Delivery Route Scoring for Reduced Vibration Damage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing delivery technologies lack effective methods to improve the quality of delivery by reducing the probability of damage to delivered items during transportation.
Innovation Solution
A system comprising an information processing device and a terminal device associated with a delivery vehicle that scores the driving and route information of delivery personnel based on delivery outcome, determining and presenting optimal route information to other delivery personnel to minimize vibration and potential damage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If delivery is performed using conventional routes without scoring, then delivery speed and simplicity are maintained, but the probability of damage to delivered items increases due to vibration on poor routes
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback by scoring routes based on delivery results and using this score information to select future routes. Delivery results are fed back into the route scoring mechanism, which then influences route selection for subsequent deliveries, creating a continuous improvement loop that reduces item damage over time
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing the route scoring mechanism to automatically select and present optimal routes to delivery personnel without requiring manual evaluation or external intervention. The system serves itself by using its own delivery result data to improve future route selections
2Reliability
If delivery personnel use routes with less vibration to reduce item damage, then delivery quality improves, but delivery time may increase due to longer or less direct routes
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes parameters by evaluating routes based on multiple factors including vibration levels, delivery time, and delivery results. The scoring mechanism balances these parameters to select routes that optimize both delivery quality and time efficiency, rather than prioritizing one parameter in isolation
3Ease of operation
If route information is standardized for all delivery personnel, then operational simplicity is maintained, but the ability to adapt to individual driver skills and conditions is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies local quality by presenting different route information to different delivery personnel based on their individual characteristics and conditions. Instead of uniform route assignment, the system tailors route recommendations to match specific driver skills, vehicle types, and delivery conditions, optimizing performance for each local context

AI summary
A system for scoring an operation of a delivery person who delivers a delivery item includes an information processing device and a terminal device associated with a vehicle operated by the delivery person or the delivery person. The terminal device transmits route information of the vehicle to the information processing device. Next, the information processing device performs scoring on the driving of the delivery person and the route information of the vehicle on the basis of the delivery result information of the delivery object. Then, the information processing device determines route information to be presented to the other delivery person based on the driving of the delivery person or the score of the route information of the vehicle.
