by the present device 10, and information used when the present device 10 executes processing. At least a part of the information may be stored, for example, in an external server other than the memory 102 and the storage device 104, or may be stored in a distributed manner in multiple terminals using blockchain technology or the like. The memory 102 and the storage device 104 may also function, for example, as a video storage unit 15 and a storage unit 16.

[0036] The device 10 may further include, for example, an input device 105 and a display device 106. The input device 105 is, for example, a touch panel, a keyboard, a mouse, etc. The display device 106 is, for example, an LED display, a liquid crystal display, etc.

[0037] Next, an example of the delivery receipt management method of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of Fig. 3. The delivery receipt management method of this embodiment is implemented, for example, as follows, using the delivery receipt management device 10 of Fig. 1. Note that the delivery receipt management method of this embodiment is not limited to use of the delivery receipt management device 10 of Fig. 1. Also, the steps in parentheses in Fig. 3 are optional steps.

[0038] In FIG. 3, the steps enclosed by dashed lines are steps within the locking / unlocking management process.

[0039] First, the communication unit 11 starts communication with an external delivery request management device that manages delivery request information, a drive recorder that can lock and unlock doors, and a requester terminal (S11, communication step). The delivery request management device is not particularly limited as long as it is a device that manages delivery request information, and is, for example, a server of a delivery company. The delivery request information is information related to a delivery request. The device 10 communicates with a delivery person terminal described later via the delivery request management device. The drive recorder is not particularly limited as long as it can lock and unlock doors. The drive recorder is attached to a car and can capture images in 360 degrees of the car, for example. The car is, for example, owned by a requester (also called a recipient) and his / her related parties (family, etc.). The requester terminal is a terminal of a person requesting delivery (also called a user), and examples include a PC, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, etc.

[0040] Next, the user information management unit 12 acquires user information including user identification information and vehicle information from the client terminal, and registers and manages the user information in a user information list (S12, user information management step). The user information list may be stored, for example, in the memory unit 16, or in an external storage device or external database. The user identification information may be, for example, the user's ID (identifier), name, address, or a combination of these. The vehicle information is information about the vehicle, and includes the vehicle's license plate information (information written on the license plate). In addition to the license plate information, the vehicle information may also include, for example, the vehicle model, the vehicle's color, and the vehicle's parking position information.

[0041] Next, the acquisition unit 131 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13 acquires delivery execution information via the delivery request management device (S131a, acquisition step). The delivery execution information is information transmitted to the delivery request management device by a deliveryman terminal that has acquired the delivery request information, and includes an image in which the license plate information of the vehicle is reflected. In addition to the license plate information, the delivery execution information may also include, for example, location information of the deliveryman terminal, image capture location information of the image, image capture date and time information of the image, and transmission time information of the delivery execution information. In addition to the license plate information, the image may also include, for example, the vehicle model, the color of the vehicle, and the like. The deliveryman terminal is a terminal of a deliverer who delivers the delivery item, and examples of the terminal include a PC, a smartphone, and a tablet terminal. By including information other than the license plate information in the delivery execution information, for example, the accuracy of the collation unit 132 described below can be improved, and fraudulent acts such as reusing images can be prevented.

[0042] Next, the collation unit 132 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13 collates the user information with the delivery execution information (S132a, collation step). At least, in the step (S132a), the collation unit 132 may collate the license plate information included in the user information with the license plate information included in the delivery execution information. The collation unit 132 may, for example, convert the license plate information in the image included in the delivery execution information into character data using a known optical character recognition technique to perform the collation. The collation unit 132 may further, for example, collate the vehicle type and color of the vehicle included in the user information and the delivery execution information, respectively, or may collate location information. The collation of location information is specifically a collation of parking location information of the vehicle in the user information with location information of the delivery person terminal and image capture location information of the image in the delivery execution information. In this way, by performing the collation using information other than license plate information, the accuracy of the collation can be improved and fraudulent acts can be prevented.

[0043] Next, when the license plate information of the vehicle information and the license plate information in the image match, the unlocking code issuing unit 14 generates an unlocking code for unlocking the door lock of the vehicle, and issues the unlocking code to the deliveryman terminal via the delivery request management device (S14a, unlocking code issuing step). On the other hand, when the license plate information of the vehicle information and the license plate information in the image do not match, the unlocking code issuing unit 14 may, for example, not generate the unlocking code and end (END). Examples of the unlocking code include one-dimensional codes such as barcodes and two-dimensional codes such as QR Code (registered trademark). The unlocking code issuing unit 14 generates the unlocking code by combining, for example, the user information (including the vehicle information and the user's identification information), time information indicating the time when the process of the step (S14a) was started, connection information for connecting to the device 10, and the like.

[0044] Next, the acquisition unit 131 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13 acquires the unlocking code recognized by the drive recorder through access from the drive recorder of the automobile (S131b, acquisition step). The acquisition unit 131 may acquire the unlocking code for each video captured by the drive recorder, for example. The unlocking code is the unlocking code displayed on the display of the delivery person terminal that the delivery person presents to the drive recorder.

[0045] Next, when the unlocking code is acquired by the locking / unlocking instruction unit 133 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13, an instruction to unlock the doors is issued to the drive recorder (S133a, locking / unlocking instruction step).

[0046] Next, the acquisition unit 131 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13 acquires delivery completion information from the deliveryman terminal via the delivery request management device (S131c, acquisition step). The delivery completion information is information indicating the completion of delivery, specifically, that the delivery item has been placed in the vehicle.

[0047] Next, for example, when the delivery completion information is acquired by the unlocking code issuing unit 14, the generated unlocking code may be invalidated (S14b, unlocking code issuing step). This makes it possible to prevent, for example, a delivery person from illegally unlocking a car door lock by using an unlocking code that was previously used. Also, even if the unlocking code is leaked to the outside, it is possible to prevent a third party from illegally using the unlocking code.

[0048] Then, when the lock / unlock instruction unit 133 of the lock / unlock management unit 13 acquires the delivery completion information, it instructs the drive recorder to lock the doors (S133b, lock / unlock instruction step), and ends the process (END).

[0049] As described above, the locking / unlocking management unit 13 may include, for example, a usage information management unit 135. For example, after the step (S12) and before the step (S131a), when the delivery request management device links the automobile information and the delivery request information, the usage information management unit 135 may link the automobile information with the corresponding user information, generate usage information regarding delivery with the automobile as the delivery destination, and register and manage the usage information in a usage information list (S135, usage information management step). The usage information list may be stored, for example, in the storage unit 16, or may be stored in an external storage device, an external database, or the like. The usage information list will be described in detail later. The usage information management unit 135 may generate usage information for each delivery company for one piece of user information, for example. Also, although not shown, the usage information management unit 135 may update the locking / unlocking information of the usage information, for example, when the door lock of the vehicle is unlocked after the step (S133a), and when the door lock of the vehicle is locked after the step (S133b).

[0050] If the usage information management unit 135 manages the usage information list, for example, in the step (S132a), the collation unit 132 may further check whether the usage information linked to the user information is registered in the usage information list. Then, in the step (S14a), the unlocking code issuing unit 14 may generate and issue the unlocking code, for example, if the license plate information of the automobile information matches the license plate information in the image and the usage information linked to the user information is registered in the usage information list. This makes it possible to prevent, for example, erroneous delivery of a delivery.

[0051] After the step (S131b), for example, as shown in FIG. 3, the collating unit 132 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13 may collate information included in the generated unlocking code with information included in the acquired unlocking code (S132b, collating step). Then, in the step (S133a), the locking / unlocking instruction unit 133 of the locking / unlocking management unit 13 may instruct the drive recorder to unlock the doors if the generated unlocking code matches the acquired unlocking code. That is, the device 10 may perform the collation in two steps, that is, the collation of the license plate information in the step (S132a) and the collation of the unlocking code in the step (S132b), by the collation unit 132. This improves, for example, security performance.

[0052] As described above, the device 10 may include, for example, a video storage unit 15. The video storage unit 15 stores the video acquired by the acquisition unit 131. Specifically, the acquisition unit 131 may acquire the video continuously captured by the drive recorder while the door is unlocked (S131d, acquisition step). The acquisition unit 131 may acquire the video captured by the drive recorder in real time, for example, or may acquire the video after the drive recorder has finished capturing the video. That is, the step (S131d) may be executed after the step (S133a) as shown in FIG. 3, and may be processed in parallel with other steps, or may be executed after the step (S133b). Then, the device 10 may end (END) after storing the video in the video storage unit 15 and executing at least the step (S133b). Furthermore, the video storage unit 15 may store, for example, a video including the unlocking code acquired by the acquisition unit 131 in the step (S131b). By storing the video in this manner, the video can be played back or analyzed later, which serves as a crime prevention measure.

[0053] As described above, the locking / unlocking management unit 13 may include, for example, the video analysis unit 134. The video analysis unit 134 analyzes the video acquired by the acquisition unit 131 to confirm whether the door of the vehicle is closed (S134, video analysis step). The step (S134) may be executed, for example, when the delivery completion information cannot be acquired by the acquisition unit 131 in the step (S131c), but is not limited thereto. Then, when it is confirmed that the door of the vehicle is closed by the analysis in the step (S133b), the locking / unlocking instruction unit 133 may instruct the drive recorder to lock the door. The locking / unlocking instruction unit 133 may instruct the drive recorder to lock the door after a certain period of time has elapsed, for example. The certain period of time is not particularly limited and can be set arbitrarily.

[0054] According to this embodiment, by instructing the door lock, the delivery person can place the delivery in the vehicle, and the sender can receive the delivery without meeting the sender. This allows, for example, the delivery company to reduce the costs (labor costs, fuel costs, etc.) involved in redelivering the delivery, while the sender can go about his or her daily life without being restricted by the time the delivery arrives. In addition, the sender can receive the delivery even if the recipient (for example, the sender himself or herself or his or her family) is absent. Furthermore, according to this embodiment, the delivery can be received without meeting the sender, which is effective, for example, in preventing infectious diseases.

[0055] As an example of a device that enables delivery of a package without meeting the recipient, a delivery box is known. However, delivery boxes are expensive and have a certain size, and therefore have problems such as high purchase costs and limited installation space. For the same reasons, there is also the problem that delivery boxes have not yet become widespread.

[0056] One method for allowing delivery items to be received without meeting the recipient and without using a delivery box or the like is to have the delivery person leave the package at the front door, but this method is less secure as the delivered items are more susceptible to theft.

[0057] However, according to the present embodiment, simply installing a drive recorder, which is cheaper than a delivery box, in an automobile, which is more popular than a delivery box, enables non-face-to-face receipt, thereby reducing costs. Also, according to the present embodiment, unlike a delivery box, there is no need to secure additional space for deliveries. Also, according to the present embodiment, the door lock can be unlocked and locked automatically, eliminating the need for operations such as inputting a PIN number using a button or the like, thereby reducing the delivery person's workload. Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, after the delivery person places the delivery item in the automobile, the door lock is locked by the drive recorder, providing high security.

[0058] [Embodiment 2] A delivery system device using the delivery receipt management device of the first embodiment will be described.

[0059] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the delivery system device 100 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 4, the present system device 100 includes the delivery receipt management device 10 described in the first embodiment, a delivery request management device 20, and a drive recorder 30 attached to a vehicle.

In addition, the present system device 100 may further include, for example, a requester terminal 40 and a delivery person terminal 50.

[0060] The delivery request management device 20 may be, for example, a single device including each of the units, or a device to which each of the units can be connected via the communication line network. The delivery request management device 20 can be connected to the external device via the communication line network. The delivery request management device 20 may be, for example, incorporated in a server as a system. The delivery request management device 20 may be, for example, a personal computer (PC, for example, desktop type, notebook type) in which the program of the present invention is installed, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, or the like. Furthermore, the delivery request management device 20 may be, for example, in the form of cloud computing or edge computing in which at least one of the units is on a server and the other units are on a terminal. Specifically, the delivery request management device 20 is, for example, a server of a delivery company.

[0061] For example, unless otherwise specified, the hardware configuration of the delivery request management device 20 is similar to the hardware configuration of the delivery receipt management device 10 shown in Fig. 2. In the delivery request management device 20, the central processing unit 101 functions, for example, as a delivery request information management unit 22, an acquisition unit 23, and a transmission unit 24. The communication device 107 may function, for example, as the communication unit 21. The memory 102 and the storage device 104 may function, for example, as the storage unit 25.

[0062] The drive recorder 30 may be, for example, a single device including each of the above-mentioned units, or a device to which each of the above-mentioned units can be connected via the communication line network. The drive recorder 30 may also be connectable to the external device via the communication line network. The drive recorder 30 may also be, for example, a drive recorder in which the program of the present invention is installed.

[0063] The hardware configuration of the drive recorder 30 is, for example, similar to the hardware configuration of the delivery receipt management device 10 shown in FIG. 2 unless otherwise specified. In the drive recorder 30, the central processing unit 101 functions, for example, as a door lock control unit 33. The communication device 107 may function, for example, as a communication unit 31. The hardware configuration of the drive recorder 30 further includes, for example, an imaging device. The imaging device is, for example, a camera, and functions as the imaging unit 32. The imaging device may be, for example, a device capable of capturing images in a 360-degree direction.

[0064] Next, an example of the delivery method of this embodiment will be described based on the flowchart of Fig. 5. The delivery method of this embodiment is carried out as follows, for example, using the delivery device 100 of Fig. 4. Note that the delivery method of this embodiment is not limited to the use of the delivery device 100 of Fig. 4.

[0065] In the flowchart shown in Fig. 5, unless otherwise specified, the explanation of Fig. 3 can be applied to the steps denoted by the same reference numerals as in Fig. 3. Note that, although optional steps shown in Fig. 3 are omitted in Fig. 5, the optional steps may be executed in the delivery method of this embodiment as well, as described above.

[0066] In the step (S11), the delivery receipt management device 10 starts communication with the delivery request management device 20, the drive recorder 30, and the requester terminal 40 through the communication unit 11. In addition, the delivery request management device 20 starts communication with the delivery receipt management device 10, the requester terminal 40, and the delivery person terminal 50 through the communication unit 21 (S21, communication step).

[0067] After the step (S12), the delivery request management device 20 acquires delivery request information including the user's identification information and the designated delivery destination information from the requester terminal 40 by the delivery request information management unit 22, and registers and manages the delivery request information in a delivery request information list (S22, delivery request information management step). The delivery request information is information regarding a delivery request. The delivery request information list may be stored in the storage unit 25, for example, or in an external storage device or an external database. The user's identification information is, for example, the user's ID (identifier), name, address, or a combination of these. In addition, the user's identification information may be, for example, the same as the user's identification information in the user information, or may not be the same as the user's identification information in the user information as long as it is linked to the user's identification information in the user information. The designated delivery destination information is information regarding a delivery destination designated by a requester having the requester terminal 40. The delivery destination includes not only a specified address, but also a specified location for leaving the delivery (for example, a parcel box, a front door, a car, etc.).

[0068] Also, in the step (S22), when a car is specified as the delivery destination of the specified delivery destination information, the delivery request information management unit 22 queries the user information list in the delivery receipt management device 10 and adds the car information to the specified delivery destination information based on the identification information of each of the users. Specifically, for example, when the delivery request information and the user information share the same identification information of the user, the car information corresponding to the same identification information of the user in the delivery request information and the user information may be added to the specified delivery destination information. Also, for example, when the delivery request information and the user information are linked to the identification information of the user, the car information corresponding to the identification information of the user linked to the delivery request information and the user information may be added to the specified delivery destination information.

[0069] Following the step (S22), the delivery request management device 20 transmits the delivery request information to the delivery person terminal 50 via the transmission unit 24 (S24a, transmission step). Although not shown, the delivery person terminal 50 then acquires the delivery request information, for example. The delivery person then executes the delivery based on the delivery request information. When the delivery person arrives at the delivery destination written in the delivery request information, the delivery person transmits the delivery execution information to the delivery request management device 20 via the delivery person terminal 50.

[0070] After the step (S24a), the delivery request management device 20 acquires the delivery execution information from the delivery person terminal 50 by the acquisition unit 23 (S23a, acquisition step), and transmits the delivery execution information to the delivery receipt management device 10 by the transmission unit 24 (S24b, transmission step). In this way, the delivery receipt management device 10 and the delivery person terminal 50 indirectly transmit and receive information via the delivery request management device 20.

[0071] After the step (S14a), the delivery request management device 20 acquires the unlocking code from the delivery receipt management device 10 by the acquisition unit 23 (S23b, acquisition step), and transmits the unlocking code to the delivery person terminal 50 by the transmission unit 24 (S24c, transmission step). Although not shown, thereafter, the delivery person terminal 50 displays the unlocking code on a display, for example, and the delivery person holds the unlocking code over the drive recorder 30.

[0072] When the unlocking code is held up to the drive recorder 30, the drive recorder 30 captures video using the imaging unit 32 and recognizes the unlocking code displayed on the display of the delivery person terminal (S32, imaging step).Then, the drive recorder 30 accesses the delivery receipt management device 10 using the communication unit 31 based on the unlocking code and starts communication with the delivery receipt management device 10 (S31, communication step).

[0073] After the step (S133a), the drive recorder 30 executes unlocking of the door lock by the door lock control unit 33 in accordance with an instruction from the delivery receipt management device 10 (S33a, door lock control step). Although not shown, the delivery person then places the delivery in the vehicle and transmits the delivery completion information to the delivery request management device 20 by the delivery person terminal 50. The delivery request management device 20 acquires the delivery completion information from the delivery person terminal 50 by the acquisition unit 23 (S23c, acquisition step), and transmits the delivery completion information to the delivery receipt management device 10 by the transmission unit 24 (S24d, transmission step).

[0074] After the above step (S133b), the drive recorder 30 causes the door lock control unit 33 to lock the doors in accordance with an instruction from the delivery receipt management device 10 (S33b, door lock control step), and then ends (END).

[0075] The drive recorder 30 may be capable of controlling the vehicle's engine not to start while the vehicle's door is unlocked by the door lock control unit 33. Also, the imaging unit 32 may continuously capture video while the vehicle's door is unlocked, and may transmit the video to the delivery receipt management device 10.

[0076] The step (S21), the step (S22), the step (S24a), the step (S23a), the step (S24b), the step (S23b), the step (S24c), the step (S23c), and the step (S24d) are also referred to as, for example, a delivery request management method.

[0077] The step (S31), the step (S32), the step (S33a), and the step (S33b) are also referred to as, for example, a door lock control method for a drive recorder.

[0078] According to this embodiment, similarly to the first embodiment, the delivery person can place the delivery item inside the vehicle by instructing the door to be locked, so that the sender can receive the delivery item without meeting the sender.

[0079] [Embodiment 3] 6 shows an example of the processing of the delivery system device 100. A series of steps from a delivery request until the delivery person delivers the delivery to the car and the car door is locked is performed, for example, in the order of (1) to (11) below. Note that (1) to (11) below correspond to (1) to (11) in the figure. (1) The requester uses the requester terminal 40 to register user information in the delivery receipt management device 10 in advance. (2) When placing an order for online shopping or the like, the requester designates automobile 1 as the delivery destination using the requester terminal 40. Delivery request information including the designation of automobile 1 as the delivery destination is registered in the delivery request information list by the delivery request management device 20, and the usage information is registered in the usage information list by the delivery receipt management device 10 via the delivery request management device 20. (3) After the user information is registered in the user information list by the delivery receipt management device 10, the delivery request management device 20 adds automobile information, such as parking location information of the automobile 1, to the designated delivery destination information based on the user information. (4) At the time of delivery, the delivery person obtains the parking location information of the automobile 1 from the delivery request information and moves there. (5) The delivery person photographs the license plate 2 of the automobile 1 using the delivery person terminal 50. (6) Using the delivery person's terminal 50, the delivery person transmits the license plate and the location information of the delivery person's terminal 50 acquired by a global positioning system (GPS) to the delivery receipt management device 10 via the delivery request management device 20. The delivery receipt management device 10 compares the license plate information and the location information of the delivery person's terminal 50 with the user information, and if the license plate information and the location information of the delivery person's terminal 50 match with the user information and the usage information linked to the user information is registered in the usage information list, the unlocking code is transmitted to the delivery person's terminal 50 via the delivery request management device 20. (7) The delivery person uses the delivery person terminal 50 to hold the unlocking code over the drive recorder 30. (8) The unlocking code recognized by the drive recorder 30 and the video captured by the drive recorder 30 are transmitted to the delivery receipt management device 10. (9) If the unlocking code information matches as a result of the comparison by the delivery receipt management device 10, the delivery receipt management device 10 instructs the drive recorder 30 to unlock the doors. (10) Having received the instruction, the drive recorder 30 unlocks the door, and the delivery person opens the door, delivers the delivery item into the vehicle 1, and closes the door. After that, the delivery person uses the delivery person terminal 50 to transmit the delivery completion information to the delivery receipt management device 10 via the delivery request management device 20. (11) The delivery receipt management device 10 instructs the drive recorder 30 to lock the doors together with the delivery completion information, and the drive recorder 30, upon receiving the instruction, locks the doors.

[0080] An example of the process of the delivery system device 100 in each of the following cases will be described.

[0081] (If the door lock of Car 1 is already unlocked) Even if the doors of the automobile 1 are unlocked when the delivery person arrives, as described above, the delivery person uses the delivery person terminal 50 to transmit the delivery execution information and obtains the unlocking code from the delivery receipt management device 10 via the delivery request management device 20. Then, after delivering the delivery to the automobile 1, the drive recorder 30, which has received instructions from the delivery receipt management device 10, locks the doors as described above.

[0082] (If delivery completion information cannot be obtained) If the delivery receipt management device 10 cannot obtain the delivery completion information, for example because the delivery completion information is not transmitted from the delivery person terminal 50, the delivery receipt management device 10 performs analysis by the video analysis unit 134 as described above. Then, if the analysis confirms that the doors of the automobile 1 are closed, the delivery receipt management device 10 instructs the drive recorder 30 to lock the doors, and the drive recorder 30, upon receiving the instruction, locks the doors. Note that the delivery receipt management device 10 may, for example, notify the delivery request management device 20 by the lock / unlock management unit 13 that the delivery completion information has not been obtained.

[0083] (If the door is not opened for a certain period of time after the door is unlocked) The delivery receipt management device 10, for example, uses the video analysis unit 134 to analyze the video acquired in real time from the drive recorder 30, and confirms whether the doors of the automobile 1 are closed. Then, for example, the lock / unlock instruction unit 133 may instruct the drive recorder 30 to lock the doors when it is confirmed that the doors of the automobile 1 are closed. For example, the lock / unlock instruction unit 133 may instruct the drive recorder to lock the doors after a certain period of time has elapsed. The certain period of time from unlocking the doors until the door is opened, and the certain period of time regarding the locking of the doors are not particularly limited and can be set arbitrarily.

[0084] (If the parcel is delivered to the wrong address) If the delivery person has not yet transmitted the delivery completion information using the delivery person terminal 50, the door lock of the automobile 1 is unlocked, and the mistakenly delivered item is replaced with the correct item. On the other hand, if the door lock is locked, for example, after the delivery completion information is delivered, the delivery request management device 20 again queries the user information list and links the delivery request information with the automobile information. Then, the usage information management unit 135 registers the usage information in the usage information list again. Thereafter, the door lock of the automobile 1 is unlocked and the mistakenly delivered item is replaced with the correct item in the same manner as described above.

[0085] (If car 1 was not there) The delivery person uses the delivery person terminal 50 to notify the delivery request management device 20 that the vehicle 1 is not at the location indicated by the vehicle information. The delivery request management device 20 notifies the target requester of an absence notice. The requester then contacts the delivery company to arrange for redelivery.

[0086] (If you have to go out by car 1) The requester transmits delivery time information indicating a designated delivery time to the delivery request management device 20 and has the delivery person deliver the package at the designated delivery time.

[0087] [Embodiment 4] An example of the user information list, the usage information list, and the delivery request information list is shown in Fig. 7. In the user information list shown in Fig. 7, "ID", "name", and "address" are registered as the user's identification information, and "license plate details", "vehicle type", "car color", and "car location information" are registered as the automobile information. The user information list can be updated as appropriate by the user information management unit 12.

[0088] In the usage information list shown in FIG. 7, a "delivery company", a "usage status" indicating the number of deliveries by the delivery company, and an "unlock status of the vehicle" are registered as the usage information in association with an "ID" which is the identification information of the user in the user information list. In addition, for example, an "unlock registration ID" may be registered in the usage information list as identification information of a user unique to the usage information list. The usage information list can be updated as appropriate by the usage information management unit 135. When the item "usage status" becomes 0, that is, when the delivery is no longer available, the item "usage status" is deleted from the usage information list together with the corresponding item "delivery company". The usage information list may have a structure in which, for example, multiple "delivery companies" and "usage status" indicating the number of deliveries by the delivery company can be registered for one requester (item "ID"). By adopting such a structure for the usage information list, even if there are multiple delivery companies, each process can be executed as described above.

[0089] 7, the user's identification information such as "ID", "name", and "address" are registered, and the designated delivery destination information such as "use of a delivery box, etc." is registered. The delivery request information list can be updated as appropriate by the delivery request information management unit 22.

[0090] [Embodiment 5] The program of the present embodiment is a program for causing a computer to execute each step of the method of the present invention as a procedure. In the present invention, the "procedure" may be read as "processing." The program of the present embodiment may be recorded, for example, in a computer-readable recording medium.
