[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-005869 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Incidentally, abandoned vehicles in bicycle parking lots or car parks in apartment complexes and other multi-family housing complexes are a major problem for management associations and management companies that manage the complexes, as they can take up limited bicycle or parking spaces for residents, obstruct the passage of other vehicles, and spoil the overall appearance of the complex.

[0005] Although an access control system such as that described in Patent Document 1 can manage vehicles entering and leaving a bicycle parking lot or parking lot, it cannot determine whether a bicycle or vehicle parked in the bicycle parking lot or parking lot is an abandoned vehicle, nor can it prompt the removal of an abandoned vehicle, so there is a problem in that it cannot prevent abandoned vehicles.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and relates to providing an information processing system, information processing method, and program that can prevent bicycles or parked vehicles from being left unattended in bicycle parking lots or parking lots in apartment buildings. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The present invention is an information processing system comprising an acquisition unit that acquires identification information coded on an identification means attached to a vehicle parked in a bicycle parking lot or car park of an apartment complex, a determination unit that determines whether a contract has expired from contract information linked to the identification information, and a transmission unit that, if it is determined that the contract has expired, sends a request to remove the vehicle to a user terminal used by the user who owns the vehicle. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] The information processing system according to the present invention has the effect of preventing bicycles or vehicles parked in bicycle parking lots or car parks of apartment complexes from being left unattended. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0010] (definition) DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Various features shown in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0011] In this invention, "multi-family housing" means a housing complex in which a single building is divided into multiple independent dwellings separated by walls and floors, and specific examples include apartments and condominiums.

[0012] In the present invention, a "vehicle" refers to any vehicle equipped with wheels that travels on land, specifically an automobile, a motorcycle, or a bicycle, with bicycles being preferred. Furthermore, a "bicycle" is used in a broad sense to include not only regular bicycles but also any bicycle that can be parked in a bicycle parking lot, such as a moped (motorcycle) or a bicycle with a power assist mechanism (electrically assisted bicycle).

[0013] In the present invention, a "bicycle parking lot" means a place where bicycles owned by users residing in an apartment complex are parked, and may be located either on or off the premises of the apartment complex. Similarly, a "parking lot" in the present invention means a place where cars and / or motorcycles owned by users residing in an apartment complex are parked, and may be located either on or off the premises of the apartment complex.

[0014] In this specification, "bicycle parking lot or parking area" may be simply referred to as "bicycle parking lot," and "bicycle parking or parking" may be simply referred to as "bicycle parking."

[0015] Incidentally, the program for realizing the software appearing in this embodiment may be provided as a non-transitory computer-readable medium, or may be provided so that it can be downloaded from an external server, or may be provided so that the program is started on an external computer and its functions are realized on a client terminal (so-called cloud computing).

[0016] In this embodiment, the term "unit" may also include, for example, a combination of hardware resources implemented by a circuit in the broad sense and software information processing that can be specifically realized by these hardware resources. In addition, various types of information are handled in this embodiment, and this information may be represented by, for example, physical values ​​of signal values ​​representing voltages and currents, high and low signal values ​​as a binary bit set consisting of 0 or 1, or quantum superposition (so-called quantum bits), and communication and calculations may be performed on a circuit in the broad sense.

[0017] In addition, a circuit in the broad sense is a circuit realized by at least appropriately combining a circuit, circuitry, a processor, a memory, etc. That is, it includes an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a programmable logic device (e.g., a simple programmable logic device (SPLD), a complex programmable logic device (CPLD), and a field programmable gate array (FPGA)), etc.

[0018] 1. Hardware Configuration In the first section, the hardware configuration of the information processing system 1 according to this embodiment will be described.

[0089] In step S102, the generation unit 112 of the information processing device 100 generates identification information for identifying a bicycle or a vehicle parked in a bicycle parking lot or a parking lot of an apartment building. Then, the conversion unit 113 of the information processing device 100 converts the identification information generated by the generation unit 112 into an identification code. Furthermore, the output unit 114 of the information processing device 100 outputs an identification means including the identification code converted by the conversion unit 113.

[0090] Specifically, the generation unit 112 generates identification information including any character string, numbers, or a combination thereof. Then, the conversion unit 113 converts the identification information into a two-dimensional code such as a QR code (registered trademark). Then, the output unit 114 outputs (prints) a two-dimensional code sticker (QR code sticker) including the converted two-dimensional code (QR code).

[0091] The identification means output by the output unit 114 is delivered to the administrator based on the administrator information registered by the registration unit 111.

Specifically, the reception unit 115 transmits an input screen for the real estate contract information to the manager terminal 200, for example.

[0093] In step S104, the control unit 210 of the manager terminal 200 transmits the real estate contract information input by the manager to the information processing device 100.

[0094] In step S105, the registration unit 111 of the information processing device 100 registers the real estate contract information received from the manager terminal 200.

[0095] 3-2. Application processing for bicycle or parking lot use FIG. 10 is a flow diagram showing an example of a bicycle parking lot or parking lot use application process in the information processing system 1 according to this embodiment (steps S201 to S206).

[0096] In step S201, the control unit 310 of the user terminal 300 transmits an application to use a bicycle parking lot or a parking lot to the administrator terminal 200. The application to use a bicycle parking lot or a parking lot includes a user name, contact information (telephone number and / or email address), etc.

[0097] In step S202, the reader 211 of the administrator terminal 200 reads the identification means and transmits the identification information coded in the read identification means to the information processing device 100.

[0098] In step S203, the acquisition unit 116 of the information processing device 100 acquires the identification information received from the administrator terminal 200.

[0099] In step S204, the reception unit 115 of the information processing device 100 receives input of the bicycle parking lot contract information from the manager terminal 200 that read the identification means. Specifically, the reception unit 115 transmits an input screen for the bicycle parking lot contract information to the manager terminal 200, for example.

[0100] In step S205, the control unit 210 of the administrator terminal 200 inputs the bicycle parking lot contract information of the user who has applied to use the bicycle parking lot or parking lot, and transmits the input bicycle parking lot contract information to the information processing device 100.

In this way, by linking and registering the identification information, bicycle parking lot contract information, and real estate contract information, it becomes possible to activate the identification means read by the reading unit 211 of the administrator terminal 200.

[0102] The identification means read by the reading unit 211 of the administrator terminal 200 is provided to the user who applies to use the bicycle parking lot or parking lot, and can be attached to the vehicle owned by the user (a vehicle parked or parked in the bicycle parking lot or parking lot of the apartment building).

[0103] There are no particular limitations on the location where the identification means is attached, but for example, if the vehicle is a bicycle, examples include the handlebars, brake levers, frame, saddle, seat post, pedals, bell, headlamp, key, tire, or basket.

[0104] 3-3.Regular patrol processing FIG. 11 is a flow diagram showing an example of a regular patrol process of a bicycle parking lot or a parking lot in the information processing system 1 according to this embodiment (steps S301 to S309).

[0105] In step S301, the reading unit 211 of the administrator terminal 200 reads the identification means attached to a bicycle or vehicle parked in the bicycle parking lot or parking lot of the apartment complex, and transmits the identification information coded on the read identification means to the information processing 100.

[0106] In step S302, the acquisition unit 116 of the information processing device 100 acquires the identification information received from the administrator terminal 200.

[0107] In step S303, the judgment unit 117 of the information processing device 100 receives the identification information sent from the administrator terminal 200, acquires the real estate contract information or bicycle parking lot contract information registered in association with the identification information, and determines whether the real estate contract or bicycle parking lot contract has terminated.

[0108] If it is determined in step S304 that the real estate contract or bicycle parking lot contract has expired, the transmission unit 118 of the information processing device 100 transmits a request to remove the vehicle to the user terminal 300 of the user who owns the vehicle. The transmission unit 118 may also transmit the determination result by the determination unit 117 to the administrator terminal 200. This allows the administrator to easily determine whether the vehicle is an abandoned vehicle or not.

[0109] In step S305, the control unit 310 of the user terminal 300 receives the request to remove the vehicle transmitted from the information processing device 100. This makes it possible to prompt the user who owns the vehicle to remove the vehicle.

[0110] In step S306, the determination unit 117 of the information processing device 100 determines whether the real estate contract or the bicycle parking lot contract will expire within a predetermined period based on the real estate contract information or the bicycle parking lot contract information.

[0111] If it is determined in step S307 that the real estate contract or bicycle parking lot contract will expire within the predetermined period, the transmission unit 118 of the information processing device 100 transmits a contract expiration notice to the user terminal 300 of the user who owns the vehicle, notifying that the real estate contract or bicycle parking lot contract will expire. The transmission unit 118 may also transmit the determination result by the determination unit 117 to the administrator terminal 200. This allows the administrator to easily know whether the contract for the vehicle will expire within the predetermined period.

[0112] In step S308, the control unit 310 of the user terminal 300 receives the contract termination notice transmitted from the information processing device 100. This allows the user to start preparations for removing the vehicle or start procedures for renewing the real estate contract or bicycle parking lot contract.

[0113] In step S309, the registration unit 111 of the information processing device 100 registers the patrol information including the determination result of the determination unit 117. The registration unit 111 may register the patrol information for each vehicle or each bicycle parking lot number, or may register the patrol information collectively after the patrol ends.

[0114] An example of the regular patrol process of a bicycle parking lot or a parking lot has been explained above, but it goes without saying that the determination process of steps S303 to S305 and the determination process of steps S306 to S308 may be performed in any order or simultaneously.

[0115] 3-4. Lost vehicle notification processing FIG. 12 is a flow diagram showing an example of lost vehicle notification processing in the information processing system 1 according to this embodiment (steps S401 to S409).

[0116] In step S401, the control unit 310 of the user terminal 300 transmits loss information of a vehicle owned by the user to the information processing device 100. Note that the control unit 310 of the user terminal 300 may transmit the loss information to the information processing device 100 via the administrator terminal 200.

[0117] In step S402, the registration unit 111 of the information processing device 100 registers the loss information transmitted from the user terminal 300. Specifically, the registration unit 111 registers the loss information transmitted from the user terminal 300 in association with the identification information of the lost vehicle.

[0118] In step S403, if the lost vehicle is found, the reading unit 211 of the administrator terminal 200 reads the identification means attached to the vehicle and transmits the identification information coded in the identification means to the information processing terminal 100.

[0119] In step S404 , the acquisition unit 116 of the information processing terminal 100 acquires the identification information received from the administrator terminal 200 .

[0120] In step S405, the determination unit 117 of the information processing terminal 100 receives the identification information from the administrator terminal 200 that read the identification means, and determines whether or not there is any loss information linked to the received identification information, thereby determining whether or not the vehicle is a lost vehicle.

[0121] If it is determined in step S406 that the vehicle is a lost vehicle, the request unit 119 of the information processing terminal 100 requests the administrator terminal 200 to transmit the location information of the administrator terminal 200 that read the identification means.

[0122] In step S407, the administrator terminal 200 transmits the location information of the administrator terminal 200 to the information processing device 100. This makes it possible to obtain the location information of the lost vehicle.

[0123] In step S408 , the transmitting unit 118 of the information processing device 100 transmits the location information of the administrator terminal 200 , that is, the location information of the lost vehicle, to the user terminal 300 .

[0124] In step S409, the control unit 310 of the user terminal 300 receives the location information of the lost vehicle, which allows the user to easily ascertain the location information of the lost vehicle.

[0125] The above describes an example of a lost vehicle notification process, but the terminal that reads the identification means attached to the lost vehicle is not limited to the administrator terminal 200, but may be a terminal device used by any third party depending on the location where the lost vehicle was lost.
