Mobile Lodging Operation Scheduling for Multi-User Boarding Periods
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Providing a lodging service using a mobile object requires a specialized operation schedule that accommodates varying alighting times and locations for multiple users, differing from traditional ride-sharing services, and involves periods where user activity is not required, necessitating a distinct control approach.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device creates an operation schedule with a first period for user riding and alighting, and a second period where user activity is not required, generating different control instructions for the mobile object to optimize its operation, including adjusting speed and performing additional services during the second period.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a mobile object provides lodging service to multiple users with different alighting times and locations, then the service versatility is improved, but the operation schedule complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The operation schedule is segmented into distinct time periods: a first period for user boarding and alighting operations, and a second period for stationary lodging service. This segmentation allows the mobile object to have different operational modes, simplifying the overall scheduling complexity while maintaining versatility in serving multiple users with different requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The mobile object dynamically transitions between different operational states: moving state during the first period for user transportation, and stationary state during the second period for lodging service. This dynamic adaptation enables the system to handle diverse user requirements without requiring complex continuous scheduling.
2Use of energy by moving object
If the mobile object remains stationary during the second period for lodging service, then energy consumption is reduced, but productivity decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile object is designed with multi-functionality, serving both as a transportation vehicle during the first period and as a stationary lodging facility during the second period. This universal design allows the same resource to be utilized for different purposes at different times, improving overall productivity without requiring separate dedicated resources for each function.
Solution Approach 2:
The mobile object maintains continuous useful action by transitioning from transportation service to lodging service. During the first period, it provides mobility service; during the second period, it provides accommodation service. This continuous utilization eliminates idle time and maximizes resource productivity while managing energy consumption appropriately for each operational phase.

AI summary
An information processing device that controls a mobile object including lodging equipment with a plurality of compartments performs: creating an operation schedule including a first period in which movement for allowing a plurality of users to ride in or alight from the mobile object is a main purpose and a second period in which riding and alighting of the users are not required based on lodging requests acquired from the plurality of users; and generating an operation instruction for executing different controls on the mobile object in the first period and the second period and transmitting the operation instruction to the corresponding mobile object.
