Autonomous Vehicle Post-Exit Routing With Real-Time User Input
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing automatic driving vehicles require users to pre-register schedule information, making it burdensome and limiting the ability to provide real-time instructions after getting in, especially regarding actions post-exit.
Innovation Solution
An automatic driving vehicle equipped with behavior setup receiving means and control means that allow users to input and execute behaviors post-exit, such as moving to a designated parking spot or waiting at a specific location, using a touch panel and authentication systems for secure operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If schedule information is pre-registered in advance, then the automatic driving vehicle can autonomously determine when and where to pick up users, but the user operation becomes burdensome and flexible real-time instructions cannot be provided
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-registers schedule information containing pickup locations and times in advance, enabling the automatic driving vehicle to autonomously determine when and where to pick up users without requiring real-time manual input, thus resolving the contradiction between automation and operational burden
2Loss of time
If the automatic driving vehicle waits at the current location after user exits, then the user can quickly re-board, but the vehicle cannot respond to user instructions for moving to different locations
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the vehicle's waiting behavior based on user instructions received in real-time. Instead of a fixed wait-at-current-location rule, the vehicle can move to different locations or wait at specified places according to user commands, resolving the contradiction between quick re-boarding and location flexibility
3Ease of operation
If the vehicle moves to estimated pickup locations automatically, then convenience is improved, but security and user control are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the vehicle receives and responds to user instructions in real-time. Users can provide commands to move to specific locations or wait at current positions, and the vehicle executes these commands with confirmation, maintaining both convenience and user control authority

AI summary
An automatic driving vehicle includes an automatic driving mode in which autonomous traveling is carried out. The automatic driving vehicle receives a setting for a behavior after getting out from the automatic driving vehicle. The setting includes information of a destination and a time period and/or a clock time which are designated by a user of the automatic driving vehicle. The automatic driving vehicle is controlled based on the information to automatically drive to the destination by an appointed time.
